First revealed in September 2023, Nvidia has reaffirmed its dedication to establishing a foundation for AI infrastructure in India. They have teamed up with Reliance Industries, a major conglomerate based in Mumbai.
A Great Moment for India
During Nvidia's AI Summit in Mumbai, Mukesh Ambani, the Chairman of Reliance, stated, “This presents a fantastic chance for India” to leverage its “large pool of computer engineers.” Together, the two firms will work towards creating a scalable power infrastructure, which will have a capacity of 1 gigawatt and utilize green energy sources.
Building AI Infrastructure
“To lead in artificial intelligence, it’s crucial to have AI tech that India possesses, data, and finally, an AI infrastructure,” Huang noted, as reported by Mint. He announced the partnership between Reliance and Nvidia to construct this AI infrastructure in India.
Previous Collaborations
In the previous year, the two companies had pledged to develop AI supercomputers in India, aiming to create extensive LLMs that are trained in local languages. Nvidia will supply the necessary technology while Reliance will oversee the infrastructure’s maintenance. In addition to Reliance, Nvidia has also disclosed collaborations with several Indian IT companies, such as Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Tech Mahindra, Infosys, and Wipro.
