"We are not only expanding 5G in the country but also moving in the direction of becoming leaders in the area of <keyword id="7268171" type="General" weightage="70" keywordseo="6g" source="Orion">6G</keyword> technology. Everyone knows what happened during the 2G (referring to the spectrum allocation scam during the UPA regime). During our government, 4G was expanded but there was no stain on us. I am confident that India will lead the world in 6G technology," he said. The Prime Minister added that whether it is telecom, technology, or connectivity or whether it is 6G, AI, cybersecurity, semiconductors, drones or space sector, the future is going to be very different. "Within a year of the launch of 5G, nearly four lakh 5G base stations have been working today. They are covering 97% of the cities and more than 80% of the population," Modi said.

"Recently, Google has announced the manufacturing of its Pixel phone in India. Samsung's Fold 5 mobile phone and Apple's iPhone 15 are being manufactured in India. We are proud that the world is using Made in India mobile phones now," PM Modi said. India has become an exporter from a net importer, he added. "India has reached 43rd position in mobile broadband speed from the previous rank of 118," PM Modi said, adding that 2014 (when NDA came to power) is not a date, it is 'badlav' (change). Referring to various measures of the government, the Prime Minister said that access to capital, access to resources and access to technology is the government's priority. During the programme, PM Modi awarded 100 '5G Use Case Labs' to educational institutions across the country.

<keyword id="6354504" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="reliance-jio" source="Orion">Reliance Jio</keyword> Infocomm Limited, a leading name in India's telecommunications sector, has unveiled <keyword id="19283546" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="JioSpaceFiber" source="Orion">JioSpaceFiber</keyword>, the country's first satellite-based gigabit broadband service, marking a step in connecting remote regions of India with high-speed internet. According to a press release by Reliance <keyword id="2003276" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="jio" source="Orion">Jio</keyword>, this launch was showcased at the India Mobile Congress on Friday, as Reliance Jio seeks to extend high-speed broadband services to areas that were previously inaccessible. JioSpaceFiber will soon be available throughout India at highly competitive prices. Reliance Jio already serves more than 450 million Indian consumers with high-speed broadband services, and with the introduction of JioSpaceFiber, it aims to make digital inclusivity a reality for every household. This satellite-based service, added to its existing offerings of <keyword id="3690255" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="jiofiber" source="Orion">JioFiber</keyword> and JioAirFiber, ensures that consumers and businesses can access reliable, low-latency, high-speed internet and entertainment, regardless of their location. The satellite network will also bolster mobile backhaul capacity, thereby expanding the reach and scalability of Jio's True5G network even in remote areas. For this ambitious endeavour, Jio has partnered with SES, tapping into the latest in medium earth orbit (MEO) satellite technology. Leveraging SES's O3b and new O3b mPOWER satellites, JioSpaceFiber is set to revolutionize the broadband industry by providing scalable and cost-effective internet access across India, all while guaranteeing reliability and flexibility. To showcase the capabilities of JioSpaceFiber, the service has already been connected to four of India's most remote locations: Gir in Gujarat, Korba in Chhattisgarh, Nabarangpur in Odisha, and ONGC-Jorhat in Assam. <keyword id="6361416" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="akash-ambani" source="Orion">Akash Ambani</keyword>, Chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited, highlighted the significance of this launch, saying, " Jio has enabled millions of homes and businesses in India to experience broadband internet for the first time. With JioSpaceFiber, we expand our reach to cover the millions yet to be connected". Ambfurther said, "JioSpaceFiber will allow everyone, everywhere, to fully participate in the new digital society with gigabit access to online government, education, health, and entertainment services". John-Paul Hemingway, Chief Strategy Officer at SES Networks, shared his excitement about the partnership, stating, "Together with Jio, we are honoured to support the Government of India's Digital India initiative with a unique solution that aims at delivering multiple gigabits per second of throughput to any location in India". Hemingway added, "Our first fibre-like services from space are already deployed today in parts of India, and we cannot wait to see how this will lead to digital transformation even in the most rural parts of the country." Reliance Jio's JioSpaceFiber marks a pivotal moment in India's digital transformation, promising to extend high-speed broadband access to even the most remote parts of the country, aligning with the vision of a truly Digital India.

He's since played a key role landing multibillion dollar investments from Google and Facebook. If he handles Jio well, he may be given a crack at larger chunks of the family's conglomerate," said the profile in Time 100 Next.

As the grandson of <keyword id="6418409" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="dhirubhai-ambani" source="Orion">Dhirubhai Ambani</keyword> and son of Mukesh Ambani, the Junior Ambani has always had big shoes to fill, but he seems to be stepping into them quite effortlessly. He is also keeping the family tradition of breaking into lists by becoming the only Indian to enter the Time Magazine’s Next 100 list. Time’s Next 100 list essentially puts the spotlight on emerging leaders who are shaping the world of business, sports, finance, entertainment, politics, science, health, and activism. The list also features the likes of American singer SZA, actress Sydney Sweeney, basketball player Ja Morant, Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz, actor and television personality <keyword id="945810" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="keke-palmer" source="Orion">Keke Palmer</keyword>, and environment activist Farwiza Farhan. Not surprisingly, the scion of the Ambani family has made it as an A-lister, given the mantle he holds as the Chairman of Reliance <keyword id="2003276" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="jio" source="Orion">Jio</keyword> with 426 million users. One of the heirs of <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/mukesh-d-ambani/">Mukesh Ambani’s $80.5 billion empire</a>, the 30-year-old has his work cut out, as the company looks to launch 5G services later this year. Akash is married to <keyword id="6296629" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="shloka-mehta" source="Orion">Shloka Mehta</keyword>, who hails from one of the richest diamond families of India. The Ambani family welcomed their first grandchild, <keyword id="10488859" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="prithvi-ambani" source="Orion">Prithvi Ambani</keyword>, in 2020. Reliance Jio has been touted as one of the fastest growing companies in the world and Akash has reportedly played a key role in bringing marquee investors and global giants like Facebook, Catterton, Silver Lake and General Atlantic to the company. Akash Ambani’s journey of becoming one of the most influential next-gen leaders began only four years ago, when he gave his first public address at the India Digital Open Summit. “Our chairman believes India is on a path to be a technology innovation leader and technology superpower. We are fortunate to be living in India, where we have a vision for Digital India. At Jio we believe AR/VR will grow at 50% CAGR for next 5 years,” said Akash Ambani, who was 26 years old at the time. On June 27 2022, Reliance Chairman Mukesh Ambani handed over the reins of the empire to his eldest son <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/mukesh-ambani-steps-down-as-director-of-reliance-jio-akash-ambani-appointed-chairman/articleshow/92521472.cms">Akash Ambani</a>. Referring to the next generation Ambanis — Isha, Akash and Anant — Mukesh Ambani said at the company’s 45th annual general meeting, “All three have fully inherited our founder's mindset. They are first among equals in a young team of leaders and professionals who are already doing amazing things at Reliance.” Akash Ambani’s ambitious plan to launch virtual PCs in India Reliance Jio Infocomm (RJIL), a subsidiary of RIL, is the largest telecom operator in India. From less than 700 professionals a few years ago, the RJIL team has grown rapidly to over 10,000 professionals today. “With 5G being rolled out in India, the current 800 million connected internet devices will double to 1.5 billion connected internet devices in just a year,” said Akash Ambani at the latest annual general meeting. The 30-year-old also announced the launch of ‘<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/enterprise/news/jio-airfiber-to-offer-cloud-pc-services-soon/articleshow/93857295.cms">virtual PC</a>’ through the launch of Jio AirFiber giving a boost to AI-enabled services in India. “5G gives ultra-high fibre-like speed over the air without any wires. We are calling it JioAirFiber. With JioAirFiber, it will be really easy to quickly connect your home or office to Gigabit-speed Internet,” he said. Investing ₹2 lakh crore, the next-generation Ambani will also head the implementation of 5G services in India – the latest version called standalone 5G sans dependence on 4G network. Challenges for Ambani junior while heading Reliance Reliance Jio offers its services at affordable tariffs, a dream that the founder of Reliance Industries had of offering telecom services at the rate of a postcard. While Akash Ambani’s father delivered on that promise, the 30-year old scion will have his job cut out as the company looks to launch its ambitious 5G services this Diwali. The company faces competition from the Sunil Mittal-helmed Airtel. Interestingly, Airtel is a professionally run company and both of Mittal’s sons pursue their own business interests. An avid sports nut Apart from heading the most ambitious projects in the world, Akash is known to have a keen interest in sports and premium cars. Akash’s first public appearance was at a Mumbai Indians cricket match as the company bought the team <a href="https://www.republicworld.com/sports-news/cricket-news/ipl-mega-auction-which-teams-were-sold-in-the-2008-inaugural-edition-and-at-what-prices.html">for $111.9 million back in 2008</a>. He is an avid cricket fan and can be seen regularly leading auctions to filter through the players for the Mumbai Indians IPL league. Ambani Junior is also a fan of the Arsenal football club. In 2016, he got to play in his private football area with Arsenal’s former forward Thierry Henry. Alongside sports, Akash has a legion of premium cars like Bentley Bentayga, Range <keyword id="5160615" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="rover-vogue" source="Orion">Rover Vogue</keyword>, BMW 5-Series, Lamborghini Urus, Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe and Maybach 62 to list a few. The passion for fancy wheels comes from both his parents. The road to living up to the name of “industry royalist” is long but Akash Ambani’s blueprint for Reliance is being closely watched by the world.

"<keyword id="2003276" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="jio" source="Orion">Jio</keyword> is committed to offering world-class, affordable 5G and 5G-enabled services. We will provide services, platforms and solutions that will accelerate <keyword id="3658" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="india" source="Orion">India</keyword>'s digital revolution, especially in crucial sectors like education, <keyword id="6354525" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="healthcare" source="Orion">healthcare</keyword>, agriculture, manufacturing and e-governance," he had emphasised after emerging as the leader in the 5G spectrum auction, including the pricey 700 MHz band. With 'Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav,' Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="Orion">Narendra Modi</keyword> has shared his vision of building a new Aatmanirbhar Bharat by the year 2022. The initiative is to celebrate and commemorate 75 years of independence and the history of people, culture and achievements. The official journey of 'Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav' commenced on March 12 2021 which started a 75-week countdown to our 75th anniversary of independence and will end on August 15, a day when pan-India 5G roll out can be announced. "Jio is fully ready for 5G rollout in the shortest period of time because of its nationwide fibre presence, all-IP network with no legacy infrastructure, indigenous 5G stack and strong global partnerships across the technology ecosystem," according to the company. Jio said its 5G network will enable the next generation of digital solutions that will accelerate India's AI-driven march towards becoming a $5 trillion economy. "The speed, scale and societal impact of Jio's 4G rollout is unmatched anywhere in the world. Now, with a bigger ambition and stronger resolve, Jio is set to lead India's march into the 5G era," said Akash Ambani. According to a Nomura report, 700 MHz band could potentially give Reliance Jio "an edge in terms of network quality, especially indoors, and this could increase investors' concerns on further spectrum outgo for Bharti if R-Jio were able to offer significant differentiation in network quality (vs Bharti) with 5G on 700 band".
