IIT Guwahati signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Coventry University Group (UK) to enhance collaboration in research, innovation, and academic exchange. The partnership focuses particularly on advancing developments in Artificial Intelligence and healthcare through joint initiatives. The agreement includes provisions for academic and research mobility, joint doctoral programmes, and collaborative research projects. A major theme of the partnership is “AI for One Health,” which aims to integrate artificial intelligence with healthcare systems to address societal health challenges. This collaboration builds on the earlier AI Impact Pre-Summit event hosted in January 2026, which emphasised using AI to strengthen healthcare integration and interdisciplinary innovation.
