Mukesh Ambani had a fireside chat with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in Mumbai on Thursday. The two prominent leaders shared the stage at Jio World Centre during the three-day Nvidia AI Summit India, where they talked about advancements in artificial intelligence and India’s expanding tech landscape.

The highlight of their discussion came at the very start, when Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani credited his wife, Nita Ambani, as the mastermind behind the Jio World Centre.

Nita Ambani’s Guidance to Mukesh Ambani

After Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang welcomed Mukesh Ambani, praising him as an “industry pioneer” who played a crucial role in India’s digital transformation, he remarked, “No one has contributed more, Mukesh, to make India a high-tech and deep-tech nation. You’re just beginning this journey with grand ambitions. What drives you to believe that artificial intelligence is India’s moment?”

Mukesh Ambani, 67, responded by thanking Huang for being in Mumbai and, more specifically, at the Jio World Centre, which he humorously noted was built by his wife.

“We’re here at the Jio World Center, which is new, and it was built by my wife. So, if I don’t mention that, I’ve been instructed to,” Ambani said, sparking laughter from the Nvidia CEO.

What is Jio World Centre?

Jio World Centre is a vast, multi-functional complex in Mumbai’s Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC). Spanning 18.5 acres, it is a hub for business, entertainment, culture, and retail activities. 

As part of the Ambani family’s goal to create world-class infrastructure in India, the Jio World Centre includes several prominent features such as the Dhirubhai Ambani Square, the Jio World Convention Centre, Jio World Drive, and Nita Ambani’s cherished project—the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre.

The center has been developed in stages, with parts of it inaugurated in 2021. Further developments are expected to be completed over time.

Reliance-Nvidia Deal

Nvidia has agreed with Mukesh Ambani’s conglomerate, Reliance Industries, to develop advanced artificial intelligence (AI) computing infrastructure and establish an innovation center in India. A new major data center by Reliance Industries will be powered by Nvidia’s latest Blackwell AI chips.

The collaboration between Reliance and Nvidia is focused on creating a strong AI infrastructure in India, a move that Mukesh Ambani believes will boost domestic capabilities while positioning the country as a key contender in the global artificial intelligence landscape.
