INTRODUCTION TO 5THIRTA THEMES
The Central Quest
ACCOMPLISHING 5THIRTA (STABILITY)
through Re-Invigorating India’s Intellectual Knowledge Traditions
Can India offer its Civilizational Wisdom & Intellectual Traditions
to steer through the contemporary material advances to lead the world towards a stable epoch of lasting peace & prosperity?
Can the characteristic Indian thought on the philosophical foundations of
Human Existence, Social Order, Education, Economy, Polity, Governance, Administration, Management, Environment, Development come to an aide?
Can the Indian techno-managerial paradigms concerning
Food, Healthcare, Water, Waste, Sanitation, Housing, Defence, Security, Energy, Space, Transport etc.
present an additional leeway to the ongoing discourse?
2:00 – 2:15
STRIKING STAKEHOLDER STABILITY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GIVING WAY TO THE 5TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
The quintessential quest of the proposed 5th Industrial Revolution is to ensure the accomplishment of lasting 5THIRTA (stability).
This 5THIRTA (stability) can only arise when the entire milieu of stakeholders are made an integral part of the developmental projects.
The convergence of government agencies, businesses, civil society organizations and academic institutions to
plan, design and administer these projects can go a long way in ensuring lasting 5THIRTA.
The decentralization of the developmental narrative can ensure its sustainability across parameters.
How can this stakeholder stability for sustainable development be accentuated?

2:15 – 2:30
TRAVERSING TOURISM AS A TORCHBEARER OF 5THIRTA
Cultural Differences accruing from Civilizational Foundations has been one of the biggest causes which has evaded 5THIRTA (stability).
Tourism facilitates a cross-cultural conversation in the spirit of camaraderie and thereby constitutes a key constituent of the 5th Industrial Revolution
by converging the local conventions with that of the Global Aspirations.
Extending respect to the indigenous communities and bolstering their eclectic ways of life can at best be accentuated by the instrument of Tourism.
In what all ways and with which all means shall the tourism establishments orchestrate this?

2:30 – 3:00
EXPLORING THE ENTERPRISE MIX FOR ACCENTUATING 5TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Economic Disparity has been one of the key reasons of social conflict.
With the advent of transformational power of technology this disparity can be disrupted provided there is a deterministic view about the plausible enterprise mix.
How shall the sovereign nation states devise a wise mix of Big Enterprises with that of Medium, Small & Micro Ones?
Shall it be a new economic mix of free markets & state control based on the inordinate amount of Big Data available for analysis?
***
3:00 – 3:15
ENUMERATING AN ALL ENCOMPASSING EDUCATION CONNECT FOR BOLSTERING THE 5TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
The 5THIRTA (stability) of any Economic Growth is largely dependent on the aspirations, competence & value systems of the Human Resources driving the same.
India’s vast demographic pool of youngsters present a unique opportunity whereby a multi-layered giant economic base can be curated.
This can happen only when the entire educational ecosystem works in tandem and creates a nation wide symphony.
R&D Institutions championing the futuristic frontiers of growth & innovation instigating & inspiring the entire deck of Higher Education Institutions
which in turn taking the onus of hand holding the K-12 Schools in their zone of influence can orchestrate the aforesaid eduCONNECT.
How can such synergies be institutionalized making way for socially relevant enterprises powered by innovation & research?
***
3:15 – 3:30
BALANCING THE TRIAD OF TECHNOLOGY-FINANCE-REGULATION FOR LASTING 5THIRTA
The disruptive power of technology has presented mind-boggling use cases for the betterment of humanity at large.
However, that shall depend entirely as to how technological adoption/deployment is financed and regulated?
Shall it follow a Centralized Command & Control Regime or Shall it pursue the contours of a more decentralized & democratized framework?
What factors shall determine this?
***
3:30 – 3:45
PROPOSING A SEAMLESS ECOSYSTEM OF
PREVENTIVE HEALTHCARE & INTEGRATED HEALING FOR 5THIRTA
Being Healthy has been one of the cornerstones of Indian thought whereby remaining healthy has had been celebrated as a virtue.
Can modern healthcare systems be designed with this philosophical precept in consideration whereby the
emphasis is on keeping health people healthy instead of devising it from a more consumption driven perspective?

3:45 – 4:15
