Being born in the financial capital of India, Mumbai, and being raised by entrepreneurs has fundamentally shaped the trajectory of my intellectual interests. Early on, I saw that decisions have to be made pragmatically, to account for all possibilities and creatively, to adapt to unknown unknowns. I think this is the core of my motivation for studying Innovation, Strategy and Organisation : to help inform decisions of real businesses across a range of sectors, to glean broad insights so that diverse companies can better tackle the seismic shifts technological evolution brings. I aspire to contribute more perceptively to the conversation that I have been part of ever since I was a child. I aim to understand how businesses can scale effectively to leverage the capacity of distinctive companies that want to make a dent in the world. Studying PPE (BSc) has given me an interdisciplinary toolbox, supplemented by my experiences in working in the Indian parliament, a national industry body, a research database on governance mechanisms in institutions and at a venture capital fund. I am eager deploy both my theoretical and heuristic experiences in my future work.
