India’s technology exporters are stepping up efforts to expand their presence in Cambodia, with a high-level business delegation visiting Phnom Penh to explore partnerships in electronics, software, and information and communication technology (ICT).
The three-day visit, organised under the Electronics and Computer Software Export Promotion Council (ESC) in collaboration with the Embassy of India in Cambodia, brought together 12 delegates from nine leading Indian technology companies representing a wide range of advanced technology sectors.
The India-Cambodia B2B Interaction on Electronics, Software and ICT attracted more than 100 Cambodian participants, including representatives from government agencies, major banks, business associations, startups, and technology firms. The event has emerged as one of the largest bilateral technology networking platforms between the two countries in recent years.
The Indian delegation showcased expertise across artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity, fintech, agritech, electric vehicle technologies, semiconductors, drone solutions, and digital transformation services. Industry leaders highlighted India’s capability to provide end-to-end technology solutions that align with Cambodia’s growing digital economy.
Senior executives from leading Cambodian financial institutions, including ABA Bank, ACLEDA Bank, Vattanac Bank, Wing Bank, and Bridge Bank, participated in discussions aimed at expanding fintech collaboration, digital banking services, cybersecurity solutions, and financial technology partnerships.
According to industry estimates, Cambodia’s ICT market is expected to register double-digit annual growth, supported by internet penetration exceeding 80 percent of the population. This presents significant opportunities for Indian technology exporters looking to strengthen their footprint in Southeast Asia.
India’s technology exports to Cambodia have also shown steady growth over the past five years. Technology-driven exports increased from USD 5.41 million in 2021-22 to USD 7.99 million in 2025-26, with electronic components accounting for a major share of shipments. Consumer electronics, telecom equipment, computer hardware, and software solutions continue to contribute to the expanding trade relationship.
During the visit, the Indian delegation also held discussions with Cambodia’s Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications on strengthening cooperation in digital infrastructure, semiconductor development, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies.
Industry representatives believe the engagement has laid the foundation for long-term collaboration between the two countries, creating new export opportunities for Indian technology companies while supporting Cambodia’s digital transformation agenda. With demand for advanced digital solutions continuing to rise across Southeast Asia, Indian firms are expected to play an increasingly important role in the region’s technology ecosystem.
