Mumbai’s AI Transformation: Government, Industry, and Innovators Join Forces to Shape India’s AI Future at Asia’s Largest Tech Event

Mumbai, January 30, 2025 – Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant future, it’s already transforming economies, businesses, and governance. As nations worldwide race to establish themselves as AI-driven economies, Mumbai is strategically positioning itself as the ‘AI Use Case Capital of Asia’. In an ambitious move, the Government of Maharashtra, in collaboration with the Tech Entrepreneurs Association of Mumbai (TEAM), has announced the second edition of Mumbai Tech Week (MTW) 2025. Scheduled from February 24 to March 1, 2025, this highly anticipated event aims to be Asia’s most influential AI and innovation summit, bringing together policymakers, tech visionaries, and global industry leaders.

Building on the success of its inaugural edition in 2024, which was recognized by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a landmark event for India’s digital transformation, Mumbai Tech Week 2025 will explore AI’s integration across industries, its role in governance, and the future of India’s technological evolution. As Mumbai contributes nearly 4% of India’s total GDP, the city is primed to become the nucleus of AI-led economic expansion.

With over $1.6 billion invested in AI startups in India in 2024 alone and global AI investments projected to exceed $200 billion by 2025, India is at a critical juncture where AI adoption and policy development will dictate the country’s competitive edge in the global digital economy. Mumbai Tech Week 2025 will serve as a platform for industry leaders and decision-makers to craft strategies that align India’s AI growth with global trends, ensuring sustainable innovation and large-scale AI implementation.
