Starting with the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Tata Trusts will be launching a series of initiatives in India on exchange of big ideas. Ratan Tata, chairman of Tata Trusts, known for his passion for innovation, wants to get top global universities to ideate with Indian counterparts in fields as diverse as biosciences, material sciences and aerospace. In conversation with Jyoti Mukul,Ratan Tata and Gene Block, chancellor, UCLA, share the details of the first such global forum on sustainable energy. Edited excerpts:
In recent times, we have seen court directives on diesel vehicles, the Union government announcement to leap frog into Euro VI norms and the Delhi government's effort towards road rationing. Will such decisions force newer technology innovations and investment, especially by automobile firms?
Ratan Tata: One way of supporting economic growth in the country is by finding solutions on long-term energy. Using new technology and renewable materials to ensure sustainability in the years to come is a must for economic growth. That is the box we chose to be here today.
