In the Platinum Jubilee Year of IIT Kharagpur, we proudly celebrate a defining moment as our distinguished alumnus, Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, addressed the India AI Impact Summit 2026. Opening his remarks with a personal reflection, he shared, “Every time I visit, I’m struck by the pace of change, and today is no different. Back when I was a student, I often took the Coromandel Express from Chennai up to IIT Kharagpur. To get there, we passed through Visakhapatnam.” From his humble journey as a student to unveiling a transformative vision for India’s technological future, this trajectory stands as a powerful testament to purpose, perseverance, and global leadership. At the summit, Sundar Pichai announced Google’s plan to establish a full-stack AI hub in Visakhapatnam as part of a $15 billion infrastructure investment in India—further positioning the nation at the forefront of the global AI movement. He underscored that AI will undeniably reshape the workforce, automating certain roles, evolving others, and creating entirely new careers. He also highlighted breakthroughs such as AlphaFold by Google DeepMind, which compressed decades of protein-structure research into a publicly available database now used by millions of researchers worldwide, demonstrating how AI can accelerate scientific discovery at an unprecedented scale. As an institution that rose from the historic Hijli Detention Camp to become India’s first IIT, IIT Kharagpur embodies resilience, vision, and nation-building. In this landmark 75th year, we take immense pride in seeing our alumni shaping global technology, driving innovation, and contributing to India’s leadership in the AI era.
