InMobi

Excited to announce @hemanamburi as our new Group CFO! Over her 14 years at InMobi, Hema has played a key role in strengthening our financial processes and governance across geographies. Congrats, Hema! @NaveenTewari I @abhaysinghal I @mohitsax I @piyushshah I Shefali Rai

Grateful for the opportunity to share our engineering journey at @Google Cloud Networking Summit 2026! Our engineers Nagesh Kumar Sahu and Thowfeequr Rahman Thaha shared how InMobi tackles networking challenges at scale.

Introducing iLead Milestone 2026. Now in its 9th edition, our flagship program brings together 22 first-time leaders to learn and grow. Because how we lead others begins with how we lead ourselves.

"Agents are microservices with a brain." G S Vamsi Krishna of Confluent at #InMobiEncore26. We spent a decade scaling services that obey. Now we must scale services that think and hallucinate. The playbook is being rewritten live.

"There was no policy, no funding, no talent in the private sector. The odds were negative. That's when I took the leap." Pawan Kumar Chandana of Skyroot at #InMobiEncore26. Last month they launched India's first private rocket into the orbit.

"70% of organizations have already burst their planned AI budgets." Debasis Bhattacharya of Databricks at #InMobiEncore26 on why tokenmaxing is real: costs are scattered, and midnight jobs quietly eat half the tokens. Measure value, not volume.

At #InMobiEncore26, Manu Chopra of Karya put it simply: "AI's promise was never just intelligence. It was impact." And he's keeping that promise. 2 lakh people, most previously unemployed, now earn 20x minimum wage building the data AI learns from.

"Writing code is easier. Understanding what code to deploy, whether someone can sign off, is the real hiring question." - Dr. Aalok Thakkar of Ashoka University at #InMobiEncore26. AI ended the war for code. The war for judgment has just begun.

"Even trivial things, at scale, become non-trivial." - Dr. Maxim Sviridenko at #InMobiEncore26. A yes/no decision costs nothing. Make it 100 trillion times a day, and it becomes one of the internet's hardest engineering problems.

"Space is going from an endeavor to an economy."- Shreyaans Jain of QOSMIC at #InMobiEncore26. His proof: 2 days ago his team beamed 10 Gbps across 30km of Bangalore. The infrastructure era has begun.

"Hazaar baar crash karo, ek baar uda do. Bas." Shreepoorna Rao of Arctus Aerospace at #InMobiEncore26, on watching 200kg aircraft crash after months of work. That's the builder's math: fail a thousand times, fly once, and the sky is yours.

"You have to prove to people it can exist before it exists. And hold that conviction when your co-founders, your team, your parents, your investors start to waver." Stanford-returned Brahmini Priya of GMach at #InMobiEncore26 on the real job of a deep-tech founder.

“India’s entire compute is a fraction of what Google has. We will never win on compute. We have to win on intelligence and understanding”- Dr. Manindra Agrawal at #InMobiEncore26. His bet is simple: crack why LLMs actually work, then match them at a fraction of the cost.

Your AI bill isn't decided in the cost war room. It was decided months earlier, the day someone picked the model. Glance at #InMobiEncore26: "If you've already chosen a large model, there is only so much you can optimize."

Engineers know how to build, but not what. Domain experts know what, but not how. That gap has haunted tech for decades and it just closed - Dr. Shailesh Kumar at #InMobiEncore26. A farming expert who can prompt an LLM is now a builder.

The complaint about "kids these days" is centuries old. Will they even study now that they have AI? Dr. Suryaprasad's take at #InMobiEncore26: give them the right platform and channel that energy, and they'll be the ones leading tomorrow.

If AI ends up doing everything, what’s left for us? Jay Jenkins closes his #InMobiEncore26 talk with the answer: “Only humans have purpose. We bring the intent. AI just delivers on it.”

"If people in your team meetings don't think you're delusional, you're not doing a great job. Being delusional, for the first time, is being realistic" - Naveen Tewari at #InMobiEncore26

“If you can solve for 1.4 billion people, you can solve for everybody else” - Mohit Saxena at #InMobiEncore26. Every language, every income level, every edge case is right here. Whatever survives India is already stress-tested and ready for the world.

#Encore2026 is live in Bengaluru. 700+ engineers, researchers, and founders in one room, asking one question: how does AI actually make it to production at scale? To everyone joining us, welcome. We built this for you.
