People by WTF Nikhil Kamath x Nandan Nilekani | People by WTF | Ep #3
India today is a different India, when compared to 10 years ago. A lot of it has to do with The India Stack Journey (a set of open API's & digital public goods). Interesting to note how opportunity to serve at population scale is the theme of these innovations.
In this episode of People by WTF, we sat with Nandan Nilekani to understand the trajectory of building this advanced Digital Public Infrastructure in India, which has made a significant impact in each of our day to day lives.
