Our guest today is on the incredible mission of changing the way buildings are designed, built and lived in, in India, using data and communications as the foundations for advancing green building. Circular thinking, in his words, is the key for a future-ready India.

Meet the remarkable Sriram Kuchimanchi, founder and CEO of Smarter Dharma which is building the world’s first Sustainability Resource Planning Platform (www.sdplus.io) and which has become an impactful force in influencing key players in building environmental, social and institutional sustainability today. An Ashoka Fellow and TEDx Speaker, Sriram gave up his corporate tech job in the US 13 years ago to move back to India and work at the confluence of technology and sustainability, assisting communities, companies, and government agencies understand, embrace and practice sustainability.
