Technological Focus and Future Roadmap

At the October 2026 India Mobile Congress, Managing Director Akash Ambani detailed the company's shift toward advanced connectivity and proprietary technology. Key highlights include:

• 6G Research: Jio has commenced filing patents related to pre-6G technology.
• Satellite Communications: The company is developing an indigenous satellite communications stack, which has been demonstrated to the Ministry of Communications.
• AI Integration: Following a partnership with Google’s Gemini, the company added 30 million subscribers to its flagship AI product.
• Future AI Services: The company plans to launch a voice AI service capable of transcription and summarization in Indian languages at no additional cost to users.

Ambani credited these developments to a team of 12,000 engineers, noting that the company's end-to-end proprietary technology stack facilitated the rapid 19-month rollout of 5G, which now covers 99% of India's population.
