The last 3 days at the India AI Impact Summit have been super interesting 🙌🏻

Walking around Bharat Mandapam, thought leaders at every step of the venue, with India taking centre stage in building AI has been quite an experience!

What stood out most to me were the intersectoral and multi-layered panels.

Honored to interact with some incredible leaders including Dr. Sampath Kumar, IAS, Development Commissioner and Principal Secretary, Govt. of Meghalaya; Christopher Ford, Head of Government & Public Affairs, EMEA, ANZ, Infosys; Kanupriya Misra, Education Specialist, The World Bank; 

Top 3 insights I’m taking from the summit-

📌 Human skills & unique human capabilities are becoming more relevant than ever! 🙌🏻

📌  As AI continues to evolve, the quality of our questions matter, just as much as the sophistication of our technology.

📌 We must continue to work on, question and enhance how AI can help in building a more inclusive, intentional, sustainable space for all.

One of the most valuable panels was by UN Foundation & Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) on “AI for the Next Billion”, a conversation featuring 
Mr Arunabha Ghosh, CEEW, Mr Amitabh Kant, ex-G20 Sherpa, Govt. Of India, Ms Claire Melamed, VP- AI and Digital Cooperation, UN Foundation and other incredible leaders!

The best part- The networking & conversations at the best places- Lunch lines, entry gates, at the beverage booth, inside the hall :)

Also met some creator friends and caught up with so many familiar faces!

Will definitely post a part 2 of the summit aswell!

I can’t keep calm- So grateful to share that my 4th TEDx talk is out now! 🙌🏻

I’ve often said this- From being an introvert to being on stages has been a massive jump, one that was deeply outside my comfort zone for many years.

But, now when I look back on that journey, each of these experiences have been a reminder of the power of conversations, of sharing your voice, and of stepping outside that comfort zone one step at a time.

In my 4th TEDx talk, I talked about the dilemma between trusting the process and building it, or maybe finding the right balance between them!

Check it out from the link in the comments, I hope it leaves you with food for thought!

Thank you to the TEDxSIUHinjewadi, Pune team for having me :)

Still thinking about the energy in the room,

at our Climate x Women event under Delhi Climate Innovation Week’26! 🙌🏻

Recently, we had the pleasure to organise an empowering event on the intersectional theme of climate and women.

And what unfolded was a room full of curiosity, urgency and hope!

From powerful stories, to reflections that stayed with me, it was wonderful to see young people, changemakers & incredible minds come together to explore why climate change and gender equality must go hand in hand.

One thing became clear during the conversation: Climate solutions cannot succeed if women’s voices remain at the margins of decision-making.

Thank you to all the partners, our speaker & the wonderful audience for making the conversation so engaging!

Always a pleasure to meet thought leaders across industries!:)

Lovely to meet the ever so radiant & multifaceted Sahiba Bali, at the recent AI Impact summit- Always inspired by her work!

Also a pleasure to interact with and learn from Kanika Sinha, Convener, ComMutiny, The Youth Collective. 

Hearing more about her journey, the impact and her work with young people was truly wonderful.

And what a pleasure to meet Dr. Bhavani Rao R Ma’am, Dean of the Amrita School of Social and Behavioural Sciences and Unesco Chair on Gender Equality and Women Empowerment!

With fun questions, impactful stories and a conversation on upcoming & current initiatives and synergies, the conversation definitely left me with ideas and a lot of hope!✨

Wonderful to interact with such incredible minds and hoping to implement the learnings from these chats :)

At the recent AI Impact summit, I had the absolute honor to meet Kris Gopalakrishnan Sir, one of the co- founders of Infosys!

Deeply grateful for his warmth, and encouraging presence. 

As AI continues to reshape industries, it’s powerful to witness leaders who have not only build the tremendous past of Indian tech but are actively shaping the future with their leadership.

For most brands, "moment marketing" is just a box to tick, a social post, a generic greeting, and then back to business. 

But today, I saw a brand that actually got it right.

I found this small card from Urban Company inside my Zepto order this morning.

No slogans or celebrities, just a single, unexpected line:

"You don’t have to be strong and independent every single day"

It made me pause.

Most Women’s Day campaigns follow the same script: Strong. Independent. Superwoman. While they are empowering,  they also reinforce the pressure to “do it all.”

Urban Company chose a different approach. By quietly acknowledging that rest isn't a weakness, they tied the occasion seamlessly to their brand promise: liberty to relax while they take care of your beauty and wellness needs

The lesson here is simple: moment marketing isn’t about seeking attention. 

It’s about creating an experience that genuinely aligns with your brand’s purpose and the user’s reality. 

That’s how loyalty is built. 💯

Absolute pleasure to be at the World Sustainable Development Summit 2026 recently! 🙌🏻

With conversations unfolding in every room and across every corner, it was wonderful to engage with thought leaders, policymakers, and changemakers shaping the future of sustainability!

An honor to have an inspiring exchange with Ms Luísa Salgueiro, Mayor, Municipality of Matosinhos, Portugal, and discuss more about the aim to achieve climate neutrality by 2030!

I also had the opportunity to dive into a thoughtful conversation with Ms Supriya Sahu, Additional Chief Secretary to the Government, Department of Environment, Climate Change and Forests on her impactful work and the potential synergies ahead.

Equally enriching was a wholesome interaction with Ms Nameeta Prasad, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government of India.

And a truly insightful exchange with Ms Ita Kettleborough, Director, Energy Transitions Commission aswell!

A pleasure to witness the Silver Jubilee edition of the Summit, the only independently convened international platform on sustainable development based in the Global South.

One key takeaway from the conversations was the reinforcement of how important it is for sustainability to be tailored to local contexts along with a global approach!
