		<description><![CDATA[<p><span>The India Center's <strong>Annual India Lecture Series</strong> presents a special talk with <strong>Kanwal Rekhi</strong></span><span></span><span>, the first Indian-American founder to take a company public on the NASDAQ and author of </span><em>The Groundbreaker</em><span>. Co-founder of Excelan and past president of TiE, he has mentored more than </span><span>10,000 entrepreneurs</span><span> and invested in over </span><span>200 early-stage companies</span><span>. In this talk, Rekhi explores why artificial intelligence is poised to set off the widest wave of new venture creation in a generation &mdash; lowering the cost of building, widening who gets to build, and rewriting the path from idea to company.</span></p>
