India’s Mint All About AI Tech4Good Summit 2025, sponsored by Salesforce, gathered industry leaders, innovators and officials in Mumbai to showcase AI’s role in public good. The event saw nearly 300 nominations—almost three times last year—spanning disability inclusion, sustainability, health, education, agriculture and financial access across India, Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines. Awards recognized AI solutions that delivered tangible outcomes, such as a waste‑management system diverting 12,000 tons, a multilingual loan‑approval platform cutting processing time to 48 hours, and an eye‑screening tool reducing costs by 80 %. Speakers highlighted the need for ethical AI, sovereign model development, and scaling responsible technology for inclusive growth.
