Omidya Network's 2016 Vertical on Digital Identity
Omidya Network India is a philanthropic organization which does boast for profit and nonprofit investing. I was helping build out this vertical digital identity, which means that we funded a lot of nonprofits who are working on these questions. But you're also looking at companies which are working in the privacy tech space, which are helping make Indians more capable of controlling their data privacy. We funded something called the State of Adhar report, which is the largest survey on digital identity anywhere in the globe. It's now becoming far more integral part of an Indian's everyday lives. For me to find myself in the right place at the right time was amazing.
