Welcoming Shri Alok Kumar to InMobi Lucknow Technology Centre and Office: Building Global Innovative Products from Uttar Pradesh It was an honour to welcome Shri Alok Kumar (@74_alok), Principal Secretary, Department of Information Technology & Electronics and Planning, Government of Uttar Pradesh, to @InMobi's Lucknow campus. His interaction with our engineering and technology teams reflected the shared ambition of government and industry to position Uttar Pradesh as one of India's leading technology and innovation destinations and inspired one and all. Hon'ble Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath Ji's (@myogiadityanath) vision of transforming Uttar Pradesh into a $1 trillion economy, powered by technology, innovation, digital infrastructure and skilled talent, is creating the right environment for global technology companies to invest, innovate and scale. As he has consistently emphasised, Uttar Pradesh should become a hub for AI, electronics, semiconductors, data centres, startups and next-generation digital technologies. Shri Alok Kumar's leadership in translating this vision into action through progressive IT policies, ecosystem development and industry engagement deserves special appreciation. His message to our team was clear: technology is central to Uttar Pradesh's growth story, and companies like InMobi have an important role to play in building that future. This aligns closely with our Founder and CEO Naveen Tewari's (@NaveenTewari) vision of making Lucknow a second hub for world class engineering and AI innovation, while creating opportunities for exceptional local talent to build products for the world from our city. As Mohit Saxena (@mohitsax), Co-founder & CTO, InMobi, has often emphasized, that talent is not confined by geography and is determined instead by mindset, ambition and opportunity adding that after two decades of building engineering teams in Bengaluru and San Francisco, the addition of Lucknow marks the beginning of a long-term effort to develop a deep-technology ecosystem beyond the traditional metropolitan centres and to reshape the innovation map of Bharat. Mohit, hailing from Lucknow himself, remains deeply passionate about the Lucknow expansion. With three Co Founders from UP InMobi became the first ever Deeptech company last year to establish their office in Lucknow and has made wide and deep efforts to hire local talent, run campus integration programs and aims to create a robust upskilling program with a comprehensive campus faculty exchange program and live project integration pipeline as well. Our sincere thanks to Hon'ble Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath Ji for his visionary leadership, Shri Alok Kumar for his encouragement and support, and to Naveen Tewari and Mohit Saxena for championing a bold vision that places Lucknow at the heart of InMobi's global technology journey. A huge thanks to all the team members from the Lucknow office and across geographies who made this dialogue so successful and heartfelt! As India's first unicorn, InMobi is proud to contribute to Uttar Pradesh's technology ecosystem by building cutting edge capabilities in Generative AI, AI Commerce, #Adtech, MLOps, AI infrastructure and automation from Lucknow.
