The world is changing faster than any playbook can keep up with. The only edge that doesn't expire is curiosity.
Speaking to over a 150 young next gen leaders and upcoming entrepreneurs at RIE IGNITE 2026 along side a diverse group including @bomanirani, Kishore Biyani, Anamika Khanna, Mira Kapoor, Pinky Reddy, Farah Ali Khan, @poojadhingraa, Aditya Burman, @anantgoenka, and Ravi Machani among others, was a reminder of how much conviction already exists in this generation.
On the panel with @pmariwala and @avnish, moderated by Siddharth Mehta, the conversation went into the honest, uncomfortable, generative territory of what capital, courage, and clarity actually look like when building India's next chapter. Value creation itself needs to be reinvented. The ways of seeing the world need to be relearned, constantly. The inheritance isn't the asset, the hunger is.

In the 3 weeks since the IndiaAI Summit, @177pc and I have met 43 founding teams.
Deeply technical, most in their mid-late 20s, and building for India or with a strong India-edge.
Some common themes we saw and like:
- AI-led IT Services: What does the Palantir for India look like? Reimagining Infosys/TCS/Wipro AI-first.
- Compute for India: As enterprise demand ramps up, the country needs more sovereign inference and infra capabilities.
- AI for the "real world": Purpose-built models for material sciences, biotech, manufacturing, security & defence.
- Healthcare AI: Both India's AI doctors and AI agents that transform primary care.
- Physical AI: More than just the end robots, can India provide the data infrastructure for the world? (Scale AI for robotics)
- Voice AI: Everything from foundational research to vertical agents to full stack solutions in what will probably be the largest Voice AI market globally.
Indian AI startups will look different and have their own lane. We’re just starting to see the first signs.

Catch a few glimpses from the spectacular day that was. In the presence of dignitaries, Krea leadership, mentors, friends and families, 400 brand new leaders stepped into the world as Krea graduates. Congratulations cohorts of 2025!

Can’t believe that within hours of each other, two of the greatest alumni of my alma mater @ICTMumbai1933 left for their heavenly abode
Keki Gharda (95) and Kishore Mariwala (90) were so so special
What was common between them?
First, both were successful businessmen, but both were involved in doing good itself as a business.

Second, both believed in compassionate capitalism - they gave much more than they took.
Third, both helped their alma mater @ICTMumbai1933 no end by donating crores in building centres of excellence
Fourth, both were very very dear personal friends for decades…
We will miss them so much.
May their soul find the comfort of eternal peace, and may their legacy live on in all the lives they've touched 🙏🙏🙏

On Gandhi Jayanti, am reposting an interview which recommends five of my favourite books on Gandhi, dealing variously with his politics, his faith, his personal idiosyncrasies and his family life:

As India approaches 2 years since its first lockdown, I analyse the inherent issues in the India state. Citizen welfare and rights must be at the heart of its actions, not its centralising tendencies

Spent the last couple of hours listening to an enthralling talk on the Indian economy by Arvind Subramanian. It was richly researched (he should put up all the charts online) and expertly presented. The discussion that followed was most interesting too:
