In a strategic move to strengthen India’s artificial intelligence talent pipeline, NVIDIA has selected CloudThat as its first authorized education services partner in the country, marking a significant development in the nation’s rapidly expanding AI training ecosystem.
The Bengaluru-based technology training and consulting firm becomes the first Indian edtech company officially authorized to deliver NVIDIA’s education programs centered on AI and accelerated computing. This partnership arrives as India intensifies efforts to establish itself as a global AI powerhouse through increased investments in infrastructure and workforce development.
Through this collaboration, CloudThat will provide NVIDIA’s specialized training courses to corporate enterprises, universities, and individual professionals. The curriculum focuses on practical skills needed to develop, optimize, and deploy AI systems across various applications, including computer vision, language processing, generative AI, and large-scale production environments.
Courses will be delivered by CloudThat’s instructor team, which includes India’s first two NVIDIA-certified trainers. Participants will gain access to NVIDIA’s comprehensive AI ecosystem, featuring GPU-accelerated laboratory environments, specially designed development platforms, ready-to-use models, and specialized workflow tools.
The announcement follows NVIDIA’s 2024 India tour, during which company executives visited CloudThat’s Bengaluru facility. Speaking in Mumbai during that visit, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang emphasized India’s potential, stating the country should focus on creating AI systems using its own data rather than exporting information and importing intelligence.
Bhavesh Goswami, founder and CEO of CloudThat, highlighted that India’s AI aspirations depend equally on infrastructure and skilled professionals. He noted that with substantial investments being made in GPU infrastructure, developing qualified talent to harness that capacity represents the crucial next step. The partnership aims to equip the next generation of AI professionals across multiple industries.
The initiative is positioned to meet rising demand for AI expertise in sectors including information technology services, banking and finance, manufacturing, retail, and government operations. It will also create career opportunities in fields such as AI engineering, data science, MLOps, robotics, and AI infrastructure management.
This partnership reflects broader efforts to address India’s AI skills gap as the technology becomes increasingly central to economic competitiveness and digital transformation across industries.
