AI Quotient Awards 2026 to celebrate India's AI leaders turning innovation into impact
Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving beyond experimentation and into the heart of business. As enterprises and startups across India turn AI pilots into scalable solutions, the Times of India's AI Quotient Awards 2026 , taking place today, September 10 in Mumbai, will bring together the organisations and individuals shaping this transformation.
Celebrating AI that delivers real outcomesThe AI Quotient Awards recognise enterprises, startups and leaders using artificial intelligence to create measurable business impact. From generative AI and intelligent automation to predictive analytics , secure data governance and specialised industry models, the platform celebrates organisations building scalable and future-ready operations.
With 34 awards across four tracks, the programme recognises achievements across industry verticals, functional excellence and maturity-stage flagships, alongside special jury honours.
The awards aim to spotlight not simply the adoption of AI, but the ability to translate the technology into meaningful outcomes for businesses, customers and wider society.
Expert-led evaluationA 15- to 20-member jury comprising AI leaders, chief technology officers, academics and domain specialists will bring expertise and independence to the evaluation process.
Among the distinguished jury members are Harish S. Mehta, Co-Founder and First Chairman of NASSCOM; Neeraj Gupta, former Secretary, Ministry of Finance (DIPAM); Amit Khanna, Partner and Lead – Digital & AI at Grant Thornton Bharat; Sridhar CV, Mission Director, Amaravati Quantum Valley; Mayank, Founder and CEO, ADROSONIC; and Ankit Bose, Head, Nasscom AI.
The expert-led process is designed to ensure that recognition is based on innovation, execution and impact rather than commercial influence.
National recognition for AI excellenceWinners will receive a verified AIQ Winner Badge, along with editorial visibility and recognition amplified across the audience of The Times of India. The awards aim to provide winning organisations and leaders with a platform to demonstrate their contribution to India’s rapidly evolving AI ecosystem.
ADROSONIC , the Knowledge Partner for the awards, views AI as an enabler of human potential rather than a replacement for it. As the AI Quotient Awards 2026 unfold today, the spotlight will be on the teams and individuals moving artificial intelligence from promise to production—and delivering results that matter.
