Microsoft to invest $17.5B in India by 2029 as AI race accelerates

Microsoft will invest $17.5 billion in India by 2029 to expand its AI and cloud infrastructure. This is Microsoft’s biggest investment in Asia and builds on the $3 billion it committed earlier this year. The plan includes new data centres, a major new region in Hyderabad, upgraded AI infrastructure, and large-scale skilling programs.

The move reflects India’s growing importance as a global AI and cloud hub, fuelled by its massive internet population, developer community, and government push for digital transformation. Microsoft will also integrate AI into two government platforms, e-Shram and the National Career Service, offering multilingual access, AI job matching, and predictive analytics for more than 310 million informal workers.

The company is rolling out sovereign cloud options to help Indian enterprises meet regulatory and data-residency requirements while still accessing high-performance AI systems. Through its skilling program, Microsoft aims to train 20 million Indians in basic AI skills by 2030. READ MORE

Here are 5 reasons why it matters:

  • India becomes a global AI power centre: This scale of investment cements India as one of the world’s most important regions for AI development, infrastructure, and talent. Big tech isn’t just testing the market. They’re betting heavily on India becoming a global AI hub.

  • Massive infrastructure growth: New data centres and sovereign cloud offerings mean more local compute, lower latency, and more secure AI workloads. This drastically improves what Indian businesses, startups, and government agencies can build and deploy.

  • Direct impact on 300+ million workers: Integrating AI into India’s employment platforms brings advanced tools like job matching, rĆ©sumĆ© generation, and skill forecasting to millions of informal workers who previously had limited access to tech-driven services.

  • Pressure on Google, Amazon, and OpenAI: This move escalates the AI arms race. If Microsoft strengthens its position in India’s cloud and AI market, competitors will have to respond with more investment, partnerships, and infrastructure.

  • Talent pipeline explosion: Training 20 million people in AI skills by 2030 reshapes the future workforce. India could become the largest pool of AI-literate workers in the world, which will accelerate innovation and lower global AI development costs.

Google’s first AI glasses expected next year

Google confirmed it will release its first AI glasses in 2026. The move builds on partnerships announced at Google I/O with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker to develop consumer wearables on Android XR, the same platform behind Samsung’s Galaxy XR headset.

The company is developing two types of glasses. One offers screen-free AI assistance using speakers, microphones and cameras so users can speak to Gemini or take photos. The other includes an in-lens display that only the wearer can see, suitable for features like navigation or real-time captioning.

Google also previewed Xreal’s wired XR glasses, Project Aura, which sit between a traditional headset and standard glasses. This model can act as an extended workspace or entertainment device, running Google apps or streaming video like a compact headset. READ MORE

ā€œAn enormous L-shaped glasses-free 3D LED screen positioned at a busy city intersection in a style similar to Shinjuku in Tokyo or Taikoo Li in Chengdu. The screen showcases a glasses-free 3D animation featuring the man from the uploaded reference photo, keeping his face, hair, and natural features perfectly accurate. In the animation, a giant hyper-real version of him leans forward playfully from inside the screen. His upper body pushes past the frame as if entering real space, with his hand reaching out toward pedestrians below. His expression is curious and friendly, matching the reference photo. The depth is strong enough that he appears to float out into mid-air. Under bright daytime lighting, his form casts soft, realistic shadows across the LED surface and nearby buildings. The whole scene blends seamlessly with the urban setting, filled with crisp detail, vibrant colour, and a lively street atmosphere.ā€
