India’s AI opportunity hinges on solving its compute and infrastructure gap with sovereign, scalable solutions. As AI demand surges, GCCs & enterprises face high costs, data residency challenges, and regulatory complexity. This session explores how sovereign AI factories—integrating GPU-rich infrastructure, open cloud platforms, and local data centers—can enable cost-effective, high-performance AI development at scale. Drawing on Yotta’s role in the IndiaAI Mission and its partnerships across government and enterprise, we’ll demonstrate how India is building a globally benchmarked AI ecosystem rooted in digital independence and enterprise-grade readiness.
This talk presents a strategic, low-risk pathway to AI maturity through the Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model. Attendees will gain insight into how organizations can leverage an unified platform to accelerate AI adoption, build business capability, and retain full control of AI initiatives—without the typical pitfalls associated with in-house development or commercial solutions.
Key takeaways include:
• What an AI Center of Excellence is—and why it matters.
• How the BOT model mitigates risk during Agentic AI transformation.
• Real-world examples of successful AI CoEs implemented.
In this interactive case-study roundtable, attendees will collaborate in small groups to analyze real-world examples of successful partnerships between GCCs, startups, and service providers. Through guided discussions, participants will uncover best practices, identify challenges, and co-create actionable frameworks for effective cross-sector collaboration.
