India strengthens AI & telecom partnership with UK, seeks support at ITU
India and the United Kingdom are deepening their cooperation in artificial intelligence and telecoms, with New Delhi pushing to align this partnership with its broader goals at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). On the sidelines of the AI Summit, India’s IT and telecom leadership framed AI as core to the next generation of networks, arguing that India’s scale and the UK’s research base together can influence how global standards evolve.
The two sides discussed collaboration around AI-native networks, Open RAN, and 6G, with an emphasis on setting rules that balance innovation with security and trust. India is seeking UK backing within the ITU as it tries to shape the governance and technical frameworks that will underpin these emerging telecom technologies.
