Gautam Adani inaugurates Sharad Pawar AI Centre in Baramati, Pune

Industrialist Gautam Adani on Sunday inaugurated the Sharadchandra Pawar Centre of Excellence in Artificial Intelligence in Baramati, Pune, marking a significant step toward strengthening India’s AI ecosystem.

The centre, established under Vidya Pratishthan, is designed as a research and training hub to build advanced AI capabilities and create industry-ready talent. Senior leaders, including Sharad Pawar, Supriya Sule, Ajit Pawar, and Sunetra Pawar, were present at the inauguration.

Addressing the gathering, Adani described Sharad Pawar as a mentor of over three decades and credited his leadership for transforming Baramati through education, cooperatives, and rural development. He said the region reflects what focused vision and sustained institution-building can achieve.

Emphasising the growing importance of artificial intelligence, Adani said India’s future growth will depend on its ability to develop indigenous AI models, data systems, and digital infrastructure, cautioning against excessive dependence on foreign technologies. He urged young Indians to take the lead in shaping the “age of intelligence.”

The new centre is expected to support advanced research, skill development, and practical AI applications, with a focus on linking innovation to real-world needs across sectors, including rural and emerging industries. The initiative positions Baramati as an emerging destination for technology-driven education and industry–academia collaboration.

IIT Dhanbad hosts Adani’s USD 75 billion clean energy vision

At the 100th anniversary of IIT (ISM) Dhanbad on December 9, Gautam Adani, chairman of the Adani Group, laid out a bold vision for India’s clean-energy future. He announced that his group plans to invest over USD 75 billion in the next five years to accelerate the country’s energy transition, making India a global leader in renewable power.

Adani revealed that the first 10 gigawatts of renewable energy under this programme have already been commissioned. He outlined plans to build the world’s largest renewable energy park at Khavda, Gujarat, covering 520 square kilometres. Once fully operational by 2030, the park is expected to generate 30 GW of green energy, enough to power over 60 million Indian homes annually.

He described this as a push for “the world’s lowest-cost green electron,” aiming to set a global benchmark in energy transition. Adani urged students and young engineers to recognize the historic opportunity: as industries worldwide move toward decarbonisation, sectors like steel, hydrogen, manufacturing, and digital infrastructure will increasingly rely on clean energy.

Beyond energy, Adani announced two major initiatives for IIT Dhanbad students. The Adani Annual Internship Programme will provide 50 paid internships every year to third-year students, with at least 25% likely to receive pre-placement offers. This gives students a direct pathway into one of India’s largest business groups.

In addition, the Adani 3S Mining Excellence Centre, in collaboration with TEXMiN, will offer a hi-tech ecosystem for research and training in responsible mining. Students will gain hands-on experience with drones, seismic sensing, metaverse labs, and precision blasting technologies, bridging classroom learning with real-world applications.

Adani concluded by urging students to understand the “language of the earth,” use natural resources wisely, and contribute to India’s rise through innovation and sustainable energy. With these initiatives, IIT Dhanbad students will be at the forefront of India’s green revolution while gaining valuable industry experience.

Adani’s new ad film turns airports into caring companions

The Adani Group has released a heartfelt new film that brings to life the idea that airports are more than terminals, in fact they are companions in every traveler’s journey. Part of the group’s #HumKarkeDikhateHain campaign, the ad tells the story of an elderly couple taking their first international trip.

Excited yet nervous, the couple relies on a handwritten note from their son to navigate the airport. When the note is misplaced, their anxiety grows. That’s when an attentive Adani Airport staff member steps in, offering assistance with mobility, guiding them through shopping and lounges, and personally escorting them to their boarding gate. The story captures small acts of care that make travel smoother and more comforting, emphasizing empathy alongside efficiency.

Gautam Adani shared the campaign’s message on X (formerly Twitter):

“We promise to open new skies, carry your dreams across horizons, and hold your hand while you soar.”

The ad was directed by acclaimed filmmaker Shoojit Sircar and conceptualized by Ogilvy India, reflecting Adani’s vision of human-centric service. It reinforces the idea that Adani Airports are not just about world-class infrastructure, but also about creating experiences where travelers feel supported and valued. The campaign tagline sums up this philosophy perfectly:

“We don’t just run world-class airports… we become companions on your journey. Adani. Hum Karke Dikhate Hain.”

The launch of this film comes ahead of the much-anticipated opening of Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) on December 25. The airport is being developed under a public-private partnership, with Adani Airports holding a 74% stake and CIDCO the remaining 26%.

With this campaign, the Adani Group aims to humanize air travel, showing that even in a busy, bustling airport, travelers can expect empathy, attention, and genuine care. It’s a strategic effort to strengthen the brand’s image while connecting emotionally with passengers, highlighting that every journey, whether first or hundredth, can be supported and memorable.
