Join us for a talk by Narayana Murthy, co-founder and chairman emeritus
of Infosys Technologies. Murthy is celebrated for his visionary
leadership in shaping Infosys and India’s emergence as a major player in
the world’s information technology sector. He brings a wealth of
knowledge and experience, having steered Infosys since its inception in
1981 until his retirement in 2011.

In this public lecture, Murthy will discuss the intersection of
effective public governance and entrepreneurship as key drivers of
development. His theme, “Creating and Fostering a Culture of Innovation
in Companies to Enhance National Prosperity,” will draw on Infosys as a
case study to illustrate how fostering innovation can benefit
organizations and the prosperity of nations.

The Indian economy stands at a critical juncture. With advanced
economies experiencing a slowdown, India has emerged as an economy with
many possibilities. However, the nation faces its own set of challenges.
The rapid integration of new digital technologies is reshaping the
economic landscape and transforming the nature of work, while societal
divisions are becoming more pronounced. In this pivotal moment, India’s
decisions will be significant in terms of economic, political, and
social aspects.

The talk is for all those interested in a deeper understanding of
India’s developmental journey through the eyes of an IT industry pioneer
to participate.

This lecture is a part of the INDIA Conference 2023: India’s Economy in a
Changing Global Landscape, which will bring several distinguished
economists, policymakers, and corporate leaders to Cornell’s campus to
delve into the state of India’s economy and the challenges ahead.
