Here is why Mukesh Ambani is more of a strategist than just a businessman. After disrupting telecom and retail, he’s now eyeing a $13 billion market that no one expected — cloud storage. But what even is this cloud industry? Well, cloud storage allows people and businesses to store files, photos, and even entire databases online — and India’s public cloud market is set to contribute 8% to India’s GDP by 2026. So how does Ambani plan to shake it up? With his signature move: price destruction at scale. While Apple charges ₹75/month for just 50 GB and Google charges ₹130/month for 100 GB, Jio will (Maybe) offer 100 GB completely free to its users starting this Diwali. But here’s the twist: Ambani isn’t just entering cloud storage — he’s building an AI empire. Enter JioBrain — Jio’s AI initiative that aims to build India-specific AI models. And to do that, one thing is critical: data. With millions uploading their data to JioCloud for free, Jio is building a massive, India-first data engine to train its AI. And it’s not random — Jio already controls 8% of global mobile traffic. It's already the world’s largest mobile data company. So, while others are charging you to store your data, Jio is storing it for free — and using it to train its AI. This is business warfare with long-term vision. ✅ Actionable takeaway: If you're a founder or operator, start thinking 3 steps ahead. What looks like a generous offer today can become your biggest asset tomorrow. Ask yourself: What actions am I taking? What systems am I building? And how can I turn them into long-term moats?
