    In this episode of The Corridor, I sit down with Ashvin Nagarajan (Ash), co-founder of TableIQ and my partner in leading the AI Club at HBS, to kick off a new series: The Future of Roles.

    E5: Why India’s AI Moment Is Just Beginning | Pratik Agarwal (Accel)

    India’s AI ecosystem is entering a defining decade. In this episode of The Corridor, I sit down with Pratik Agarwal, Partner at Accel, to discuss why he believes India’s biggest technology and VC opportunity is still ahead of us. Pratik reflects on his journey from IIT Delhi and Harvard Business School to Airbnb’s early growth years and over a decade investing in startups across India. We explore India building for the world, an agent-led consumer world, and the kinds of companies that could define the next decade. We also discuss whether AI will fragment markets or create larger technology monopolies, where India can capture value in the AI stack, the missing middle in startup capital, and the rise of polymaths.

    E4: Will AI Kill India's IT Industry? | Adit Jain (Leena AI)

    In this episode of The Corridor, I sit down with Adit Jain, Co-Founder and CEO of Leena AI, to unpack one of the biggest questions facing India’s economy: will AI disrupt the IT services industry that helped power the country’s rise? Adit traces his journey from IIT Delhi to YC and building Leena AI into a fast-growing agentic IT enterprise. We talk about why India’s traditional IT arbitrage model is under pressure, how AI agents are changing the economics of back-office work, and what this means for IT services firms, GCCs, and millions of knowledge workers. We also explore the deeper questions beneath the disruption: Why doesn’t India retain more top engineering talent in research? What role should government play? What happens to workers whose jobs are automated? And if the old model is breaking, what could replace it?
