Strategic Advisor to Concordia's Applied AI Institute

My platform India Rising is partnering with Concordia University's Applied AI Institute in Montréal as part of their Concordia–India AI Initiative. And I'm joining the Institute's Strategic Advisory Group alongside it.

The Initiative is led by Suchit Ahuja सुचित आहूजा, Co-Director of the Institute, and focused on commercializing applied AI research between Canada and India. My role is to bring the Indo-European corridor perspective where GCC build-outs, industrial pipelines, and partnerships already connect Indian ecosystems with European industry every day.

I've spent 15+ years working where corporate strategy decisions land as physical infrastructure across borders, and started India Rising to cover the Indo-European corridor. That lens is what I'll contribute here: helping connect the research side with the commercial ecosystem, and bridging the Canada–India discussion via Europe.

Looking forward to helping shape this, Suchit Ahuja and Alex Megelas.
