This 79th Independence Day, India not just celebrates freedom but is showcasing its rise as a global innovation and technology leader. The nation is leading in advanced manufacturing, AI Defence Tech, renewable energy, medtech and space exploration, which were driven by Aatmanirbhar Bharat, Make in India and Startup India in the past decade.
This clearly shows that India, as a nation, has risen into the top 40 Global Innovation Index. The R&D hubs, startups and established tech companies in India are the major role players in bringing this massive shift in the ecosystem and in delivering breakthroughs that once seemed out of reach
Innovation Across Strategic Sectors
India’s innovation is visible across domains such as:
- Space & Aerospace: India is leading the world in economical exploration, from Chandrayaan-3 to reusable launch vehicle designs.
- Defence and Security: National security is being strengthened by domestic radar systems, drones, and AI-powered monitoring tools.
- Digital Infrastructure: Global best practices for inclusive technology adoption have been redefined by platforms such as Aadhaar and UPI.
- Healthcare and Medtech: Accessibility is being improved and reliance on imports is being decreased by domestic critical care solutions.
A growing culture of scientific entrepreneurship, powerful policy frameworks, and extensive public-private partnership have all contributed to this progress.

The Medtech Frontline of Innovation
Both the national defence as well as the civilian healthcare needs medical innovation. The crucial hour after physical trauma, the Golden Hour which saves lives, has a major direct impact on military preparedness, public safety, and disaster response.
The Medtech industry in India is competing with established global brands by producing capable products that ensure strategic autonomy in the field of health security. Among these, Axiostat Military is one of the best examples of how innovation can fulfill mission-critical performance.
Axiostat Military – Battlefield-Ready, Made in India
Axiostat Military, a next-gen haemostatic dressing, is developed by Axio Biosolutions and is designed for rapid blood control, especially during combat and high-risk environments. Its fundamental component is Protonated Bio-Adhesive Technology (PBT®), an invention based on chitosan that adheres firmly to the tissue and prevents severe bleeding in a matter of minutes.

Why It Matters
- Combat Proven: Axiostat has demonstrated its dependability in high-stakes operations while serving alongside the Indian Army, Navy, Air Force, and paramilitary organisations like the BSF and CRPF. Axiostat is utilised extensively in operations by Northern Command and Eastern Command, and special force units like the Rashtriya Rifles carry it for all significant missions. For CAPF forces like the BSF, CRPF, and SSB, it has emerged as the preferred haemostat in high-conflict zones.
- Mission-Specific Variants: MIL300 Z-Fold Gauze, MIL150 Rolled Gauze, and MIL88 Patch are all designed for various wound kinds and situations.
- Extreme Readiness: With a shelf-life of 5 years, packed in durable vacuum-camouflaged bags, it is available for reliable use in challenging circumstances.
- Global Trust: It is used in more than 40 countries, with NSN codification, and USFDA 510(k) clearance. Furthermore, Axiostat has been significant in programmes like Operation Sindoor and “Stop the Bleed” campaign in India, which is run by our training partner and aims to give security forces critical haemorrhage control skills.
In addition to providing the product, Axio Biosolutions ensures that soldiers and responders can utilise Axiostat efficiently, under stressful conditions on the battlefield by offering combat medic training programmes through the Axio Academy of Clinical Excellence (AACE).
