Google for India 2024 event: What to expect
Although specific details for 2024 haven't been disclosed yet, based on last year's announcements, we can anticipate a strong emphasis on digital payments, AI, and local manufacturing.
- In 2023, Google unveiled its plans to manufacture Pixel phones in India as part of the Make in India initiative, starting with the Pixel 8. This year, it's likely that Google will announce the local production of Pixel 9 smartphones and their availability in India.
- Additionally, we expect Google to expand its AI capabilities, particularly in local languages and tools for small businesses, as part of its ongoing mission to promote digital inclusivity across the nation.
- In 2023, Google made significant progress in promoting financial inclusion by enabling users to access pre-approved credit lines via Google Pay. It's possible that the company will announce further expansion of this initiative in 2024 to help India's underserved population gain improved access to financial services.
- Last year, Google introduced DigiKavach, an initiative to address online fraud and misinformation. Given the increasing importance of digital safety, we can anticipate further enhancements to these programs, aiming to protect users in the ever-changing digital landscape.
