Pranshu Poddar

YIF Class of 2021

B.E. Computer Science
Vellore Institute of Technology

Pranshu is an avid reader. An extremist by actions, he constantly finds himself on the border of being completely random yet with a semblance of the utmost balance and is always open and excited to discuss all things math, life, sustainability, existentialism, and equality.

Having previously worked in technology startups and bio-tech firms, he is extremely passionate about tech policy and ethics. Nutrition and self care are a crucial part of his lifestyle now, after converting to veganism for ethical reasons at the start of 2018, and has ever since been trying to adopt sustainability by monitoring and up-cycling his waste. He loves to travel and holds photography and coffee close. Solo backpacking with a tent and camera whenever he can find even a couple days off.

Pranshu is hoping to segue from pure tech to a sustainability research and policy analysis field, and hopes that the Young India Fellowship can enable him to breakthrough and explore further.
