New Delhi [India], July 1: The World Economic Forum predicts that AI will generate nearly 97 million jobs by 2025 and contribute an astonishing USD 15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030. According to the Wall Street Journal, there is a global shortage of AI talent and companies are paying million dollar packages and much higher salaries than IT engineers to AI-skilled professionals.
To bridge the gap and nurture top AI talent in the world, Saras AI Institute is set to launch an AI-exclusive, fully-online higher education institute. With its launch in India, Saras is offering a unique opportunity for Indian students to gain the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the rapidly growing field of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
“We are thrilled to bring Saras AI Institute to India, a nation brimming with talented individuals who are passionate about making a difference,” says Anil Singh, Founder and President of Saras AI Institute. “As a student-centric institute, we aim to help students secure well paying AI jobs and become compassionate and responsible leaders of tomorrow.”
A US-based, state-approved degree granting institution, Saras is offering degree programs for students worldwide starting this year. This marks a significant milestone as Saras becomes the world’s first AI-exclusive, higher education institute.
Notably, Saras has already established its presence in more than 25 prestigious engineering institutes across India, including IITs, NITs, BITS, and others, through its student-led ‘Saras AI Club’ initiative. These AI communities host expert sessions, workshops, and hackathons focused on AI, empowering students to learn by building real-world projects. Additionally, club members enjoy exclusive access to workshops on well-being and soft skills development.
Founded by Anil Singh, a seasoned leader with over 25 years of experience, Saras AI Institute draws on Singh’s vast expertise in organizational leadership. Anil Singh previously founded and led Hanu, a Microsoft Cloud Services company, for 15 years before its successful acquisition by Insight. With degrees from NYU and IIT, Singh brings a deep understanding of both technology and education to this new venture.
Saras aims to nurture the top 1 per cent AI leaders in the world with its unique approach:
