India is on the verge of an AI revolution fueled by a tech-savvy population, government support, and global tech interest. To capitalize on this, HackIndia and SingularityNET are partnering to empower 25,000 students across 150 Indian universities with advanced AI and Web3 skills, resources, and mentorship.
CSharp, HackIndia’s parent company, and SingularityNET’s partnership reflects their joint commitment to democratizing Web3 and AI education for Indian students. Equipping future tech leaders is vital for India to achieve its AI innovation goals. Ivan Kan, CSharp CMO, said, “Hackathons have rapidly emerged as the most powerful catalysts for career creation and development, providing a real-world experience where innovation outpaces traditional academia. As we scale HackIndia 2025, we’re proud to amplify this shift, equipping the next generation with the tools, mentorship, and opportunities to lead with Web3 and AI.”
SingularityNET
SingularityNET, founded by Dr. Ben Goertzel, is a decentralized AI platform democratizing AI access. Its marketplace enables the sharing and monetization of AI services via the AGIX token. Beyond the marketplace, SingularityNET is dedicated to advancing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) through initiatives and technologies that foster AI collaboration. Dr. Ben Goertzel, Founder and CEO of SingularityNET, commented, “We’re honored to be the Title Sponsor for HackIndia 2025. This partnership underscores our commitment to fostering decentralized AI innovation. We look forward to collaborating with India’s brightest minds to drive advancements in AI and blockchain technologies.”
India, A Global AI Leader
India’s burgeoning tech market and vast talent pool are establishing it as a major player in the global AI landscape. Recognizing this potential, global leaders like NVIDIA are actively supporting India’s ambition to become a self-sufficient AI powerhouse. Prime Minister Modi’s government is further fueling this growth through policies that enhance AI infrastructure accessibility and affordability. This proactive approach is already showing results, with the Bosch Tech Compass Survey 2025 highlighting India’s leading position in AI readiness, as over 50% of Indians actively pursue AI self-education.
