Jio in talks with US companies Comcast, Charter for technology licensing deals in exchange for equity

What's behind this

Jio Platforms, controlled by Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries, is exploring tech‑for‑equity partnerships with US cable operators Comcast and Charter Communications to bring its broadband technology to the United States, a move that could let the Indian telecom company access overseas markets without building its own broadband networks abroad. The company has also discussed potential collaboration with South Africa’s MTN Group, but those negotiations fell through.
