In this episode, Jerry and Jody talk with Kabir Kumar, a Director at Flourish Ventures, an investment fund with a focus on promoting financial inclusion, domestically and internationally, exploring the empowerment that he believes can be achieved by giving individuals greater access to and control over the uses of their personal data. We discuss the policies that he and his colleagues are advocating with the U.S. Senate Banking Committee for enhanced privacy and data control rights, the vacuum created by the lack of U.S. leadership in data regulation, and how India – a leading IT and software provider to U.S. companies – may help shape policy in this area. We also talk about the prospects for reaching an international accord on data use and protection of individual rights.
