AWS Announces New Builder Loft in Hyderabad to Empower India’s Developer Community

Hyderabad: Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced plans to open a new AWS Builder Loft in Hyderabad, creating a dedicated community space where developers, students and technology professionals can collaborate, learn and build innovative solutions.

The Hyderabad facility will be launched alongside new AWS Builder Lofts in Berlin and São Paulo, as the cloud technology company expands the initiative globally. The first AWS Builder Loft opened in San Francisco in July 2025, and AWS said the expansion follows the strong response to the original location.

The permanent community spaces will provide developers with access to free workshops, networking events, pitch nights, content creation facilities, collaboration and co-working areas, and event-hosting spaces. The facilities will be open to developers, students and technology professionals looking to connect with peers and explore new technologies.

The Hyderabad Builder Loft is expected to become a hub for India’s growing developer ecosystem, with a focus on artificial intelligence, cloud-native architecture and application development. AWS said the space will enable Indian developers to upskill, exchange ideas and collaborate on technologies designed for India and global markets.

“Twenty years ago, AWS launched its first services, and it was the builder community that believed in us from the very beginning,” said David Nalley, Director of Developer Experience at AWS.

“These spaces are our way of investing back into that community, giving developers a place to come together, build real things, and learn from each other. Not through a screen, but in person, side by side,” he added.

The Hyderabad Builder Loft is expected to further strengthen AWS’s engagement with India’s technology and startup ecosystem while providing developers with a physical space to experiment, network and turn ideas into real-world applications.

PM Modi Launches Major Development Projects in Hyderabad, Calls Cyberabad India’s Growth Engine

Hyderabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for several major development projects in Hyderabad, highlighting Cyberabad’s growing role as a key driver of economic and technological growth in India.

The Prime Minister was joined by Telangana Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla and Chief Minister Revanth Reddy during the event.

Addressing the gathering, PM Modi said Cyberabad has emerged as a critical hub for Telangana’s progress and holds importance not only nationally but globally.

“The strength of Cyberabad is both national and global. It is a major centre for the rapid development of Telangana and the country. Therefore, today from Cyberabad, numerous major projects are being launched to make Telangana a major manufacturing powerhouse of the country,” he said.

He stated that the newly launched and proposed projects would create thousands of employment opportunities and significantly improve infrastructure connectivity in the state.

“The projects whose foundation stone was laid or inaugurated today will provide thousands of new jobs here. Telangana’s connectivity has also been strengthened. I congratulate the people of Telangana for these projects,” PM Modi added.

Highlighting the Centre’s investment in Telangana’s railway sector, the Prime Minister compared current allocations with the pre-2014 period.

“For an undivided Andhra Pradesh before 2014, the railway budget was even less than ₹1,000 crore. Today, the railway budget for Telangana alone is approximately ₹5,500 crore. Currently, work is underway on railway projects worth about ₹50,000 crore,” he said.

PM Modi also reaffirmed the Central government’s commitment to Telangana’s development and welfare.

He said the youth, farmers, industries, MSMEs, and startups in Telangana are playing a crucial role in shaping the state’s future.

“Today, the youth of Telangana are dreaming new dreams. Farmers want to move forward with new hopes. Industries, MSMEs, and startups here all want to contribute to building a developed Telangana because if Telangana develops, India will develop,” he said.

Assuring continued support from the Centre, PM Modi said the government would work at an even faster pace to help fulfil the aspirations of people across Telangana.

The event marked another major push toward infrastructure expansion, industrial growth, and connectivity development in Telangana, reinforcing Hyderabad’s position as a leading economic hub in India.
