(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) Manu Kumar Jain, formerly the India head of Xiaomi, has taken on a new role as India Chief Executive Officer of G42, an Abu Dhabi-based artificial intelligence (AI) company.
In a LinkedIn post, Jain expressed his excitement about the new opportunity, saying,“I am delighted to announce that I am joining G42, a leading global AI company, to kickstart a new AI business in India! Together, we will innovate, disrupt, and drive forward the frontiers of artificial intelligence.“
He also emphasised the transformative potential of AI, stating,“#AI is transforming our lives and industries, and its potential is limitless. There is a great opportunity to harness this power and make a significant impact on India's tech landscape.”
Jain added that he is all set to“embark on a new and exciting adventure.”
Following his resignation from Xiaomi in January - after nine years of service - Jain shared a heartfelt note on LinkedIn, saying,“Last 9 years, I'm lucky to have received so much love that it makes this goodbye so difficult. Thank you all. The end of a journey also marks the beginning of a new one, full of exciting opportunities. Hello to a new adventure!”
In a separate post, while reflecting on his time at Xiaomi, Jain added,“From a small room with a single team member to a family of 50,000+: it was an epic journey! This was our 1st ever office 9 years ago. Initially, I used to sit alone in this small 6-seater room. Used to feel so lonely, not having anyone to speak to. Even served Tea / Coffee to guests myself. I remember feeling so happy & grateful when the first team member (Myshkin) joined. I finally had someone to talk to.”
