How does making the ViewBoard IN03 and CN01 locally align with the ‘Make in India’ initiative and benefit the tech ecosystem?

The local manufacturing of the ViewBoard IN03 and CN01 series strongly supports the Make-in-India initiative by reducing dependence on imports and strengthening India’s self-reliance in advanced display technology. ViewSonic not only contributes to the government’s vision of boosting indigenous manufacturing but also benefits the wider tech ecosystem through faster supply chains and improved after-sales service. It further empowers local vendors and encourages innovation that is specifically tailored to Indian needs.

Will local manufacturing help you offer faster deliveries or better prices for Indian customers?

Local manufacturing of our ViewBoard IN03 and CN01 series marks an important milestone in our journey in India. By producing these products within the country, we will not only be able to shorten delivery timelines but also make our solutions more cost-effective and accessible to Indian customers. It gives us the agility to respond faster to market needs, customise solutions in line with local preferences, and build stronger supply chain resilience. This step also directly aligns with the government of India’s ‘Make in India’ initiative, which aims to reduce dependence on imports and promote indigenous manufacturing. For ViewSonic, this is more than just a manufacturing decision — it reflects our long-term commitment to empowering Indian customers and strengthening the local tech ecosystem.

How is ViewSonic planning to address the growing demand for interactive and smart displays among Indian consumers?

By producing within the country, we can better balance demand and supply and ensure quicker deliveries. It also gives us the flexibility to respond faster to market needs. More importantly, local manufacturing allows us to customise solutions for Indian consumers, businesses, and educational institutions. This makes it easier for them to adopt advanced display technologies seamlessly and cost-effectively.

Are there any new consumer-focused innovations in the pipeline that leverage local manufacturing advantages?

ViewSonic is actively using the advantages of local manufacturing in India not only to improve efficiency but also to create consumer-focused innovations. Our goal is to address India’s unique needs in both education and business. The success of the ViewBoard IN03 and CN01 series shows how local production can help us build strong momentum in the market. These products were designed with Indian users in mind and reflect our ability to adapt quickly. Looking ahead, we are working on smarter, more sustainable, and context-aware technologies. These innovations will make our solutions even more relevant, user-friendly, and impactful for Indian consumers and institutions.
