The launch of the AI Center of Excellence at NEC in collaboration with WeXL AI marks a significant step aligned with the Viksit Bharat @2047 vision—preparing young engineers to lead India’s next phase of innovation and digital growth.

The initiative is structured around two focused capability engines: Confident Communicators, powered by the indigenous Bharat English Test (BET™), and Future-Ready Platform Builders, enabling students to design and build deployable AI-driven systems.

Students gain hands-on exposure to the complete engineering lifecycle, including architecture design, data pipelines, APIs, CI/CD, security, observability, and enterprise-grade deployment across real-world use cases such as voice AI, digital platforms, and healthcare systems.

During the launch, Mr. Naveen Kumar Linga (CEO, WeXL AI) and Mr. Kiran Kumar Atmakuru (CSO & COO, WeXL AI) were honoured by NEC in recognition of their leadership and contribution toward building a future-ready, deep-technology-driven talent ecosystem.

This initiative reflects NEC’s visionary leadership—particularly Mr. Chakravarthi Mittapalli—in strengthening India’s pipeline of engineers capable of designing, shipping, and scaling platforms from Bharat to the world.
