Experiencing the possibilities with AI up close! #DellTechForum Mumbai


As I settled into my seat at the Dell Technologies Forum 2024, there was a sense of anticipation in the air. The event has always been a hotbed of innovations, and this year is no exception – being the AI edition. 


After an electrifying introduction by Emcee, Mandira Bedi and a power-packed performance, Alok Ohrie, President & Managing Director of Dell Technologies India, took the stage for what turned out to be an unforgettable keynote session. Having just witnessed it; all I can say the session was not just informative but also deeply inspiring. Alok’s insights offered a fascinating glimpse into the road ahead for India, as our country's digital journey continues to gain momentum.

What stood out to me was Alok’s emphasis on Dell Technologies’ 40 years of innovation and how the company has been instrumental in our country’s remarkable strides toward digitalization over the past few years. The way Alok articulated India’s growing aspirations, now being supercharged by AI, was compelling. 

The session was a vivid reminder of the incredible progress we've made, with 100 Smart Cities already in place, billions of digital transactions occurring every second, and a rapidly growing number of connected cities. But what was even more exciting was hearing how Dell Technologies, with its unwavering commitment to driving human progress, is right at the heart of this transformation.


As GenAI-driven innovation becomes the new norm, the Global Keynote offered a compelling glimpse into an AI-first future. Peter Marrs, President of Asia Pacific, Japan, and Greater China (APJC) at Dell Technologies, painted a vivid picture of how Dell Technologies is set to support enterprises in advancing their AI initiatives. The session highlighted the Dell AI Factory, which promises a wealth of opportunities, underscoring Dell’s significant investment in AI. Dell’s confidence is clearly supported by a comprehensive portfolio of AI solutions. A key takeaway was the emphasis on data as a crucial differentiator and the importance for enterprises to optimize their IT infrastructure to fully leverage AI’s potential.

Dell AI Factory – Is this the building block for seamless AI integration? 

What really struck a chord with me during the discussion was Dell AI Factory. It’s a vision of how AI can be fully integrated into every aspect of a business. The focus on creating an environment where AI can seamlessly fit into existing operations, no matter the stage of a company’s AI journey, felt both groundbreaking and essential. I strongly believe that with this approach, Dell is making AI more accessible and practical, empowering businesses to fully tap into its potential. The possibilities, from content creation to digital twins, highlighted how the Dell AI Factory could be leveraged to accelerate organizations’ transformation journey. 

Now that the Keynote Sessions are over, I'm excited to see how the rest of the event unfolds. I’m sure that the mix of dynamic presentations, engaging discussions, and multiple breakout sessions will enrich my knowledge and experience at the end of the day.
