The India AI Impact Summit 2026 just wrapped up in New Delhi — and the numbers are staggering. $250 billion in investment commitments.
Google pledging $15 billion. Microsoft putting in $50 billion. Reliance committing ₹10 lakh crore. NVIDIA partnering with Indian firms to deploy 20,000+ Blackwell Ultra GPUs. Tata Group joining hands with OpenAI for India's first large-scale AI data centre.
But here's the real question nobody at the summit could answer: Who will actually build all of this?
Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself acknowledged the parallel with the internet era — that AI will create jobs no one can predict today. But Chief Economic Advisor V. Anantha Nageswaran delivered a sobering reality check: India's young workforce faces a structural skills gap that threatens to turn its demographic dividend into a missed opportunity.
The talent crisis is real — and the numbers are alarming.
India needs 25,000 AI Agent Developers right now. Only 3,000 are available — an 88% gap. For AI Agent Architects, the shortfall is even worse at 92%. Over 60% of Global Capability Centres set up in the last two years are AI-focused, and 80% of upcoming GCCs will be AI-led.
Meanwhile, Infosys has partnered with Anthropic. TCS is working with OpenAI. HCLTech has tied up with OpenAI. Reliance was actively recruiting AI engineers at the summit itself. The enterprise AI agents market, currently at $7.8 billion, is racing toward $52 billion by 2030.
The platforms are ready. The money is here. The talent isn't.
ServiceNow reports that 40% of its enterprise customers have activated AI agent capabilities across IT (ITSM, ITOM, ITAM), Customer Service (CRM), Employee Services, Governance (GRC), and Security operations.
Salesforce’s Agentforce platform, launched in 2024, now serves over 18,500 enterprise customers, with annual recurring revenue exceeding $540 million.
This is exactly the challenge that Hyderabad-based Digital Edify has been preparing for since 2016.
With 100,000+ professionals trained, 1,000+ industry relationships, and India's first AI-Native Training Institute positioning, Digital Edify has rebuilt its entire educational model around the Agentic AI era.
Unlike institutes that bolt on an AI module as an afterthought, Digital Edify has integrated Agentic AI into every single program — from Full AI Stack with Agents, ServiceNow & AI Agents to Salesforce & Agentforce to the dedicated AI Engineer (Agentic AI) program.
The institute has also launched an Agentic Center of Excellence (ACoE) — a four-pillar ecosystem that trains agent developers, builds production-ready AI agents, provides enterprise implementation services, and connects India's largest community of AI agent professionals through meetups, hackathons, and an annual summit.
"The India AI Impact Summit has confirmed what we've been building toward. The investments are flowing in — $250 billion worth. The platforms are ready. The only missing piece is talent. And that's exactly what Digital Edify is producing at scale."
