India Emerges As Global Hub For AI Given Its Tech Prowess

Bhopal: India has the potential to emerge as a key hub for Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions to the world, Nadir Godrej, MD of Godrej Industries has said citing the nation’s success in the domains like technology and GCCs.

Godrej further said that India’s vision of ‘Viksit Bharat’ by 2047 will be fuelled by progressive reforms, ease of doing business, empowerment through education, and the country’s edge in new-age technologies. He also advocated increasing the participation of women in workforce. “As the economy expands, there will be more and more consumers in India, so that will be a big growth factor. With things like Artificial Intelligence, India has a lot of potential, and hopefully we’ll see a lot coming out of India,” he said and added that the country can replicate its success in the IT industry, in AI domain as well.

“Like our IT industry, we could also be a centre for providing AI to the rest of the world. Our Global Capability Centres (GCCs) are doing very well, and we could have GCCs in some of these newer technologies as well,” he said.
