Gautam Adani on Wednesday announced that Adani Group, in partnership with Singapore’s ITEES, is set to launch the world’s largest finishing school in Mundra—for serving the needs of industries, including green energy, manufacturing, hi-tech, project excellence and industrial design.
In one of India’s largest ‘skill and employ’ initiatives to build this talent pool of an industry-ready workforce, the Adani family will donate over Rs 2,000 crore for establishing internationally benchmarked schools of excellence.
In its initial phase, the program will prioritise establishing the world’s largest finishing school for technical training in Mundra, aiming to skill over 25,000 learners annually for a wide range of industry and service roles. These learners would be fresh graduates and diploma holders with vocational and technical qualifications from ITIs or polytechnics and would be selected for an intensive bootcamp experience within the schools.
This state-of-the-art facility will blend AI-driven immersive learning with cutting-edge innovation centres.
"Delighted to announce one of India’s largest Skill & Employ initiatives! In partnership with Singapore’s ITEES, the global leader in technical training, the Adani Group is launching the world’s largest finishing school in Mundra," the Adani Group chairman wrote on his X profile.

"This state-of-the-art facility will blend AI-driven immersive learning with cutting-edge innovation centres and annually train over 25,000 learners to help accelerate the Make in India movement," Adani wrote.
Each of these finishing schools, called Adani Global Skills Academy, will select students from technical and vocational education backgrounds in India aligned to their industry and role aspiration. Once these students have been certified in their chosen field of study, they will be provided employment within the Adani Group as well as the broader industry, depending on their role and field of training. This will ensure that trained professionals are first-day, first-hour industry-ready and benchmarked to global standards of excellence.
The Adani Global Skills Academy will be the largest of its kind in the world and provide an immersive learning experience, with innovation centres and AI-based simulators combined with mixed reality-based learning, within a fully residential facility for students and faculty.
“This partnership is critical to our initiative as a group to build high-level technical talent and is in line with our commitment towards the Make-in-India focus across our portfolio. With deep engagement across academic quality assurance, certification-led learning pathways, faculty and student exchange programs and leadership development, this partnership will embed the best of application-led learning to support industries across sectors, thus contributing to Viksit Bharat,” said Robin Bhowmik, CEO of Adani Skills & Education.
