Anthropic appoints Amlan Mohanty to lead India policy, external affairs

San Francisco-based AI major Anthropic has appointed Amlan Mohanty to lead its policy initiatives in India.

In a post on LinkedIn, Mohanty said, "I'm thrilled to be joining Anthropic to lead policy in India!... India is key to the future of AI - the scale, diversity and potential for impact are unmatched, and what works well here can be replicated in other parts of the world. I'm excited to shape Anthropic's early presence in India and build trusted partnerships with government, industry and civil society."

Prior to joining Anthropic, Mohanty served as an Associate Fellow at the Centre for Responsible AI (CeRAI). He has also led Google's public policy and government affairs in India across privacy, platforms, and AI policy.


Anthropic describes India as its second-largest market for Claude.ai and home to a developer community doing "some of the most technically intense AI work".
