SURESH RAMANI
CEO, TECHGYAN
As India enters an AI-first era, the biggest challenge is not technology but mindset and adoption. Most SMBs still view AI as an IT implementation rather than a business transformation opportunity. At Techgyan, we have been all in on AI for over a year through workshops, blogs, podcasts, solution assessments, and a structured AI & Copilot Advisory Framework. Our deep internal adoption of Copilot, Agentic AI, and Microsoft Fabric gives us a practitioner’s edge. We are prepared to deliver enterprise-scale AI through our core AI Framework, hands- on adoption workshops, and repeatable transformation playbooks. However, the real barriers are low business readiness for AI-driven process redesign, lack of structured adoption programs, poor data governance maturity, and limited focus on AI plus security.
AI cannot scale without AI-specific security. Techgyan has built a Baseline AI Security Checklist for SMBs centred on Microsoft Defender, Purview, and Entra. We focus on protection against AI-generated fraud and deepfakes, data governance and safe prompt engineering, identity- first security with strong access controls, and continuous monitoring of AI activity. AI misuse is the new cyber-attack surface, and we treat it as such.
Our approach is Hybrid by Design, combining Azure cloud-native AI, hybrid deployments for regulated or latency-sensitive workloads, Copilot extensibility, Agentic AI for business workflows, and Microsoft Fabric for unified data and analytics. This aligns with Digital India and IndiaAI by enabling responsible AI, skilling at scale, secure cloud adoption, and adoption-led business outcomes.
