Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL) chairman Akash Ambani, while speaking at the Mumbai Tech Week 2025, shared his thoughts on the future of tech and AI in India and the role of public-private partnership while praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision.
“You know, I think we’re extremely lucky to be under the visionary leadership of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi on this. I think, you know, it is the biggest blessing of our country to have a leader like him leading this mission. Recently, you know, at Parliament he mentioned that AI does not only just start for artificial intelligence. It actually stands for Aspiring Indian,” he said during a fireside chat with Harsh Jain, co-founder & CEO, Dream Sports. “It’s not, not my quote, it’s our Prime Minister’s quote. So. And I think that is really the core mission that we should be. We should always look to aspire to greater heights. I think what he’s done with the AI mission of this country is exemplary.”
India is among the first nations to make AI a priority, he said. “And it’s not only for the country but, you know, it’s a place of collaboration that we can have with the world. Again, you know, I think he’s already set out the vision and we need to make sure that we go. And the one thing about this government is they work on a very, very fast basis. They want to. So it’s for the private industries to work at that pace, continue to, you know, innovate at, you know, very, very fast pace. Where they be at the infrastructure level, whether it be at, you know, the products and services layer that is going to be enabling,” he said.
