Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani on Friday announced the launch of AI-first ‘Healthcare Temples’ in Ahmedabad and Mumbai, as part of the conglomerate’s broader vision to revolutionise India’s healthcare infrastructure.
Speaking at the 5th Annual Conference of the Society for Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery – Asia Pacific (SMISS-AP) in Mumbai, Adani unveiled plans to build 1,000-bed integrated medical campuses, marking the beginning of a nationwide initiative.
“These Healthcare Temples will be world-class, affordable, AI-first ecosystems,” Adani said, adding that the Mayo Clinic is serving as a design and standards partner to guide the implementation and global benchmarking of the initiative.
The healthcare expansion is part of Adani Group’s broader capital investment plan of nearly $100 billion over the next five years. Adani described it as an unprecedented commitment in Indian private sector history, aimed at shaping the future of the nation.
Reflecting on his entrepreneurial journey, Adani shared personal anecdotes—from his early days making a modest commission in Mumbai, to being called back to Ahmedabad to run his brother’s PVC factory at 19. “Entrepreneurship never begins with a grand vision. It begins with conviction and the courage to dream alone,” he remarked.
Adani also revisited the story of the Mundra Port, a landmark project that evolved from a salt jetty into India’s largest multi-cargo port. “Mundra is the manifestation of belief made real,” he said, noting its transformation into a hub for power generation, solar and wind energy manufacturing, and industrial clusters.
Today, the Adani Group has emerged as:
- India’s largest private airport operator, handling over 25% of passenger traffic and 38% of air cargo
- India’s largest ports and logistics network, managing 30% of seaborne cargo
- The world’s second-largest solar power company and builder of a 30 GW hybrid renewable energy park
- A major player in cement, aerospace and defence, data centres, mining, and real estate.
With this massive healthcare initiative and continued diversification, the Adani Group aims to cement its role as a key driver in India’s economic and infrastructural transformation.
