Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Technology Hub (MATH)

March 12, 2024

In a groundbreaking initiative, the Department of Science & Technology has joined forces with the Telangana government-led T-Hub to establish a unique Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Technology Hub (MATH). This collaboration aims to foster AI innovation, create job opportunities, and provide a conducive ecosystem for AI startups in India.

State-of-the-Art Facilities

T-Hub has dedicated an entire floor to MATH, which will be equipped with cutting-edge facilities to support AI and ML development. These include:

A mini data center with GPU capabilities
A world-class learning management system (LMS) tailored for AI education
Robust data infrastructure to support diverse AI applications

These facilities will provide startups, researchers, and students with the necessary tools and resources to drive AI and ML innovation.

Nurturing AI Startups and Creating Jobs

MATH is positioning itself as the go-to destination for AI-driven initiatives across the country. The center of excellence (CoE) has set ambitious targets to nurture over 150 startups per annum and generate more than 500 AI-related jobs by 2025. By providing access to state-of-the-art compute infrastructure, AI skilling programs, data lakes, virtual connectivity to global AI ecosystems, and opportunities for patent conversion, MATH aims to become the ultimate destination for all things AI and ML.

India’s Growing AI Market

The launch of MATH comes at a crucial time, as India’s AI market is experiencing significant growth. Estimates suggest that the market is growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25-35% and is expected to reach $17 billion by 2027. The establishment of MATH will further fuel this growth by providing a platform for startups and researchers to innovate and develop cutting-edge AI and ML solutions.

Empowering Entrepreneurs and Driving Change

T-Hub CEO Mahankali Srinivas Rao emphasized the importance of the collaboration between T-Hub and MATH in empowering entrepreneurs to harness the power of AI and ML. By providing the necessary support and resources, the initiative aims to drive meaningful change and propel India onto the global stage of technological leadership.

MATH CEO Rahul Paith highlighted the significance of the inauguration of MATH, stating that it marks a milestone in the journey towards harnessing the potential of AI and ML to drive innovation and create impact. With its state-of-the-art facilities and comprehensive support ecosystem, MATH is poised to become the epicenter of AI and ML innovation in India.

The establishment of the Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Technology Hub (MATH) through the collaboration between the Department of Science & Technology and the Telangana government-led T-Hub is a significant step towards fostering AI innovation and creating job opportunities in India.
