🗓️ On 4 August 2026, I had the great pleasure of addressing more than 250 BCA and MCA students at Shrimati Indira Gandhi College, Tiruchirappalli - 620 002., on the topic: “𝗔𝗜 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟯𝟬: 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗜 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹”

What made this visit especially meaningful was its personal connection. The college stands directly opposite the institution where I studied for seven years, until 2000. Although I passed its gates countless times, I never had the opportunity to visit, until now.

It was a joy to return to this familiar place and share my journey from a college student to a Data and AI leader, along with lessons gained from over two decades of industry experience.

The students’ enthusiasm for Artificial Intelligence and other emerging technologies was truly inspiring. Their hashtag#thoughtful questions, hashtag#curiosity and hashtag#active participation made the session highly hashtag#interactive and hashtag#memorable.

“𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴; 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀.”

Capturing a photograph there was much more than preserving a memory. It was a moment of reflection, connecting Gandhiji’s timeless legacy and belief in education with our responsibility to inspire and prepare the innovators of tomorrow.

My heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Rethinavalli Sowrirajan, 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳. 𝗩𝗶𝗷𝗶 and all the faculty members for their exceptional hospitality and warm welcome. This experience will always remain close to my heart. https://lnkd.in/egKSMTTN
