"India Poised to Become Global AI Hub, Says Nadir Godrej"

Nadir Godrej, MD of Godrej Industries, highlighted India's potential to become a global hub for Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions, drawing from its success in technology and Global Capability Centres (GCCs). He emphasized that India's vision of becoming a "Viksit Bharat" by 2047 will be driven by progressive reforms, improved business conditions, empowerment through education, and the country's advantage in emerging technologies.

"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.
