NEW DELHI: MIT xPRO, in collaboration with Emeritus, has announced the launch of the AI Leadership and Data Strategy Program for India, a 20-week executive program designed to help senior leaders translate AI ambition into enterprise-wide impact. Tailored for CXOs, senior directors, strategy consultants, and founders, the program focuses on aligning AI initiatives with business priorities, building robust data strategies, and enabling responsible, scalable adoption.
Speaking on the launch, TC Haldi from MIT xPRO said, “As AI becomes central to enterprise strategy, the question is no longer whether to adopt AI, but how to lead responsibly at scale. This program equips senior leaders with the frameworks and governance models required to translate AI ambition into sustainable enterprise value.”
The launch comes at a time when India’s AI momentum is accelerating rapidly. According to SAP’s Value of AI Report 2025, Indian firms are investing an average of $31 million in AI initiatives, with 93 percent expecting positive returns within three years. Additionally, 98 percent of Indian business leaders have accelerated AI adoption, and nearly half of enterprises already have multiple AI use cases in production.
As organizations move from experimentation to enterprise-wide deployment, the leadership mandate is evolving. The need is no longer limited to technical implementation. It now requires leaders who can connect AI investments to business outcomes, establish strong data foundations, and embed governance frameworks that ensure responsible and scalable growth. The shift is clear, from isolated pilots to organization-wide transformation, and from innovation-led adoption to accountability-driven execution.
Anchored in MIT xPRO’s leadership and organizational frameworks, the program is designed to build these capabilities through a structured, applied learning experience. Delivered in a blended format of on-demand learning and live online sessions, it combines academic depth with real-world relevance through MIT faculty and industry experts.
The curriculum is designed to translate strategic intent into execution, covering key areas such as systems thinking, AI-driven decision-making, data strategy, and enterprise transformation. Participants will also gain exposure to emerging themes including predictive forecasting, the API economy, and agentic AI, while applying their learning through a capstone project focused on real business challenges.
As Indian enterprises transition from AI ambition to measurable advantage, the program enables leaders to develop a clear AI and data roadmap, strengthen governance, and drive organization-wide adoption. By bridging strategy with execution, it supports leaders in unlocking competitive differentiation while building resilient, future-ready organizations.
Program Details:
- Duration: 20 weeks
- Format: Online learning with live sessions by MIT faculty and industry experts
- Start Date: June 2026
- Program Fee: ₹3,45,000 + GST
