Amazon invests $35B in India's AI infrastructure
Amazon has committed to invest over $35 billion in India's cloud and AI infrastructure by 2030, announced at the Amazon Smbhav Summit in New Delhi. This builds on nearly $40 billion already invested in the country. The initiative aims to drive AI-powered digitalization, export growth, and job creation, potentially generating millions of jobs and supporting 15 million small businesses with AI benefits. Amazon positions this as aligning with India's national priorities for building a local AI ecosystem. The investment follows Microsoft's recent pledge of $17.5 billion in India's AI infrastructure, intensifying the hyperscaler competition. Experts highlight the lack of adequate compute infrastructure for AI models as a major opportunity. Amazon's AWS subsidiary is already expanding fulfillment centers, data centers, and payment infrastructure in India.
