Can cities fix the jobs shortage? Sridhar Krishna on the OoruLabs podcast

Watch Sridhar Krishna, Senior Scholar at the Takshashila Institution speak to Sathya Sankaran on the OoruLabs Podcast.

“18 million people turn 18 each year in India and we have over a 100 million people surplus in agriculture. Unless we create 20 million new jobs each year, India’s dream of a demographic dividend could easily turn into a nightmare! This is the title of the 20 million jobs project that Sridhar Krishna has been driving. He is a Senior Scholar at the Takshashila Institution and leads the 20 Million Jobs project. He graduated from BITS, Pilani and has an MBA from SP Jain, Mumbai. He works with startups helping them scale and with a civil society organisation on judicial reform. Till recently, he was a Managing Director at Accenture where he worked on analytics and AI.”
