Utpal Chakraborty's current jobs
As the Founder and Chief Scientist of GAHNA Sovereign AI initiative under ExorionAI, I envisioned building an AI ecosystem that India can truly call its own sovereign, explainable, and domain-specific. Through GAHNA, I have been leading the development of a family of Small Language Models designed not for generic use, but for national priorities such as cybersecurity, finance, education, and governance. These models are lightweight, auditable, and capable of running securely within on-premise or air-gapped environments, ensuring complete ownership of data and algorithms. At ExorionAI, I focus on translating this vision into applied innovation, building AI architectures that are transparent, scalable, and trustworthy. My goal is to establish India as a global leader in sovereign AI innovation, where technology aligns seamlessly with our linguistic, cultural, and regulatory fabric.
