Every Major AI CEO Is in India Right Now. Here's Why That Matters.
Sam Altman, Sundar Pichai, and Dario Amodei are all at the same summit this week. India is making its play to become the next AI superpower.
Something unusual is happening in New Delhi this week. The CEOs of OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are all in the same room. Along with world leaders from France, Brazil, and dozens of other countries.
India is hosting the AI Impact Summit 2026, and it's a big deal. It's the first major global AI summit hosted outside of the US or Europe. Over 600 AI startups are showing off their tech.
Why India? Simple math. 1.4 billion people, a massive tech workforce, and a government that's rolling out the red carpet for AI investment. India wants to be where AI gets built, not just where it gets used.
For regular people, this matters because wherever AI development concentrates, that's where the jobs, money, and innovation follow. India is making a serious bid to be the next Silicon Valley for AI.
The summit runs through February 20. Expect big announcements.
