Overview

Gurukul, an Educational Series under India–United States Defense Acceleration Ecosystem (INDUS-X), is a cornerstone of this innovation partnership, where industry (Indian/U.S.-based Primes), governments, and startups come together.

The Gurukul Educational Series is inspired by the ancient Indian Tradition of propagating education through learning via experience and discussions led by enlightened teachers and curious students. Through this series, we invite the visionaries of India and the U.S. for ‘semi-formal’ discussions with startups, students, innovators, and anyone willing and curious to learn more to develop deeper people-to-people ties.
