**Mumbai, March 1, 2025** – Reliance Jio Infocomm Chairman Akash Ambani, speaking at Mumbai Tech Week, emphasized the importance of work-life balance, drawing inspiration from his parents’ dedication to both family and career. He highlighted that for him, family and work are equally important priorities, a balance he learned from his parents’ example. Ambani stressed that individuals should define their own priorities, acknowledging they may shift over time, but these priorities ultimately give life meaning. He cited his parents as role models, emphasizing their unwavering commitment to their work and family.
Ambani also addressed the ongoing debate in India’s business community regarding working hours. He stated that he focuses on the quality of work, rather than the number of hours spent, aiming to maximize the positive impact on the nation, society, and Reliance Jio.
Looking towards the future, Ambani highlighted the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI). He noted that eight years after Jio’s launch, India has become a global leader in data consumption and is now not only rapidly adopting technology but also leveraging it to improve lives. Ambani believes AI is poised to be a major growth engine for India, potentially boosting the economy by 10%. To capitalize on this, Reliance Jio has assembled a team of over 1,000 data scientists, researchers, and engineers to guide its AI initiatives. The company is also constructing a gigawatt-capacity data center in Jamnagar and exploring the provision of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to further benefit the broader ecosystem.
