ExecutiveRoundtable.org, Chairman’s Highlights! We catch up with Namita Jindal, Chief Information Officer at CentralSquare Technologies, a leader in public sector software solutions. Namita has been instrumental in driving innovation and operational excellence at CentralSquare, leveraging her extensive experience in business strategy and technology. Here, she shares her insights on the business climate for the rest of 2025 and the key factors influencing the industry. Namita: "At CentralSquare, we are deeply committed to enhancing the digital presence and operational efficiency of public sector agencies. Our mission-critical software solutions, ranging from Computer-aided Dispatch and Next-Generation 911 to Finance, Asset Management, and Permitting, are designed to help public agencies and their communities flourish in new ways The public sector is increasingly recognizing the value of digital transformation, and we are well-positioned to support this shift with our comprehensive suite of solutions. What excites me the most is the potential for innovation in areas such as artificial intelligence and data analytics. Our Generative AI initiatives are already showing promising results in improving our customer experience while we continue to innovate. We are investing heavily in cybersecurity and compliance to address the unique challenges of the public sector, including privacy concerns related to GAI. Ensuring that we have the right talent and resources to drive this innovation is essential. The shifting landscape of talent and staffing, especially with the rise of hybrid work, requires us to be agile and adaptive. Artificial intelligence versus human intelligence is another area of interest. While AI can significantly enhance our capabilities, it is crucial to strike a balance and ensure that human expertise remains at the core of our operations. We are committed to fostering a collaborative environment where AI and human intelligence complement each other to deliver the best outcomes for our customers. At CentralSquare, we believe in giving back to the community. Our social responsibility initiatives include volunteerism and charitable donations, and we strive to create a diverse and inclusive workplace. Personally, I am passionate about driving transformation and innovation, and I am proud to be part of a company that is making a real difference in the public sector." Namita's leadership and vision continue to drive CentralSquare's success, making it a pivotal player in the public sector software industry. Her dedication to innovation, operational excellence, and community engagement sets a high standard for the industry.

Programs like the Unisys Innovation Program (UIP) reflect how we nurture emerging talent and fresh thinking where it’s needed most — on real-world challenges. Wrapping up its 16th year, UIP brings together thousands of engineering students across India to explore ideas at the edge of innovation. This year’s winning projects applied AI, machine learning and quantum technologies to improve lives across healthcare, mobility and human-centered technology. Congratulations to the winning teams — and sincere thanks to the Unisys mentors, associates and university partners helping define what’s next in innovation. http://spr.ly/60464JqA2

India’s green transition is entering a decisive phase, where sustainability moves from ambition to execution and leadership, talent, and technology will shape long-term outcomes. Women leaders are playing an increasingly central role in this shift, helping redefine how inclusive and resilient growth is built.   In my latest article for BW Sustainability World, I reflect on how workforce participation in the green economy is evolving and what this could mean as we approach 2026. I discuss the role of enterprise action, skilling pathways and technology in building a transition that is both sustainable and scalable.   At Persistent Systems, we see sustainability and inclusion as deeply interconnected. By embedding ESG into our business strategy, investing in future-ready skilling, and leveraging digital and AI-led insights, we aim to help build ecosystems where diverse talent can lead, innovate, and create long-term value for both business and society. Through the Persistent Foundation, we further extend this commitment by supporting education, skilling and community-led initiatives that strengthen inclusive and sustainable growth.   Read the complete article here: https://lnkd.in/g6tvwhfy   #ESG #Sustainability #GreenEconomy #ReAImaginingTheWorld

Sustainable agriculture promotes ecosystem services, conserves resources, and supports biodiversity. Practices like organic farming, crop rotation to enhance soil health, conservation of water, and reduced chemical usage are encouraged. This approach is the core essence of the "Rejuvenating Chambal-Yamuna Project" anchored by Genpact and WWF-India. This engagement aims to promote a sustainable future for both, the environment and human well-being.

We had a special guest come visit us when we met to discuss our #AI goals for 2026 in GBS Pune last Friday. Gaurav Tripathi, co-founder of Partex.ai shared his and his company's journey in data and AI over the last 10 years. It was wonderful to understand the massive amounts of data that they are processing for drug companies to shorten the time to market. Gaurav, the insights that you provided will help HOERBIGER build custom models for predicting valve failures in the field using our engineering and service data. Thank you! Key takeaways from your session for us were: Build your own models and knowledge tree. "Your data is your moat" Invest in Compute Reaching an outcome can be cheaper than you think. #FederatedLearning is the solution that can take care of Data Protection laws.
