New Delhi, Oct 14 : Adani Enterprises, through its joint venture AdaniConneX, and Google have announced a landmark partnership to develop India’s largest AI data centre campus in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The project, valued at approximately $15 billion over five years (2026-2030), will integrate gigawatt-scale data centre operations with a robust subsea cable network and clean energy infrastructure to support advanced AI workloads in India.
