"},{"text":"The white paper, launched at the ‘India AI Impact Summit 2026’ here, marks a strategic effort to shift the national AI narrative from a narrow focus on automation and displacement to one centred on productivity expansion, institutional strengthening, and equitable participation in the digital economy."},{"text":"The white paper underscores a central thesis: the next phase of growth will not be defined by access to AI, but by disciplined execution and large-scale institutional adoption. Based on a series of pre-summit multi-sectoral consultations with policymakers and key stakeholders, it delivers a blueprint to power the next phase of jobs, productivity and inclusive growth, positioning India as a model for the Global South."},{"text":"Called “AI for All: Catalysing Jobs, Growth, and Opportunity,” the white paper was launched here by Prosus, a global technology company, in partnership with knowledge partner BCG and MeitY."},{"text":"“India has built strong digital public infrastructure and nurtured one of the world’s largest pools of AI talent.

If deployed responsibly, AI can catalyse net employment while strengthening trust, governance, and long-term productivity,” said Rentala Chandrashekhar, Chief Mentor, AI for All Project, Chairman, Centre for the Digital Future."},{"text":"According to Sehraj Singh, Managing Director, Prosus India, India’s next phase of growth will not be defined by access to AI, but by execution at scale."},{"text":"Vipin V, MD and Partner, BCG, said that the defining challenge of the next phase is institutionalisation and AI must be treated as a strategic capability explicitly linked to
