Proud to Judge TERI SAS Catalyst Challenge 2025

Honoured to Serve as a Final Round Judge at TERI – The Energy and Resources Institute SAS’s Catalyst Challenge 2025! 🌍✨

I am delighted to share that I have been invited as a Final Round Judge for The Catalyst Challenge, the flagship B-Plan competition of TERI School of Advanced Studies (TERI SAS) — an institution that stands at the forefront of sustainability, climate action, and responsible management education in India.

Tomorrow, the Top 5 teams will present their ideas built around sustainable innovation, environmental impact, and scalable business models.

I’m excited to witness the passion, creativity, and scientific thinking that young innovators bring to the table.

Why TERI SAS Matters

TERI SAS is one of India’s most respected institutions in sustainability and development studies.

What makes TERI SAS special is its integrative approach — blending science, policy, management, and technology to address real-world environmental challenges.

From climate research and renewable energy to sustainable supply chains, environmental policy, and green entrepreneurship, TERI SAS is shaping the leaders who will build a more sustainable, equitable future.

Why This Event Is Important

Entrepreneurship today must be purpose-driven, not just profit-driven.
The ideas that emerge from platforms like The Catalyst Challenge often spark early-stage solutions to:

* Reducing environmental footprints
* Solving resource inefficiencies
* Strengthening climate resilience
* Improving lives through sustainable innovation

It’s a privilege to evaluate these ambitious ideas and contribute in whatever small way I can to the ecosystem of responsible entrepreneurship.

Looking Forward

I’m excited to join fellow judges Dr. Irfan Rizvi
and Mr. Manish Mathur, and to engage with brilliant young minds committed to building meaningful, impactful ventures.

Thank you to the amazing team at TERI School of Advanced Studies and the Satat Prabandhan Management Club for the warm invitation and for creating such a thoughtful platform for budding changemakers.

See you tomorrow at the TERI SAS Campus! 🌱
Here’s to innovation that doesn’t just grow the economy — but grows the planet stronger.
