14th December 2023: The Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) Summit 2023, inaugurated by Hon. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, showcased India’s vibrant tech ecosystem and its influential role in shaping the global AI landscape.
GPAI is a multi-stakeholder initiative with 29 member countries, which aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice on AI by supporting cutting-edge research and applied activities on AI-related priorities. Multiple sessions on diverse topics like AI & global health, education and skilling, AI and data governance, and ML Workshop, among others were organised during the summit. Other attractions at the summit included Research Symposium, AI Gamechangers Award, and India AI Expo.
Top AI Gamechangers from across the world were seen participating in different events including Intel, Reliance Jio, Google, Meta, AWS, Yotta, Netweb, Paytm, Microsoft, Mastercard, NIC, STPI, Immerse, Jio Haptik, Bhashini etc.
Almonds AI’s experience platform Virtex was tasked with the online hosting responsibility of the event which was also simultaneously held at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi for physical interaction. The summit which emerged as a beacon of India’s prowess in the realm of artificial intelligence became the talk of the town among global participants.
Online hosting and participation in events have seen a major upswing in the last few years, majorly due to the impact of the covid pandemic. Even as there is a sense of normalcy in the post covid era, online hosting remains the default option for global events like the GPAI Summit, where international participation and collaboration is a must in addition to offline activities.
Almonds AI’s Virtex was chosen to host the event after careful deliberation and due diligence by MeitY which initiated the process by inviting multiple agencies and platforms for a pitch via the government mandated tendering process. ATechnos was also chosen as the agency partner for the event following the same process.
Abhinav Jain & Apurv Modi, Co-Founders, Almonds AI jointly said, “We are thrilled by the overwhelming success of the GPAI Summit 2023 and the pivotal role played by ATechnos and the Almonds AI experience platform in enabling thousands of global visitors to securely access the summit on a 100% made in India platform. This summit heralds a new era of AI-powered engagement, positioning India as a frontrunner in driving technological advancements and fostering international cooperation.”
The seamless integration of physical and virtual realms via Almonds AI, raises the benchmark for international collaboration and paves the way for a future powered by cutting-edge AI-driven solutions which are capable of hosting thousands of global participants online.
In 2020, the India International Science Festival – IISF 2020, hosted on Almonds Ai’s Virtex platform bagged five Guinness World Records, most notably for the world’s largest online event attended in a week.
The platform shone light on India’s rapid advancements in AI technology, showcasing the nation as a frontrunner in driving innovation.
