Google to invest $10 Bn in Visakhapatnam data centre cluster
Medial

Google is planning a massive push in India by investing $10 billion to build a new data centre cluster in and around Visakhapatnam. The project will include three campuses in nearby villages such as Adavivaram, Tarluvada, and Rambilli, and will have a total power capacity of 1 gigawatt. Key infrastructure steps include laying three submarine cables, building cable landing stations, and deploying high-capacity fiber and telecom networks. Google aims to make these centres fully operational by July 2028. The deal is expected to be formalized when top Google executives meet with Andhra Pradeshโ€™s IT and Electronics Minister Nara Lokesh in New Delhi on October 14. This will likely be the largest-ever direct investment by Google in Indiaโ€™s digital infrastructure. Earlier, Google had signed a memorandum of understanding with the Andhra Pradesh government in December 2024, soon after a change in state leadership. The state government is also pushing to amend laws and issues related to data to make it easier for such large digital projects to proceed. Visakhapatnamโ€™s data centre cluster will be part of Indiaโ€™s first AI Infrastructure Hub, a zone meant to concentrate cutting-edge digital infrastructure. The aim is to boost advanced research, AI capabilities, and related technology growth in Andhra Pradesh and across India. At present, Google operates data centres in 11 other countries but has no cluster of this scale yet in India.

Deepinder Goyal commits $25 Mn to longevity venture Continue Research The project aims to explore ways to extend human life and improve overall health through research on ageing, nutrition, sleep, and mental wellness. Eternal founder and CEO Deepinder Goyal has committed $25 million from his personal wealth to expand his longevity venture, Continue Research. The project aims to explore ways to extend human life and improve overall health through research on ageing, nutrition, sleep, and mental wellness. Continue Research, which began around two years ago, is not a conventional startup but a research-focused initiative and early-stage funding platform. According to Goyal, the fund will back scientists and entrepreneurs working on fundamental biological questions and health tracking technologies. In a post on X, Goyal said the initiative is fully self-funded and intended to support researchers across the world. He described it as a long-term mission to understand human biology better and promote what he calls the โ€œconscious evolutionโ€ of humanity. Goyal added that the goal is to significantly improve human longevity and quality of life through sustained scientific exploration. Continue Research will provide seed funding to early-stage teams working in the areas of ageing, health optimisation, and preventive wellness. The initiative plans to invest in projects that aim to slow or reverse aspects of biological ageing and help people live healthier for longer. While Goyal continues to lead Zomato, Continue Research operates independently and is not linked to the companyโ€™s parent entity, Eternal. The move marks Goyalโ€™s foray into the longevity and life sciences space, reflecting his growing interest in deep science and the long-term future of human health.
