Amazon announced on Thursday an additional investment of USD 13 billion by 2030 in India to expand its AI and cloud infrastructure, bringing its total planned investment in the country to USD 48 billion through 2030. The announcement followed a meeting between Amazon CEO Andy Jassy and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi. Jassy stated that Amazon’s business priorities align with India’s priorities of democratizing access to AI, digitizing small businesses, creating jobs, and enabling exports. The USD 13 billion investment will support AI and cloud infrastructure across the Mumbai and Hyderabad regions, expanding AWS data center capacity to provide startups, enterprises, and government organisations access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, and secure cloud technologies.
