About this episode

The episode discusses the operationalization of AI in large enterprises, focusing on infrastructure, data governance, and digital sovereignty.

“AI has to run where your applications are running and where your data resides." In this episode of Mint Techcetra, Nelson John speaks with Ravi Jain, Vice President, Systems and Cloud Sales, IBM India & South Asia, about what it takes to operationalise AI across large enterprises.The conversation looks at how hybrid cloud environments, data accessibility and governance frameworks are influencing AI deployment strategies. It also explores the growing importance of digital sovereignty and infrastructure portability, particularly as organisations look to deploy AI across complex regulatory and business environments. As AI becomes more deeply integrated into enterprise operations, the discussion highlights that long-term success depends on the right architecture, access to trusted data, and the ability to embed AI into core business processes as much as it depends on the technology itself.
