New Delhi/IBNS-CMEDIA: Amazon CEO Andy Jassy on Thursday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his India visit with a plan for fresh investment.
The meeting covered Amazon’s long-term role in India and its progress on pledges that directly support the PM’s vision of building an Atmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat.
At the meeting, Jassy informed PM Modi of Amazon’s plans to invest $48 billion in India from 2026 to 2030, taking the company’s total commitment in the country since 2010 to $88 billion.
The announcement makes Amazon one of the largest global AI and cloud infrastructure investors in India, in addition to being the country’s largest foreign investor and largest enabler of ecommerce exports.
Jassy shared examples of innovations built for India that Amazon is taking to other countries — including Amazon Now, which started as an experiment in India and is being replicated in markets around the world.
Really enjoyed my meeting with Prime Minister @narendramodi about what’s ahead for Amazon in India.
We’ve been serving customers, sellers, developers, startups, and enterprises in India for more than a decade and just getting started.
