Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 2 (ANI): Gokul V Subramaniam, President of Intel India and Vice President of the Client Computing Group, showcased Intel’s expanding role in India’s content and innovation ecosystem during the Waves Summit 2025 in Mumbai.
Speaking to ANI, Subramaniam emphasized Intel’s commitment to powering India’s growing media, gaming, and educational sectors through cutting-edge AI and processing technologies.
“Waves is an amazing opportunity, especially for content creators working in audio and video. At the core of all this is data — and data is what Intel is all about,” he said.
“We are working across multiple aspects of computing — from data centers to AI-enabled personal devices — to enable content creation at every level, from large media conglomerates to individual YouTubers.”
Subramaniam explained how Intel’s advanced processors and AI accelerators are helping streamline content workflows.
“For the big players, our data center CPUs and AI accelerators are making content creation faster and more AI-driven. And for individual influencers, our AI PCs enable quick video editing and high-quality content generation.”
He also highlighted the transformation of India’s gaming landscape.
“India has a significant population of gamers. Many have moved from mobile gaming to high-performance, network-based games on laptops. With Intel’s innovations in performance, audio-video capabilities, and affordability, we see huge potential in this space.”
One of the most exciting developments Subramaniam revealed was Intel’s collaboration with Tejas Networks and Sankhya Labs to bring TV tuner capabilities directly into laptops.
“We’ve integrated broadcast TV tuner and demodulator technology into laptops, in partnership with Tejas and Sankhya Labs. The antenna is built inside the device, allowing users to receive broadcast content without needing internet access. This has massive potential for educational content delivery — students can access lessons without paying for data or facing online distractions. With our AI PCs, this content can also be transcribed and translated in real-time.”
Subramaniam emphasized that Intel’s broader vision is to bring AI everywhere — from the cloud and network to the edge and personal devices.
“India is not just a massive consumer base — it’s a creative powerhouse. With the right tools and innovation, we believe the country can lead in content creation, gaming, and digital learning.”
