About

An accomplished public-sector and startup ecosystem leader working at the intersection of technology, investments, policy, and execution. Currently serving in a senior leadership role at ELCOT (Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu Limited), I focus on investment promotion, facilitation, and ecosystem development for Tamil Nadu’s IT, digital infrastructure, AI, and emerging technology landscape. My work spans startup ecosystem building, strategic government-industry coordination, investor engagement, and market access enablement, with a strong focus on converting policy intent into on-ground outcomes. I have been actively involved in facilitating high-value investments, building cross-sector partnerships, and positioning Tamil Nadu as a leading destination for innovation, AI, and digital infrastructure. I also bring deep experience in international engagement and institutional collaboration, particularly in strengthening Japan–Tamil Nadu industry relationships, enabling strategic dialogues, and creating pathways for technology partnerships and investments. Alongside my government and ecosystem role, I am the Founder of ARTA Foundation, where I lead initiatives focused on transforming government schools and advancing sustainable education infrastructure through community-driven action. If you are looking to collaborate across innovation, investments, public policy, and social impact, I would be glad to connect and explore meaningful opportunities.
