India has an opportunity to create a trillion-dollar digital economy by 2025,
benefitting all sectors and people. To enable this growth and become a global
tech powerhouse, we need collaboration from all stakeholders. Our partnership
with the Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution India focuses on developing
a multistakeholder community to leverage Fourth Industrial Revolution
technologies for critical challenges on health, education, smart cities and
agriculture. AI for India 2030 is an important initiative in partnership with MeitY,
enabling stakeholders across industry and start-ups to partner with government
to realize the potential of AI.

Telangana deserves the sobriquet of ‘The Future State’, given its current set of
game-changing projects such as the AI city, Net Zero Future City, and massive
reimagining of Hyderabad. To successfully carry out these pioneering projects,
we believe it is essential to bring together the combined efforts of industry
bodies, government ministries, start-ups and academic professionals. Over the
past six years, our collaboration with C4IR India has helped establish a platform
that unites these diverse stakeholders, accelerating the adoption of Fourth
Industrial Revolution technologies in Telangana and driving meaningful impact
across sectors like agriculture and health. We look forward to strengthening our
partnership with the centre as it expands into new areas, including advanced
energy, AI, manufacturing and other emerging technologies.
