Gurugram, Aug 3: Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the future of work, creating new opportunities across every industry. As demand for AI talent grows, empowering more young women with practical technology skills will be critical to building India’s next generation of innovators.
Across Maharashtra, Samsung Innovation Campus is helping make that transition possible by equipping young women with industry-relevant AI skills, hands-on learning and real-world project experience that prepares them for careers in emerging technologies.
Samsung’s flagship future-tech skilling programme has trained more than 26,500 young people across India, including over 1,000 students in Maharashtra, creating greater access to AI education and helping more young women confidently pursue careers in technology.
For Himanshi Sharma, a student at Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology , Navi Mumbai, Samsung Innovation Campus became the bridge between classroom learning and the rapidly evolving AI industry.
“I often wondered whether my academic knowledge alone would prepare me for the rapidly evolving AI industry,” she says.
Through hands-on AI training, project-based learning and expert mentorship, Himanshi developed CareerStack AI, an AI-powered Resume Intelligence System that helps job seekers improve their applications through AI-driven insights. She has since secured an internship as an AI & Data Technology Intern at Blue Sapphire, a US-based company, contributing to client-facing and patent-filed projects.
“Instead of viewing AI as just a collection of algorithms, I learned how to build complete solutions for real-world challenges. You don’t need to know everything before you begin. What matters is the willingness to learn, stay curious and keep improving every day,” she says.
For Sunidhishree Prabhakaran, a Computer Engineering student at DY Patil Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology, the programme strengthened her technical capabilities and confidence to pursue opportunities in AI and data-driven technologies.
After completing Samsung Innovation Campus, she secured a placement at Capgemini, demonstrating how industry-aligned skilling can help young women successfully transition from education to employment.
“Samsung Innovation Campus provided me with valuable exposure to Artificial Intelligence through structured training, assignments and expert guidance. The hands-on learning experience strengthened my technical, analytical and presentation skills while helping me apply theoretical concepts to real-world challenges,” she says.
Implemented in collaboration with the Electronics Sector Skills Council of India and the Telecom Sector Skill Council under the National Skill Development Corporation , Samsung Innovation Campus equips young people with practical skills in Artificial Intelligence and emerging technologies while supporting the vision of Skill India and Digital India.
As Samsung marks 30 years in India, Samsung Innovation Campus is helping expand opportunities for young women to participate in India’s growing AI economy. By combining industry-focused learning with practical experience, the programme is enabling aspiring women technologists to build meaningful careers while contributing to a more inclusive and future-ready digital workforce.
