A tripartite Memorandum of Understanding sets out cooperation on building AI and Digital Public Infrastructure in tandem.
The Centre for Digital Public Infrastructure (CDPI), the IndiaAI Mission, and the National e-Governance Division (NeGD, MeitY) have signed a tripartite Memorandum of Understanding to build AI and Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) in tandem.
The agreement reflects the Indian government’s growing emphasis on scaling AI innovation on the foundation of the country’s DPI, including Digilocker, Entity Locker, and API Setu. DPI provides the open, interoperable plumbing through digital identity, open payments, and consent-based data-sharing. AI adds an inclusion layer, enabling diversity of access at scale.
CDPI is honoured to support the IndiaAI Mission and NeGD as they show the way on AI-native data infrastructure and initiatives to enhance affordable AI adoption, directed at improving ease of doing business, expanding access to credit, and advancing other development goals.
