At the Advantage Assam 2.0 Investment Summit 2025, Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Industries, announced a groundbreaking commitment to invest over Rs 50,000 crore in Assam over the next five years.

This investment will primarily focus on the advancement of technology and digital infrastructure, marking a significant step in driving the state’s development.

The initiative aims to elevate Assam’s technological landscape, positioning it as a key player in the digital economy of India.

Jio’s Role In Assam’s Digital Transformation

Ambani emphasized the central role Jio has played in Assam’s telecom modernization.

PM Modi’s Impact On Assam’s Development

Ambani lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi for bringing four major advantages to Assam’s development.

  • First, PM Modi has repositioned Assam from being a peripheral region to becoming a central part of India’s development map.
  • Second, the “Act East” policy, with its emphasis on rapid development, has made Assam a key link between India and Southeast Asia.
  • Third, Ambani highlighted the connectivity revolution, both digital and physical, that has dramatically improved the state’s accessibility.

Lastly, he praised the PM’s emphasis on technology as a key driver of growth, helping Assam tap into its immense potential.

Future Prospects For Assam’s Economic Growth

With Reliance’s substantial investment, Assam is poised for significant growth in sectors such as digital infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and overall economic development.

Ambani’s commitment signals a bright future for the state, enhancing its position as a crucial economic and technological hub.

Support for Assam’s Growing Digital Infrastructure

Reliance’s substantial investment in Assam will help the state tap into global opportunities in the digital and AI sectors.

Ambani expressed confidence that Assam, known for its global tea brand, will soon be recognized as a “technological paradise.”
