Скачать или смотреть Sanjeev Sanyal On Why India Has No Big 4, Regulating AI & Ending Population Control

The global strategy consulting market stands at $39.5 billion, with Asia commanding $9.1 billion. India contributes just $1.09 billion. This is despite having the talent; Indians run global back-offices for McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Deloitte, and other consultancies. Yet, India continues to outsource strategy to the Big 4.

Sanjeev Sanyal, PM Modi’s Economic Advisor joins us to break this down.
We discuss the factors helping and hindering India’s growth opportunities. Sanjeev has long worked on improving the process reforms with the belief that this country needs small reforms that will bring huge impact.

We also discuss AI, with a policymaker who strongly believes unregulated AI will be catastrophic. Sanjeev shares his opinions on what could be the government’s approach to regulation, with acceptance of the limited predictability of the future with AI.

If you want to understand India from a policymaker’s eye this episode is for you.
