Who Will Build India's $250B AI Dream?

TL;DR Summary
At the India AI Impact Summit, commitments total about $250 billion with major partnerships (Google, Microsoft; Infosys with Anthropic; TCS with OpenAI; HCLTech with OpenAI) and a ready AI platforms ecosystem, but analysts warn of a severe talent shortage: India needs roughly 25,000 AI Agent Developers (only ~3,000 available) and AI Agent Architects are in even shorter supply. Digital Edify positions itself as a scalable solution, training over 100,000 professionals and launching an AI Agent Center of Excellence to close the gap as the AI boom accelerates.
