In an effort to promote AI led innovation in India, the National Association of Software and Services Companies (NASSCOM) along with Microsoft has launched the ‘AI Gamechangers’ program. As part of NASSCOM’s AI for India mission, the program seeks to recognize impactful and scalable AI-based innovation in the country. Microsoft is the ‘Innovation Partner’ for the program.

NASSCOM and Microsoft will work closely to develop and promote the AI Gamechangers program, built on a shared commitment towards accelerating the adoption of AI across key sectors.

The program will recognize innovators for their successful AI implementation at NASSCOM’s Xperience AI Summit, one of the largest AI Summits in India.

This will serve as a platform for startups, enterprises, academia, governments, and NGOs to showcase their AI based products and solutions, providing reach and impetus to drive AI innovation for the country.

“While the country continues to leap forward to become the global innovation hub, we expect AI to unlock $500 Bn of value to India’s GDP by 2025,” said Debjani Ghosh, President, NASSCOM.

“Through this program, we aim to spotlight some of the leading AI-based innovations in the country,” she added.

The success stories of the AI innovators will be featured in an accompanying annual compendium, which will be released at the Xperience AI Summit.

Sharing his thoughts on the program, Anant Maheshwari, President – Microsoft India, said, “Cloud led data and AI innovation offers a huge canvas for India to be the tech engine of the world and drive homegrown innovation. Data and AI are driving transformation at scale across industries and offer a tremendous opportunity to transform public infrastructure and solve some of the most critical issues facing the country today. We are proud to partner with NASSCOM on the AI Gamechangers program to create a strong ecosystem that recognizes and supports AI led innovation in the country.”
