Scope of Partnership

Some of the key focal points of this partnership include building industry-specific Agentic AI solutions, joint go-to-market (GTM) initiatives, and developing AI infrastructure.

Amid the ongoing India AI Impact Summit, IT majors have put their best foot forward amid concerns of the impact that AI may have on these Tech behemoths.

Sam Altman of OpenAI shared his thoughts and said, “India is already leading the way in AI adoption, and with its talent, ambition, and strong government support, it is well placed to help shape its future."

N Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons, said, “This deep collaboration between OpenAI and Tata Group marks a major milestone in India’s vision to become a global leader in AI. We are pleased to partner with OpenAI to create state-of-the-art AI infrastructure in India."
