Visakhapatnam: The two-day Fusion AI Summit 2025, organised by the DeepTech Naipunya Foundation, commenced in Visakhapatnam on Friday. The event brought together policymakers, global tech leaders, and industry pioneers to accelerate India's AI transformation from vision to execution.
According to the organisers, this is the first-of-its-kind exclusive AI summit in Vizag, hosting over 1,000 participants.
The event was inaugurated by state minister Kondapalli Srinivas, who spoke about AP's commitment to becoming an AI-first economy. "Numerous use cases demonstrate how human-AI collaboration will shape a futuristic Andhra Pradesh, enhancing both productivity and quality of life," said Srinivas.
NVIDIA's managing director for South Asia, Vishal Dhupar, delivered the keynote address on "realising India's AI potential," highlighting NVIDIA's investments in Andhra Pradesh's AI ecosystem. "From AI vision to execution, India and Vizag must focus on three key principles: the 1-2-3 laws of AI adoption, lessons from AI's historical evolution, and establishing AI factories. Vizag is uniquely positioned to lead this transformation," said Dhupar.

Other dignitaries included Ravi Vemuru (president, APNRT Society), Dr Suresh Batha (additional director, STPI), and Sreedhar Kosaraju (chairman, APDTI Network). "Hyper-personalisation through AI isn't just a global trend — it's Andhra Pradesh's opportunity to elevate its workforce and industries. Change is not to be feared but embraced as a catalyst for societal progress," said Ravi Vemuru. "With hundreds of startups incubated and 75% efficiency gains in public services, Andhra Pradesh is bridging the innovation gap between government and entrepreneurs through targeted initiatives like Kalpataru CoE," said Suresh Batha.
Sreedhar Kosaraju said state's vibrant talent pool and thriving innovation ecosystem make it the perfect launchpad for India's AI revolution. This summit is where visionaries unite to turn Vizag into the East Coast's hub of AI-driven transformation. The summit was attended by over 1,100 delegates, including CXOs, business leaders, startups, research scholars, and students.
