Most of my professional work these days is with LVBL Accelerator, which I founded in 2023. Through this initiative, I have been exploring ways to accelerate the adoption of others work in sustainability across two broad themes that have a great impact on nature - lifestyles and buildings.

  • Fourth Wave Foundation helps communities become socially responsible and self-reliant.

  • Socratus Foundation enables collective wisdom to help communities tackle 'wicked' problems.

I work with a few elected representative and bureaucrats to improve state capacity for public administration. I also teach a graduate course on public problem-solving at the Kautilya School of Public Policy in Hyderabad. I've been thinking of writing a book about all this and have finally made a beginning!

Lithium, which I co-founded in 2014, pioneered Electric Vehicles-based transport in India and built the first big fleet of EVs.

I developed a template for community management of lakes in the city, which then spread to dozens of other lakes throughout Bangalore.

The Big10 and BigCircle bus routes which I proposed and designed at BMTC formed the first direction-oriented city bus network in India.

Previously, I founded the national public affairs magazine, India Together and the social technology lab, Mapunity.
