Really enjoyed hosting Professor Anu Ramaswami and the Princeton Startup Immersion Program (PSIP) students in Bangalore last week! We held the evening reception at the Museum of Art and Photography (MAP), featuring a wonderful keynote by Prof. Ramaswami, Director of the Chadha Center For Global India (CGI) at Princeton University. She spoke about the high impact work of the CGI across its main research themes: digital public infrastructure; climate change & decarbonisation; literature, arts, and social policy. It was also energising to hear from the 10 Princeton students interning via PSIP this summer, about their experiences working at companies such as axio, Rapido, IndiQube, sentra.world and WestBridge Capital. PSIP is a terrific program at Princeton University that places students in high growth companies globally, across New York, Shanghai, Tel Aviv, and now Bengaluru. When I was at Princeton ('06), such a program did not exist, and it's wonderful to see new centers such as the CGI, endowed by Sumir Chadha of WestBridge Capital (Princeton ‘93), and the Keller Center making it possible for young undergrads at Princeton today to gain important global and startup experience.

It was great to see so many Princeton University alumni, students, family, faculty, and staff at PCI’s Annual Reception event last Friday! It was another great moment for PCI to be sending off Indian students to Princeton for Fall 2024. It was also a great opportunity to network with each other and to highlight the contributions of the Princeton community to the University and beyond. In case you missed the Reception, here’s a quick recap! On Friday at The Oberoi, we hosted: ????The Princeton Global India Summer Research Symposium, co-sponsored with CGI (Chadha Centre for Global India), kicked off with CGI Director Prof Anu Ramaswami sharing the vision and activities undertaken by CGI in India. ????PSIP students shared their experiences during their internship period this summer and the opportunities they saw in the Indian market. ????Akash Kapur (Author and Research Fellow) and Sashank Rishyasringa (co-founder of axio) sparked a stimulating conversation on Digital Public Infrastructure in India and how it has spurred growth in startups. It was thought-provoking and deeply insightful! ????Vinay Sitapati (Associate Dean and Professor of Law and Politics, Shiv Nadar University) engaged with us on his upcoming book “India Rules and the Indian Diaspora.” We hope to see his book on the racks soon! ????Fauzia Farooqi, Lecturer in South Asian Studies at Princeton University, presented her fascinating work on creating digital archives of traditions in India. ????Last but not least, Suman K.

In today's tech-driven era, the liberal arts often fall to the wayside. STEM majors take the spotlight in almost all aspects of life, from higher salaries to higher social capital. But technological progress - predominantly the advent of artificial intelligence - raises a list of moral and ethical dilemmas that can only be resolved through understanding human experiences, a mainstay of humanities education. Technologies do not exist in isolation; today more than ever, it is apparent that issues of consequence can be solved only with the intersection of technology and the humanities. Discover how the intersection of technology and the humanities shapes our world with Rishi Jaitly, Senior Advisor at OpenAI, and Dr. Robert Newman,?President of the National Humanities Center, in a conversation moderated by Supriya Nair. Join us for "Gentle Machines: The Case for the Humanities in an AI World"?at?7:30 PM?on the?11th of April?at Club Jolie's, Mumbai.?Register with the link below.
