Reliance AGM Meeting 2025: At the 48th Reliance Annual General Meeting, Chairman Mukesh Ambani announced a new India-focused AI joint venture with Meta, aimed at combining open-source AI models with Reliance’s deep domain knowledge across industries including Energy, Retail, Telecom, Media, and Manufacturing.
Ambani invited Mark Zuckerberg, Founder and CEO of Meta, to share his perspective on the collaboration. Zuckerberg said it was an “exciting moment in time,” highlighting that AI systems are beginning to improve themselves and that superintelligence could greatly enhance existing systems while enabling innovations beyond imagination.
Zuckerberg said that they wanted to deliver personal superintelligence to everyone. “We believe that this technology has the potential to bring a new era of personal empowerment to people, so that they have greater agency to improve the world in all of the directions that they choose,” Zuckerberg added.
Excited on the partnership with Reliance, Zuckerberg called it “a key step forward towards ensuring that everyone has access to AI, and eventually, superintelligence.”
“Meta and Reliance are going to deliver our open-source AI models to Indian businesses to help them fuel their work,” he added.
Speaking on Meta’s Llama, Zuckerberg said that they had seen how AI could amplify human potential, boosting productivity, inspiring creativity, and accelerating innovation.
“Llama’s open-source foundation means that whether it is deployed in a cloud, on premises, or through dedicated infrastructure, this technology can be tailored to fit the unique needs of every business: from small start-ups in remote towns to large enterprises in the biggest cities,” he added.
With this partnership, Zuckerberg said they are beginning to build their vision for the future where every entrepreneur, creator, and
company has the tools they need to succeed. I believe that this venture will become a model for how AI – and one day superintelligence – can be delivered to everyone. This is just the beginning.
