The Indian School of Business (ISB) has launched the AI Factory, a platform under its AI Venture Initiative (Aivi), to help innovators, startups and researchers translate artificial intelligence (AI) research into deployable, market-ready solutions.
The launch, at ISB’s Hyderabad campus on October 25, brought together more than 650 entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers and corporate leaders to discuss how India can leverage AI for both societal and industrial transformation.
The AI Factory integrates six key components — AI labs and testbeds, a discovery marketplace, go-to-market and scale support, infrastructure access, responsible AI frameworks and research-to-venture translation — to help early-stage ideas evolve into practical applications.
Bhagwan Chowdhry, faculty director at ISB I-Venture, said the AI Factory aims for a “convergence of talent, research and industry to turn cutting-edge breakthroughs into solutions that create tangible impact across India’s AI ecosystem”.
The initiative is already working with AI startups focused on challenges such as predicting Alzheimer’s disease through biological modelling, developing enterprise AI agents, building agricultural robotics and creating vernacular AI tools to enhance inclusivity.
The platform draws on ISB’s cross-disciplinary faculty expertise across healthcare, business operations and behavioural systems.
