Wadhwani AI

The Wadhwani Institute for Artificial Intelligence (Wadhwani AI) is an independent nonprofit institute founded by the Indian-American tech entrepreneurs Romesh and Sunil Wadhwani. We aim to harness the power of AI to find the break points that cause the world's deepest problems — and then find innovative solutions to fix them. We specialize in AI research to address problems in public health, agriculture, education and infrastructure using tools such as Machine Learning, Data Science, Cognitive Reasoning and IoT. We are a global AI hub with ongoing collaborations with leading academic organisations, global nonprofits, think tanks and other private foundations who are interested in leveraging AI as a force for social good. We partner with government agencies, and non-governmental organizations to help identify needs and to implement and scale the solutions. Our core aims include: - Conduct ground-breaking applied AI research - Pilot solutions on-ground in collaboration with the affected communities - Deploy solutions at scale in collaboration with the social sector and civic authorities.
