Ambani announces AI-focused collaboration with Google Cloud to deliver clean energy-powered data infrastructure and scalable AI adoption in India.
Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) Chairman Mukesh Ambani announced a deeper partnership with Google to accelerate artificial intelligence (AI) adoption across Reliance’s diverse businesses. Speaking at the company’s 48th Annual General Meeting (AGM), Ambani said the tie-up will combine Reliance’s execution scale with Google’s cloud and AI expertise.
“Through this partnership, we are marrying Reliance’s proven capability to build world-class assets and execute at India’s scale with Google’s leading cloud and AI technologies, so that developers, start-ups, and enterprises can innovate faster, operate more securely, and reach every corner of India,” Ambani said.
Jamnagar Cloud Region
As part of the collaboration, Google and Reliance will establish a dedicated Jamnagar Cloud Region, powered by Reliance’s clean energy ecosystem and connected through Jio’s advanced network infrastructure. The facility will serve as a core hub for AI and compute infrastructure, designed specifically to scale Reliance’s AI ambitions.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai described the partnership as a transformative step for India’s AI economy.
“Google and Reliance are partnering to help all of Reliance’s businesses transform, using AI – from Energy and Retail to Telecom and Financial Services. Together we are establishing a Jamnagar Cloud region, built for and dedicated to Reliance,” Pichai said.
Scaling AI Across Businesses
Pichai added that Google Cloud is already powering Reliance’s mission-critical workloads and is co-innovating with the company on advanced AI initiatives. With Reliance’s scale and Jio’s reach, the collaboration aims to put AI tools into the hands of businesses and individuals across India, from startups to large enterprises.
“India has always been a special place to Google. It is home to some of the world’s most dynamic businesses, a thriving start-up ecosystem, and incredible creativity and ambition,” Pichai added.
The partnership cements Google’s role as Reliance’s largest public cloud partner, while creating a foundation for large-scale AI deployment across India.
