Qualcomm Likely to Partner with Tata Group and the Indian Government
Qualcomm, the global leader in smartphone chip manufacturing, is collaborating closely with the Indian government and Tata Group to investigate the possibility of locally packaging its latest AI PC chip in the near future, according to Qualcomm’s chief financial officer, Akash Palkhiwala, Economic Times reported. Palkhiwala said that Qualcomm has established a strong collaboration with the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) and Tata Group to explore the utilization of Indian manufacturing facilities for our chips. “Many of our chips are at the forefront of technology, making it challenging to fully leverage India’s manufacturing capabilities until we have leading-edge technology manufacturing here. However, there is a significant opportunity in terms of chip packaging. We are closely working with Tata Group, our longstanding partners, and this partnership presents a clear synergy for us.” added Palkhiwala. Palkhiwala emphasised Qualcomm’s substantial presence in India, underscoring its pivotal role within the company. The dedicated India team is integral to the development of our entire roadmap, with their significant contributions, particularly in shaping this crucial chip. Qualcomm recently announced that its redesigned Snapdragon Elite X chip, optimised for handling AI tasks such as summarising emails, text generation, and image creation, will be available in laptops from next year. Qualcomm also claims that its chip will deliver “50% faster peak multi-thread performance” than Apple’s M2 chip. Qualcomm also introduced Snapdragon Seamless, a cross-platform technology enabling Android, Windows, and Snapdragon devices with different operating systems to discover and share information, operating as one integrated system.
