HYDERABAD, India — Harvard Kennedy School has invited Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to participate as a speaker at its upcoming AI Policy Symposium scheduled for March 27, the Chief Minister’s Office said on Sunday.
The invitation was extended by the organizing team of the AI Policy Symposium, which is being hosted by the Business and Government Programme in collaboration with the AI and Tech Policy Caucus at Harvard Kennedy School, with support from several Harvard-based research centers and think tanks.
According to the Chief Minister’s Office, Revanth Reddy has been invited to speak on a panel titled “AI as Infrastructure & Compute Power: Impact on Livability & Workforce.”
The session will examine artificial intelligence as a form of strategic infrastructure, with discussions focused on data centers, energy systems, compute corridors, public-private coordination, and workforce pathways needed for responsible expansion of AI technologies.
The invitation also cited Telangana’s policy-driven push to develop an AI City as part of the Bharat Future City initiative. Organizers said the Chief Minister’s governance experience and policy initiatives in building AI ecosystems — including land allocation, power infrastructure, skill development, regulatory frameworks, and investment partnerships — would offer practical insights for global policymakers and industry leaders.
The AI Policy Symposium is expected to bring together senior figures from government, industry, and academia to discuss AI governance, geopolitical competition, enabling infrastructure, and cross-sector collaboration.
Officials said the invitation reflects growing international recognition of Telangana’s emerging role in artificial intelligence, technology policy, and innovation-led development.
