India is rapidly emerging as a global hub for artificial intelligence (AI) innovation, largely driven by over 2,000 startups participating in NVIDIA’s Inception program. These companies are utilizing NVIDIA’s advanced computing technology to develop AI solutions that cater to both local and global markets, according to NVIDIA Blog.
Transforming Industries with AI
The NVIDIA Inception program provides Indian startups with essential tools for growth, including technical training, go-to-market support, and connections with venture capitalists. The program’s impact is evident as India ranks among the top six global economies leading generative AI adoption. The country’s startup ecosystem has dramatically expanded, boasting over 100,000 startups today, compared to less than 500 in 2016.
Conversational AI Enhancing Railway Services
Bengaluru-based CoRover.ai exemplifies the transformative power of AI. The startup’s conversational AI platform, which supports over a billion users, is integrated with the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC). Known as AskDISHA, this AI-driven chatbot handles more than 150,000 queries daily, significantly enhancing customer service efficiency and satisfaction.
Revolutionizing Sports Media
Mumbai’s VideoVerse is another standout startup, leveraging AI to revolutionize sports media content creation. Its AI models enable rapid generation of sports highlights, boosting viewer engagement across platforms. By utilizing NVIDIA’s CUDA libraries and Tensor Core GPUs, VideoVerse enhances content creation workflows for major sports leagues worldwide.
