I'm a digital archivist and entrepreneur from Bengaluru. For over 20 years I've worked in technology - and for most of that time I've been putting it to work for my mother tongue, Kannada. I've helped put 1.75 lakh+ books and manuscripts online, built research tools for 11th-century poetry, and documented theatre and folk art that might otherwise have vanished. My belief is simple: knowledge should be free, open, and available to everyone.
