It was an incredible week hosting our Co-founder and Group CEO, Srikanth Velamakanni, and our Chief Practice Officer for APAC & ME, Sandeep Dutta, right here in Australia.
A major highlight of their visit was hosting an executive dinner at the iconic Sydney Opera House. Beyond the dinner, it was a fantastic opportunity to meet with senior leaders across banking, financial services, and other key industries throughout the week.
The conversations reinforced the immense momentum and appetite for scaling enterprise AI across the region. A huge thank you to all the executives who joined us, and to Srikanth and Sandeep for bringing Fractal’s global vision to Sydney!

India’s AI Sovereignty Challenge: Winning Without Owning the Whole Stack
The world’s fifth-largest economy has few strengths in the AI ecosystem. It is broadly self-sufficient in energy but imports all advanced AI chips, accounts for only about 3% of global data-center capacity and has yet to produce a globally competitive frontier model.
At first glance, the conclusion appears obvious: India is behind.
That inference deserves more nuance, Srikanth Velamakanni (@srikanth) and Ganesh Ramakrishnan (@ganramkr) argued when they joined me on Bloomberg’s new Emerging podcast.

A few themes stood out strongly from the discussion:
• The world will need more software than ever in the AI era, creating a massive growth opportunity for the technology industry.
• AI is not just about automation. The real opportunity lies in reimagining organisational workflows through a Human + AI model where trust, accuracy, and deep domain expertise become critical.
• The best days of the technology industry are still ahead of us. Indian technology companies are uniquely positioned to innovate and scale in ways very few ecosystems can match globally.
• As technology reshapes economies and industries, Nasscom has an important role to play in shaping global conversations around innovation, talent, and responsible adoption of AI.
• The industry must continue expanding investments in R&D, DeepTech, and engineering capabilities to build long term growth and global leadership.
• Protecting the core while expanding into newer markets will remain equally important as enterprises navigate this transition.
• With products across industries being re-engineered with AI, India has a significant opportunity to strengthen its journey towards becoming a product nation by building a stronger product and innovation ecosystem.
• The next phase of growth will also come from strengthening India’s ER&D ecosystem and leveraging AI across engineering and product development.
• “India for India” is emerging as a powerful opportunity for multinational companies looking to build, innovate, and scale from India for one of the world’s fastest growing digital economies.

India’s GCCs are at the core of this transformation, uniquely equipped to drive organization-wide AI adoption and innovation.
Three essential pillars to harness AI’s potential:
• Process transformation: Rethink every function, supply chains, finance, marketing, and operations, end-to-end.
• Build strong AI foundations: Prioritize data accuracy and context to tackle the complexity of enterprise-level AI solutions.
• Reskill workforces: Enable talent to adopt and lead AI-driven transformations for the future of work.
