Akash Ambani recently spoke at the Mumbai Tech Week 2025 at the Jio World Centre and stressed the importance of AI in India’s future. He said that AI will be the key driver of India’s economic growth, helping the country achieve a 10 per cent or double-digit growth rate in the coming years.

To make India a leader in AI, Ambani highlighted three fundamental areas of focus: AI infrastructure, research and development, and skilled talent.
