INCUBATING IDEALS

INDIA HAS SEEN a quiet revolution in semiconductors in the past five to 10 years. The country is now emerging as a hub for design, development and deep-tech innovation—a shift that is not accidental, but the result of visionary policies and the support of the Union and state governments.

Karnataka became a pioneer by launching the ₹92.5 crore Karnataka Semiconductor Venture Capital Fund (KARSEMVEN Fund) in 1999. It laid the foundation for initiatives like SUFFL—the Semiconductor Fabless Accelerator Lab—further strengthening India’s fabless chip design ecosystem.

Elgin, Ephesus and Erdogan

Lord Elgin was wrong. Not the eighth earl whom we know as a viceroy of India, but his more famous father, the seventh who had carted away the Parthenon Marbles from Athens during 1802-1812. Elgin feared the Ottoman Turks, who had occupied Greece, might vandalise them.
