Anthropic to open new office in India by early 2026
Anthropic, the AI company supported by Google and Amazon, just announced its first Indian office will open in Bengaluru by early 2026.
This will be their second Asia-Pacific hub (after Tokyo), and it's all about meeting India's fast-growing need for smart AI solutions.
Claude's language upgrades and more
The Bengaluru office will focus on building AI that fits India's unique mix of languages and industries.
Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, is in India right now, meeting with officials and big companies to kick off partnerships.
Their chatbot, Claude, already has a strong following here—India is its second-biggest market—and now it's getting upgrades in Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Urdu, and more.
The goal: make AI more helpful in fields like education, health, and farming, and support local startups and nonprofits.
This move also shows how India is becoming a major player in global AI, with Anthropic planning to grow its team and launch even more partnerships soon.
