Big day for all of us at Sarvam. I want to start by thanking my team for shouldering this mission with immense belief, urgency, and care. Reflecting on the last few years of the founding journey, my conviction has only deepened: - AI will be far more consequential than most of us realize even today - The value loops of this new world cannot be owned by a couple of companies - Country of India scale cannot rent intelligence. We have to build it ourselves We are going to push hard across every layer of the company, but the thing that excites me most right now is our shot at building frontier-class AI systems from India. We are assembling the team, the compute, and the deployment engine to make this happen. I also want to thank our new investors. HCLTech’s partnership opens joint opportunities to bring our research and platform to many of HCLTech’s clients - this is also a unique template to bring together India’s strengths. BVP brings to the team the rare combination of being at the forefront of India's biggest tech shifts for the past two decades while globally having partnered with category defining enterprise AI companies. Onwards

It is an article from @TOIIndiaNews. Few years ago, many questioned whether Coimbatore could absorb the office space being built. Today, the city has virtually 0% vacancy across its 5.5 million sq ft Grade A & B office stock. Demand from IT, BPM, healthcare and pharma companies has tightened the market significantly, while only limited new supply is expected this year. This is exactly why I have been saying that Coimbatore is evolving from a manufacturing city into a diversified business and services hub. The focus now should be on accelerating office supply, infrastructure, engineering ecosystem development and attracting more GCCs. The state government @CMOTamilnadu needs to push the throttle. For the time being, it should focus on expanding ELCOT and invest in developing at least 3–4 million sq. ft. of office space over the next 2–3 years. At the very least, projects of that scale should be initiated within the next year or two. The opportunity is clearly there. @UpdatesChennai @UpdatesKovai @weluvcoimbatore @tweetKishorec #Coimbatore #TamilNadu #OfficeMarket

#Chennai had huge demand. Supply was pathetic. Even now supply is poor but demand already started slowing down. #Coimbatore is having huge demand but getting into same supply trap. Extremely disappointing @Guidance_TN @Keerthana4VNR literally giving away golden goose

Baggage claim in Coimbatore airport from a few weeks ago. It never used to be this crowded. All big check-in bags, clearly international passengers, but all are connecting through Delhi, Bengaluru, etc instead of direct international flights to Cbe. Upgrade the airport already.

Air Marshal Ashutosh Dixit #CISC, visited the L&T Precision Engineering & Systems facility at Coimbatore to review progress of key indigenous defence programmes under the #MakeInIndia initiative. The Air Marshal reviewed the production status of Tejas Mk1A wings and BrahMos missile airframe validation facilities, reaffirming the Defence Services' steadfast commitment towards strengthening India's self-reliance in defence manufacturing. His visit underscores the active support being extended by the Defence Forces to indigenous industry partners and the vision of an #AatmanirbharBharat in defence and aerospace. #IndianAirForce #MakeInIndia #TejasMk1A #BrahMos #DefenceManufacturing #LNT @DefenceMinIndia @SethSanjayMP @SpokespersonMoD @MIB_India

Almost all major cities in India are either part of or connected to the #expressway network, except #Coimbatore, which is still waiting for its place on the map.

El Niño may impact the SW monsoon during the coming weeks.

Coimbatore could have been developed in a way similar to how Pune was scaled up in Maharashtra. Despite limited government support over the last 15 years, #Coimbatore stands as one of India’s leading Tier-2 GCC hubs. •Zero PPP tech parks •Zero SIPCOT for IT •Significant ELCOT land bank remaining underutilised for 15years With just one TIDEL Park established in 2010 and few private-led tech parks from Coimbatore developers, the city has steadily built momentum. There is a strong need for faster action on Coimbatore’s IT infrastructure by #TVK government. The government should prioritise: •Development of at least 2 PPP-based tech parks and new dedicated SIPCOT for IT. •Faster utilisation of existing ELCOT land parcels •Increase FSI asap.

KPMG's latest Global Capability Centre country. Chennai has lure in more GCCs to stay in touch with Pune/Hyd/NCR. Need Coimbatore to punch about its weight. It's already emerging as biggest Tier-2 destination for GCC!! @Guidance_TN @Keerthana4VNR @CMOTamilnadu 🙏

Chennai is on course for a future marked by more extreme heat, increasingly intense rainfall and heightened flood risks, according to a new climate projection report that warns of immediate and escalating climate threats across India's coastline.

We're proud to officially open the new @Qualitest Coimbatore Delivery Center! To mark the occasion, our CEO, Andrew Duncan, joined the team for a traditional inauguration ceremony before the new office opened. Here's a look at some highlights from the day. #NewOffice #Qualitest

India will never produce an NVIDIA, and it has nothing to do with talent. R&D is the purest form of investment, and the central bank has spent decades making investment the dumbest thing you can do with a rupee. I've been surfing the semiconductor wave for a while now, reading 10-Ks for fun. Spent last month in the Bay Area and the gap between India and the US is not a gap; it's a different universe. Conversations about agentic AI and the next decade of hardware, with my boomer relatives Waymo-ing around SF and self-driving home on Tesla FSD like it's normal. Nobody there thinks any of this is remarkable; they already live in the future. NVIDIA spends nearly twice as much on R&D as every listed company in India combined. Silicon Motion, the world's leading maker of NAND flash controllers and around since 1995, ploughs 29.7% of revenue back into R&D. Micron runs 10.2%, NVIDIA 9.9%, on revenue bases that dwarf anything we have. India Inc? 0.85% of turnover, and half our listed companies report zero R&D at all. The easy move is to lambast our promoters and the dhandomaxxing capitalist class, or the foreign MNCs running India as a glorified offshoring unit, or the babus who fund nothing useful. Satisfying. But Wrong. The reason no rational Indian founder pours money into frontier R&D is that there is genuinely no payoff at the end of it. Why? 1. R&D compounds, and compounding punishes laggards. At the edge of science a 1-2% gain is a moat; Intel spent 20 years performing impossible physics every 24 months because Moore's Law was the business model, and that consistency makes them one of the goated companies of all time even after they got mogged recently. NVIDIA lives the same way today: invent at the limit or cease to exist. If you're 50% behind, no quantum of innovation closes that. You never touch the high end. You stay a mass-market producer of things that already exist. India is precisely there. 2. The supply side is the real thesis, and it's monetary. Two decades of high inflation, high money-printing, high nominal rates. That regime subsidises consumption and taxes patience. R&D is the longest-duration, highest-variance bet on the board; it is the first thing a 8% risk-free rate kills. Frontier R&D only ever gets funded two ways: a psychopathically risk-tolerant capitalist with cheap capital, or a state with Stalin-grade control. The USSR took agrarian peasants to the first man in space in 20 years; China built its own version. India has neither the state capacity, the political will, nor the balance sheet to do that. So nobody does it. Talent was never the bottleneck. Capital structure was. If you want a SpaceX or a TSMC born here, you need an environment where a conglomerate can deploy $10B and sleep at night: a low-rate regime that makes long-duration investment rational, IP and patent courts that actually function, and policy that doesn't get rewritten every 2-3 years on a minister's whim. Stability is the input. Innovation is the output. Bay Area versus Bombay, we are several universes apart, and you cannot print your way across that distance; you can only compound your way there, and we've spent years optimising for the opposite. The gap won't be bridged. With luck, it narrows.

A humble request to both the Government of Tamil Nadu and the Government of India. Please expedite the Coimbatore Eastern Bypass / Outer Ring Road project. Phase 1 of Western ring road done, push the pending phases as well This is not just another road project. This is the future growth corridor of Western Tamil Nadu. Every year of delay means: • More congestion • Higher logistics costs • Lost investments • Slower industrial growth • Reduced quality of life Coimbatore is growing rapidly. The question is not whether the city will expand. The question is whether we will be ready for that growth. The Outer Ring Road is no longer optional. It is essential. @tvksampathcbe @TVKVijayHQ @AadhavArjuna #Coimbatore #WesternTamilNadu

INDIA'S NEXT GCC CAPITAL IS NOT A METRO. IT IS COIMBATORE. 80 GCCs already operate from Coimbatore. 300,000 technology talent pool. 137 higher education institutions. A world-class manufacturing ecosystem. Lower costs. Lower attrition. Higher quality of life. While Tier-1 cities are battling congestion, soaring costs and talent churn, Coimbatore is quietly becoming India's fastest-growing Tier-2 GCC destination. The next wave of Global Capability Centres won't just be built in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai or Pune. It can be built in Coimbatore. Now is the time to accelerate: ✔ Outer Ring Road ✔ Metro Rail ✔ Airport Expansion ✔ More Grade-A Business Districts Imagine: 250 GCCs 150,000 high-value jobs ₹75,000 crore economic impact The opportunity is here. The question is: Which global company will make the next move before everyone else does? @Keerthana4VNR @TVKVijayHQ #Coimbatore #GCC #GlobalCapabilityCenters #TamilNadu #InvestInTamilNadu #FutureOfWork #IndiaGrowthStory

Coimbatore has heard enough announcements. For the last 15–20 years, governments have announced project after project, but only a handful have actually been completed. The number would be more than 200 plus projects . Will attach the list in another tweet. This time, people expect something different. They don't need new promises. They at least need old promises to be fulfilled. If @TVKVijayHQ and @TVKPartyHQ can deliver even the pending projects proposed by earlier governments, that alone will create a lasting legacy. Coimbatore is waiting for execution, not announcements. @VigneshTvkCbe @tvksampathcbe @Kanimozhi_tvk @SriGiriPrasath @CMOTamilnadu @AadhavArjuna

Tamil Nadu already has → talent → industries → strong MSMEs → engineering colleges → hardworking people What we need now is stronger ecosystems around them. Imagine if cities like Coimbatore had → better public transport → startup hubs → easier MSME funding → founder communities → faster approvals for small businesses Tier-2 cities wouldn’t just support India’s economy. They would drive it. I genuinely believe the next decade belongs to cities that can combine: manufacturing startups quality living. And Coimbatore has the potential to become one of them.

Florida based Software Development firm, "Exzeo" has opened up its new office in Coimbatore at @FliqzoSpaces. This will be the firm's 2nd Indian office following Noida. #Coimbatore
