Mr. Nangru shared his thoughts on the complex and ambiguous matrix of enabling skills and industry oriented training with Higher Education. He provided two part solution of ‘Embedding Industry Early and Often‘ and ‘Adaptive Curricula‘ in our education ecosystem for developing entrepreneurial and skill-based mind-set in young learners.

As part of the panel discussion on Future of Higher Education in the Digital-First Economy Mr. Sorabh Bajaj, Vice-President, Business Excellence, Sunstone shared his thoughts and said, “The technological developments over the past few years have positively transformed the Higher-Education space. We can expect further integration of technology in administration, student experience, and prediction based AI learning as we move towards Digital first economy. However, online learning is yet to find a substitute for physical networking, learning, and experiences. Beyond classroom, students inculcate several soft skills and life skills and it also gives students the opportunity to connect and form a network. We believe Higher-Education will blend the benefits of technology while retaining the elements of physical education.”
