AI Hub

Google plans to invest $15 billion in a new AI hub in southern India, its largest outside the U.S., over the next five years. This signals India’s growing strategic importance in the global tech landscape. Raiden Infotech, Google’s Indian subsidiary, will build three campuses in Visakhapatnam. This investment, part of Google’s increased $85 billion capital expenditure forecast for 2025, aligns with its $25 billion investment in US data centers. Microsoft and AWS are also investing heavily in India, fueling competition and innovation within the sector.
