NVIDIA, Bharat1 Launch AI Superpark in Bengaluru

NVIDIA has joined forces with Bengaluru-based Bharat1 AI Research & Innovation City to develop what may be India’s largest dedicated AI campus. The B1 AI Superpark will eventually span 4 million sq. ft. and house 25,000 researchers, starting with an operational 500,000 sq. ft. facility in Sarjapura.

NVIDIA has announced a major partnership with Bharat1 AI Research & Innovation City to build the B1 AI Superpark, a large-scale artificial intelligence campus in Bengaluru’s Sarjapura area. The initiative was unveiled at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi and is being described as one of the most ambitious AI infrastructure projects in India’s history.

The project begins with an already-constructed, 500,000 sq. ft. facility and is designed to scale into a 70-acre AI innovation district spanning nearly 4 million sq. ft. of commercial research and development space. The campus is estimated to cost $650 million and is designed to accommodate more than 25,000 AI researchers, engineers, startups, academic labs, and enterprise teams under one roof.

Unlike conventional tech campuses, the B1 AI Superpark has a distinct research mission: generating real-world data for training agentic and physical AI systems. Bharat1 co-founder Umakant Soni noted that current large language models are probabilistic and lack grounding in real-world conditions, something the Superpark’s city-scale environment is specifically designed to address. The broader Bharat1 AI City vision projects generating nearly one exabyte of 4D data annually to support frontier AI research.

Through the partnership, NVIDIA will supply its accelerated computing stack and AI software platforms to resident companies. Startups within the campus will also gain eligibility for the NVIDIA Inception programme, which provides technical guidance, infrastructure benefits, and access to venture capital networks.

Accel Founding Partner Prashanth Prakash described the initiative as building cognitive infrastructure that positions Bengaluru as a global center for AI development for the Global South.
