IBM has recently signed three MoUs with the MeitY (Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology) to accelerate innovation in AI semiconductor, and quantum tech in India. This action will help MeitY access IBM’s expertise for developing and advancing India’s competency.
On the flip side, these MoUs will streamline India’s growth mission in the AI, semiconductor, and quantum industries. IBM cites that the cooperation’s motive is to elevate the comprehensive national strategy of India for AI innovation. This also strengthens the efforts of the country to be self-reliant in semiconductors and advance its National Quantum Mission.
“Semiconductors, AI, and Quantum present tremendous opportunities for our academic, startups, and innovation ecosystem” – MoS Rajeev Chandrasekhar.
The activities are intended to focus on the following
– Establishing a world-class national AI Innovation Platform (AIIP) to focus on AI training, ecosystem development, and integrating advanced foundation models and generative AI capabilities with access to the IBM watsonx AI and data platform.
– Cooperating with India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) to establish a research center that catalyzes the development of the semiconductor R&D ecosystem in India for which IBM would be a knowledge partner.
– Intention to collaborate with MeitTY’s C-DAC with the aim of growing the quantum workforce, developing applications, and fostering economic opportunities in India toward building a quantum industry.
