  • Annual Report 2007 | Reports & Filings | Investors
    Once upon a time, the world was spiky. Opportunities were unequal across countries, information was often walled and new economies were unheard of. But around the mid 990s, things started changing. Wealth began to spread, opening up fresh markets. A baby-boomer generation aged in developed countries while a Gen-Y exploded in emerging ones, rebalancing the workforce and propelling new economies. Technology became ubiquitous, connecting people and information. Together, these disruptive forces rearranged and leveled the global business-scape. Braving the waves of complex regulations and changing customer expectations, a new breed of entrepreneurs arrived to claim the unexplored land. They found a flat world. We live in exciting times.

  • Infosys Prize 2018
    Infosys Science Foundation INFOSYS PRIZE 2018 LEPIDOPTERA – WINGS WITH SCALES Those brilliant pigments that create magical colors on the wings of a butterfly is chemistry in play. That the pattern and tint are governed by its genes is what we learn from the field of genetics. And how can we separate nanoscience from this mystical being? The ‘nano’ chitin or tiny scales on the wings reflect light to create a mosaic of iridescent hues. When you see blue, purple, or white on a butterfly, that’s a structural color, while orange, yellow, and black are pigments. How overwhelming is this complexity! And how mystical the butterfly looks as it soars into the sky, its tiny scales aiding the flow of air – a marvel of aerodynamics! We divide this universe into parts – physics, biology, geology, astronomy, psychology and so on, but nature does not categorize. And so every small and big discovery by scientists and researchers from diverse fields come together to create a deeper understanding of our vast and interconnected universe. Oh yes, the powder that brushes off on your fingers when you touch a butterfly’s wings are the tiny scales breaking off, and that ‘slipperiness’ helps the butterfly escape the trap. But that touch may perhaps sadly contribute towards its demise. A caution therefore that we must tread carefully lest we hurt our world, for when we disturb one part of the universe, we may unknowingly create a butterfly effect.

    Our entangled world All life on earth is so beautifully meshed together that to consider humans apart from the rest would be quite impertinent. In fact, humans as a species can hardly survive without their fellow living beings. There are a zillion reasons to believe this, and science has regularly unearthed more — microorganisms in our gut aid digestion; pollinators help seed the food we eat; green plants and phytoplankton produce oxygen that we breathe. And then there are the forward and backward chains of dependencies that make all this possible. And we have not yet explored even a fraction of the intricate relationships we have with all the inhabitants of earth. Some researchers question the assumption that all life is equally valuable. The idea being that we can do without many life forms that are just taking up space. So the coral ecosystem is of great value to human beings but what does a parrot fish do for us? Oh and those sordid roaches and dispensable rodents! A delightful ditty sums up this reservation, God in his wisdom Made the fly And then forgot To tell us, why? - Ogden Nash Is biodiversity indeed an indulgence? Is bringing visible advantage to us human beings the sole purpose of existence? Or are there finer equations we are missing? Michael Soule, the remarkable biologist held that ‘nature has intrinsic value beyond what it can afford humans.’ Researchers have discovered so many unique and fragile ecosystems of the world that hinge on a cautious chemistry between species. If one goes extinct, ripples will be felt across the environment.

ISBN 0-19-505072-x Consider the classic Liar sentence: "This sentence is false." It claims that it is false. So if we assume that a sentence is true if and only if what it claims is the case, then the Liar is true if and only if it is false. People have thought about this paradox for centuries. Despite this, there is no single standard "solution." An attempted resolution of the paradox would tell us which of our intuitions are sound and which need further clarification. It would point out where and why our naive reasoning leads us to a contradiction. Modern logic applies mathematical methods to the modeling and study of truth, proof, computation, and infinity. The paradoxes of semantics and set theory were important in the development of the field. The reason for working on the paradoxes of any field is not only to secure a foundation. The deeper reason is that by introducing, discarding, and clarifying the concepts that lead to paradox we are lead to the central ideas and questions of the field. We see from The Liar that the paradoxes are still a source of inspiration in logic. The book is a new, exciting contribution to the study of truth.

  • Sustainability Report 2018-19 to Be a Live Enterprise
    LIVE ENTERPRISE Sustainability Report 2018-19 To be a Live Enterprise The idea of an enterprise likened to a living, breathing organism has been explored for several decades. After all, businesses, like living creatures, are driven by the need to survive, grow and flourish. Not unlike natural selection that fuels the ‘adapt to survive’ response in species, market changes can either drive organizations to navigate to their next innovation, their next advantage, their next business model or to extinction. Today, enterprises are advancing on their digital transformation journey to adapt to rapidly changing markets, business needs and consumer preferences. We help our clients transform their organization to become a Live Enterprise by reimagining the enterprise in a way that strengthens its digital capabilities, progresses its operating model for the digital era and transforms its talent holistically. And we do this through our people and the ecosystems we create for them to learn, innovate and thrive. A ‘Live Enterprise’ is a responsible enterprise. One that continues to earn the respect of its stakeholders – listening, learning and contributing to the overall well-being of the community, leading to a positive impact on the socio-economic landscape of the larger society. Be it in providing access to healthcare and education or influencing the way communities can become self-sustaining, a live enterprise seizes every means of being sustainable and shows the way to others. Global warming and the dire threats to the planet and life on the planet call for immediate and effective action. Working towards understanding and mitigating the impact of its business and stakeholders on the larger environment through abstemious use of scarce natural resources, a live organization knows how to respond to the crisis at hand.
