Reliance Industries Limited director Akash Ambani has promised to turn Gujarat's Jamnagar into a global leader in Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure over the next two years.
He was speaking at an event marking the 25th anniversary of Reliance’s first refinery in Jamnagar.
In an address to employees and their families, Akash Ambani announced plans for the development of AI infrastructure in Jamnagar which will make the refinery a global leader in the field.
“We have already commenced building AI infrastructure in Jamnagar, and we want to complete it in true Jamnagar style ... in record time — 24 months. This will make Jamnagar not only a leader in AI infrastructure but also place it among the top-ranked in the world,” Akash Ambani said in the presence of his siblings Isha Ambani-Piramal and Anant Ambani.
Akash Ambani pledged to continue Reliance's growth and further solidify Jamnagar’s role as a jewel of the RIL family.
Isha Ambani-Piramal, Director at RIL, spoke fondly of the refinery's legacy.
Reflecting on her grandfather Dhirubhai Ambani's vision, she said: “Today, as we celebrate 25 years of Jamnagar, I feel my grandfather's presence and miss him dearly. This was his cherished dream, a vision that lived in his heart. He would have been so proud to see what Jamnagar has become today.”
Isha Ambani further praised the leadership of her father, Mukesh Ambani, acknowledging his unwavering dedication to turning his father’s dream into a reality.
“This is my father, Shri Mukesh Bhai Ambani, a man of vision, a man of resilience, and a man of determination. For him, there is no greater duty than Reliance,” she added.
The Jamnagar refinery, Reliance’s first refinery, has played a pivotal role in the company’s growth over the past 25 years.
The refinery, the conglomerate’s first, recently marked its 25th anniversary.
Launched on December 28, 1999, the refinery has since evolved into one of the most advanced in the world.
It is home to some of the largest facilities globally, including the Fluidised Catalytic Cracker (FCC), Coker, Alkylation, Paraxylene, Polypropylene, Refinery Off-Gas Cracker (ROGC), and Petcoke gasification plants.
