The energy system is not about supply and exports and generation and distribution. It's about how we use energy in our daily lives and workplaces. The so-called energy trilemma, affordability versus reliability versus environmental performance looks very theoretical in the boardrooms of an NGO or a consulting company. But it's not theoretical at all for someone struggling to run their life, do their job and pay their bills. What we need is a system focused on usage, not on supply. Joining Michael on Cleaning Up this week is Harish Hande, a Bangalore-based social entrepreneur, co-founder and CEO of the Selco Foundation, which focuses on decentralized solar energy solutions for underserved communities. A graduate of IIT Kharagpur with a master's and PhD in energy engineering from the University of Massachusetts, Harish has over three decades of grassroots experience using sustainable energy to drive poverty reduction in rural India. In 2011, he received the Ramon Magsaysay Award for his efforts to make solar power accessible and affordable for the poor through innovative, livelihood‑linked energy services. Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle. The members are Actis, Alcazar Energy, Arup, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, Cygnum Capital, Davidson Kempner, Ecopragma Capital, EDP, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, Schneider Electric, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

Email: The Most Underrated Marketing ChannelIn this clip, Harish Sarma, VP, Business Development & Partnerships at Yahoo, highlights why email remains one of the most powerful, yet overlooked, channels.While email often sits quietly in the background, it's actually one of the most personal and high-impact touchpoints in a user's life

Rethinking Email: One Platform, Many WorldsIn this clip, Harish Sarma, VP, Business Development & Partnerships at Yahoo, shares a powerful vision for the future of email.Instead of siloed experiences, the goal is interoperability, building technology that works seamlessly across platforms like Gmail and Outlook.

Harish Vasudevan deconstructs the complexity of digital marketing, arguing that it is simply "direct marketing on steroids". By focusing on the "Holy Grail" of one-on-one communication and simplifying the customer journey to its basic essence, businesses can stop wasting money on flashy tools.The key is to balance data with human instinct, avoiding the "last-click" trap that ignores the long road a consumer travels before buying.Many marketers are "driving into lakes" by following data blindly. Harish Vasudevan provides a refreshing perspective on metrics, urging non-marketers to start with questions rather than spreadsheets. From the enduring power of email (the "roach" of marketing) to the new "black boxes" of AI search, this conversation is a guide to navigating the digital arc without losing your business intuition.Jagged with Jasravee is facilitated by Jasravee Kaur Chandra. Jasravee has over 25 years experience as a Strategic Brand Builder, Communications Leader and Entrepreneur.

What if the real fix for rising anxiety isn't more hustle, but more human connection? We sit down with eminent psychiatrist Dr. Harish Shetty to map the sweeping changes in Indian mental health; from moving care back into families to building true multidisciplinary teams, and the stubborn gaps that still block access in elite hospitals and workplaces. The throughline is urgent and hopeful: disconnection is making us sick, and practical reconnection can help us heal.Across a lively, story-rich episode, we discuss how legal reforms like the Mental Health Act and the decriminalization of suicide reshaped rights, why stigma still persists in places, and how support groups quietly outperform expectations with fewer relapses and stronger daily functioning. Dr. Shetty makes a compelling case for people-first care: psychiatrists, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational and speech therapists, and social workers working as equals, meeting patients where they live, not just where we bill.We also explore culture and tech with clear eyes. Films can teach at scale, while social media can either prey on loneliness or act as the science journal of the common person, carrying weekly, stigma-busting posts from all of us. AI chatbots may soothe in the short term but can't replace intimacy or safety, especially for those in crisis. Instead, Dr. Shetty outlines a layered ecosystem, from befrienders and ambassadors to therapists and psychiatrists-that scales human contact. Along the way, we blend Western therapies with yoga, Vipassana, and local rituals learned in disaster zones, showing how cultural competence builds trust and lasting change.Stay to the end for a simple 'mental first aid box' you can build today - safe friends, a good book, honest venting, long walks, and elemental rituals that reset the nervous system.

Harish Bhat spent 38 years with the Tata Group, working across businesses that reach millions of Indians every day, including Titan, Tanishq, and Tata Tea.He joins Neon Show for a 3rd time and reflects on what it meant to build inside a 150+ year-old institution. The conversation begins in 1991, the year Ratan Tata took over as Chairman, a role he would hold for 21 years. Harish explains how Ratan Tata prepared Tata Sons at a time when the Indian economy was opening up and competition was changing rapidly.We discuss landmark moments in the group's history, including the Tetley acquisition in 2000, the first time an Indian company acquired a major global consumer brand. Harish shares how this decision transformed not only the Tata Group's mindset but also the way ambitious Indian businesses think about their potential.Harish speaks about Ratan Tata not as a distant icon, but as a leader he worked closely with. He shares stories of how decisions were made, how conflicts were handled, and why dignity, compassion, and keeping one's word were always non-negotiable for Ratan Tata.The conversation also draws from his book Doing the Right Thing, where he transfers these experiences into practical lessons on leadership shaped over decades.https://www.amazon.in/Doing-Right-Thing-Bestselling-Tatastories/dp/014347985700:00 — Trailer01:07 — Paying tribute to Mr. Ratan Tata05:53 — The Tata family legacy06:53 — Early childhood and education of Ratan Tata07:48 — The decision to return to India08:44 — How Ratan Tata prepared the Group for a liberalised economy14:35 — How Tata Sons became a global business16:45 — The $450 million Tetley acquisition20:08 — Tata Group's acquisition of Global Brands23:33 — A visionary leader who chose to remain deeply private25:04 — How Ratan Tata dealt with Conflict28:58 — Dignity above all31:29 — The only concern on renovation of Bombay House34:41 — How the Tata Group gives back to Mumbai39:44 — Four lessons from Ratan Tata's Life42:50 — The deeper purpose that drives the Tata Group44:45 — Emotional gestures that speak to people's hearts48:45 — Ratan Tata as a philanthropist51:26 — A life guided by the principle: “Do the right thing”53:06 — The story behind the book-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

I talk with Harish Thangaraj, who was part of the team that re-discovered the Jerdon's Courser, one of the rarest birds in the world. The Jerdon's Courser is a mysterious species that was once thought to be extinct, but was then rediscovered in 1986 in India. After that, it vanished again for nearly 20 years. That is, until a team of researchers — including Harish Thangaraj — found it once more, and in a completely new area. Today, Harish joins me to share the incredible story of how they made that discovery, what it was like in the field, and what it means for the future of this critically endangered bird.Learn more at Harish's blog here: https://harryfication.wordpress.com/2025/09/04/dream-come-true-jerdons-courser-discovered-outside-lankamalla-after-125-years-on-the-first-day-of-our-trip/

Harish spent 9 months building Deliver and could barely get 10 customers. The product worked. Merchants liked the fast delivery promise. But nobody was signing up.Then he made two changes—and scaled to $100M in revenue in 2 years. Shopify acquired them for over $2B.Harish says it wasn't about finding product-market fit. It was about finding product-PRICE-market fit. The product was fine. The pricing model was killing them. This episode breaks down why pricing often isn't just a business decision—it's part of your product, how to build self-serve systems that scale to thousands of customers without talking to anyone, and why you must obsess about end users AND economic buyers if you actually want adoption.Harish is now building Augment, an AI company for logistics that just raised an $85M Series A.

Imagine an engineer who's gone from writing code to building a venture-backed startup—now creating AI-powered tools tailored for fashion brands in New York. That's Harish Chandramowli, Co-Founder of Flaire. His journey is a compelling example of the kind of leadership, innovation, and resilience we highlight on the Breakfast Leadership Show.

Harish Chandramowli grew up in a small town in India. The goal was simple early on - study well, go to university, and get a job. After undergrad, he realized he can do so much more, eventually coming stateside to get his masters, and meet a ton of really smart people over the last 10 years. Outside of tech, he is a broadway show fanatic, seeing 1-2 on a regular basis. He also follows Manchester United, which can be difficult watching the lose on the regular.Harish used to work for MongoDB, and spent some time on call and in the weeds. At that time, he realized how much data is used by a business. When he eventually supported the fashion industry, specifically the back office, he wanted to build a solution to make the lives of those back office individuals as easy as possible.This is the creation story of Flaire.SponsorsFull ScalePaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthPostmanMeilisearchLinkshttps://www.flairesoftware.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/scharish/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story-insights-from-startup-tech-leaders/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

From Security Systems to Scaling Startups: Meet the Engineer-Turned-CEO Powering Fashion's Digital Backbone This week, we interview Harish Chandramowli, the brilliant mind behind Flaire a lightweight, intuitive ERP system that's quietly transforming how fashion brands manage inventory, purchasing, and operations.

He codes, jumps on sales calls, rolls out productivity tools like Greptile, and builds remote-first teams with care and culture in mind.In this interview, we go beyond the product. We unpack his immigrant journey, his childhood curiosity, and how he found the courage to shift from code to customer balancing resilience, reinvention, and the business of listening.

Interview with Harish Peri from Okta Oktane Preview: building frameworks to secure our Agentic AI future Like it or not, Agentic AI and protocols like MCP and A2A are getting pushed as the glue to take business process automation to the next level. Giving agents the power and access they need to accomplish these lofty goals is going to be challenging, from a security perspective. How do put AI agents in the position to perform broad tasks autonomously without granting them all the privileges? How do we avoid making AI agents a gold mine for attackers - the first place they stop once they hack into our companies? These are some examples of the questions Okta aims to answer at this year's Oktane event, and we aim to kick off the conversations a little early - with this interview! Segment Resources: Check out securityweekly.com/oktane for all our live coverage during the event this year! More information about the event and how you can attend can be found here: https://www.okta.com/oktane/ AI at Work 2025: Securing the AI-powered workforce Topic - Indirect Prompt Injection Getting Out of Hand Reports of indirect prompt injection issues have been around for a while. Of particular note was Michael Bargury's Living off Microsoft Copilot presentation from Black Hat USA 2024. Simply sending an email to a Copilot user could make bad stuff happen. Now, at Black Hat 2025, we've got more: the ability to plunder any data resource connected to ChatGPT (they call these integrations "Connectors") from Tamir Ishay Sharbat at Zenity Labs. The research is titled AgentFlayer: ChatGPT Connectors 0click Attack. Looks like Google Jules is also vulnerable to what the Embrace the Red blog is calling invisible prompts. Sourcegraph's Amp Code is also vulnerable to the same attack, which encodes instructions to make them invisible. What's really going to ruffle feathers is the fact that all these companies know this stuff is possible, but don't seem to be able to figure out how to prevent it. Ideally, we'd want to be able to distinguish between intended instruction and instructions injected via attachments or some other means outside of the prompt box. I guess that's easier said than done? News Finally, in the enterprise security news, Drones are coming for you… to help?

My guest today is Harish Chandramowli, Co-founder & CTO of Flair software.In this conversation, Harish talks about his journey from his early university days in India at Amrita University to leading roles in major companies like Bloomberg and MongoDB. He articulates his shift to a niche field combining software engineering with security, his experience at Johns Hopkins University, and his eventual move into cloud security engineering. Harish shares insightful narratives about his founding a small startup and the creation and development of Flair, a fashion tech platform, highlighting the challenges and triumphs he encountered. Topics include his approach to managing remote teams, dealing with the pressures of startup life, the challenges of prioritization, and maintaining a work-life balance. Harish also discusses the importance of understanding customer needs and integrating AI and security in product development.Some of the topics covered are:Introduction and Early CareerGraduate Studies and Early Professional ExperienceCareer at Bloomberg and MongoDBStartup Journey and MongoDB ExperienceTransition to Flair and Early ChallengesInsights on Security and AIBuilding Flair and Remote Team ManagementEmpowering Engineers Through Customer InteractionChallenges of Managing Remote TeamsRetention and Team DynamicsBalancing Startup Pressures and Personal GrowthNavigating the Fashion Industry's Legal LandscapeBuilding Global Products from IndiaStaying Grounded Amidst Startup ChallengesHarish Chandramowli is a second-time founder who started his career in deeply technical roles—building cloud infrastructure and security at MongoDB. Over time, he evolved from shipping code to selling ideas—learning the language of customers, diving into sales-led discovery, and translating that into product strategy. Today, Harish blends technical depth with commercial instinct to build tools that solve real operational pain with clarity and impact

What happens when a cybersecurity engineer walks into a fashion boutique? For Harish Chandramowli, it sparked an idea that's now helping small fashion brands save time, money, and sanity. A chance observation in a New York store became a mission to untangle problems in inventory, communication, and operations many brands struggle with. In this episode, I speak with Harish, founder of Flair Software, about how he went from working at Bloomberg and MongoDB to building a platform that fixes the messy back-office problems fashion brands face. Harish explains why seasonal inventory is a high-stakes game, how communication breakdowns can cost thousands, and why he built his solution to integrate with Shopify instead of competing against it. Tune in now to learn more. --- Listen to the podcast here: From Cybersecurity to Fashion Tech with Harish Chandramowli Welcome to Action's Antidotes, your antidote to the mindset that keeps you settling for less. We have a lot of technological advances, a lot of digital technology, and a lot of the efforts around it have been used primarily around digital products, primarily around some of the platforms and everything else, but there's also an aspect that I'm hopeful around that really takes some of the digital technology that we have and uses it to enhance the physical products and the actual life that we have outside of our computers in real life. My guest today, Harish Chandramowli, is the founder of Flaire Software and he has some interesting solutions for the fashion industry and other kind of inventory-related pursuits. ---   Harish, welcome to the program.   It's a pleasure to be here.    Thank you for joining us. Now, first of all, kind of have your feet in both worlds, whether it be kind of our technological world as well as the world of fashion, the world of some of these in-real-life types of pursuits. Tell me a bit about your story, where you started and how you came up with the idea, what you observed that led to Flaire Software.   Yeah. Just taking a step back, I am not from fashion industry. It's all pretty new to me. I did my master's in cyber security actually in Johns Hopkins, then I worked as security engineer in a bunch of very data-related platforms like Bloomberg, MongoDB. And MongoDB was my last gig where I primarily started as cloud security engineer but moved on to like an Atlas dedicated team where you see how lot of different people use databases. And, interestingly, there are a lot of retail companies using databases very heavily. That made me more and more curious on how software is being used in retail industry and why database is like one of the biggest line expenditures. On top of that, when I was looking into ERPs, Oracle is one of the biggest player in the ERP market, which made me even more curious on what this space is. What happens around here? Why is a database company spending so much on an ERP, on like a data workflow?    Yeah.   This kind of made me curious but, again, it was more like I don't think I was into fashion or any of those things. I went to this store called ONS in Soho. It's a great store you should check out if you are ever in like downtown area in New York.    What's the store called again?   ONS.   Okay.   Orange, Naples, San Diego. So if you go to Soho and like downtown in the fashion districts, you will notice a lot of these small, small brands which is not your typical H&Ms or Zara.   Yeah.    So I was there, I was actually listening to their team meetings, talking a lot with their founder. I was looking at how they are operating in the back office. The first thing that stood out to me is that fashion as a whole uses a lot of software. One aspect of it which we are all familiar with is designing the fashion, like the threading, modeling and like the cut and everything. Another easier to relate option is like e-commerce site, where you list,

In this episode, Harish Chandramowli, Co-founder and CTO of Flaire, explores how AI is transforming the fashion and clothing industry—especially in streamlining operations and improving data management. He highlights the challenges brands face when relying on spreadsheets, and stresses the importance of data integrity for better decision-making. He also emphasizes the need for flexible pricing and the importance of adapting technology to fit each brand's unique workflows in the fashion and clothing industry. Topics discussed in this episode:  Why spreadsheets are secretly killing fashion brands' profitability. How AI is revolutionizing fashion operations. What data integrity mistakes cost fashion brands millions. Why most fashion ERP implementations fail. How to sanitize messy fashion data. What technical flexibility really means. Why pricing strategy determines software adoption. How AI visualizes complex fashion processes. What workflow understanding reveals. Why collaboration beats technology. Links & Resources Website: https://www.Flairesoftware.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scharish/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/Flaire-softwareGet access to more free resources by visiting the show notes athttps://tinyurl.com/3c2b4vj4MORE RESOURCES Subscribe to our FREE Newsletter: https://newsletter.ecommercecoffeebreak.com/ Free Store Optimization Beginners Guide: Instant PDF Download!

Harish, former lead engineer at MongoDB and current co-founder of Flaire, takes us on a journey through his unusual career path—one that didn't involve grinding LeetCode or chasing FAANG.Instead, he got deep into cybersecurity, built large-scale systems, and eventually started his own company that's redefining how small businesses use software.We talk about:What it's actually like to work on database internals and secure infrastructureWhy most engineers shouldn't become founders—and why he did anywayHow to use AI for real business workflows (not just ChatGPT hacks)The rise of “cybersecurity as product” and how ops teams still run on spreadsheets and WhatsAppWhy learning to code isn't just about DSA and bootcamps—it's about solving real problems“A lot of tools are built for enterprises, but most businesses are duct-taping together spreadsheets. We built for them.”“You need to understand how your workflows actually function before throwing AI at them.”“Don't overbuild. Build just enough to learn something, then improve.”If you're newer to tech and want to understand what actual engineering careers can look like—this episode will open your eyes to what's possible.Connect with Harish here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scharish/Send us a textShameless Plugs

Lex chats with Harish Natarajan - Practice Manager, Financial Inclusion and Infrastructure, Finance, Competitiveness & Innovation at the World Bank, and Carlos Brandt - The Senior Advisor for Pix at the Central Bank of Brazil. Together they discuss the remarkable success of Pix, Brazil's real-time payment system, which now sees over 6 billion transactions per month and is used by more than 90% of the adult population and 80% of companies. Lex explores how Pix was created by the Central Bank of Brazil with strong public-private collaboration, backed by regulatory authority and supported by a co-creation model with stakeholders. Key to its adoption were a low-cost centralized infrastructure, clear branding, mandatory participation by large banks, and a robust national communication strategy. Globally, Pix is seen as a leading example of fast payment system deployment, driven by the central bank acting as a neutral coordinator and scheme owner. Lex also examines the technical architecture, built in-house by a surprisingly small team of 55–65 people, and how scalable infrastructure and extensibility have enabled rapid growth and innovation. NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS: 1. Pix achieved mass adoption through public-private co-creation and legal mandate:Pix now processes over 6 billion transactions per month, with 90% of Brazil's adult population and 80% of businesses actively using it. Its success stems from a strategic legal mandate in 2013 granting the Central Bank regulatory and operational authority over retail payments. The Central Bank then led a co-creation process involving both public and private stakeholders through the Pix Forum, fostering alignment, inclusivity, and strong network effects.2. A lean but powerful team built a nation-scale real-time payments system:The Pix infrastructure was built entirely in-house by a relatively small team, 30-40 people for the technical infrastructure layer and around 25 for the payment scheme layer. It operates 24/7 with real-time settlement and uses centralized infrastructure separate from Brazil's traditional large-value payment rails. This centralized, purpose-built architecture dramatically lowered costs and enabled rapid rollout.3. Strategic communication and mandated participation drove adoption at scale:The Central Bank led a national communication campaign to build trust, establish a strong brand identity, and educate the public. Simultaneously, it mandated major banks (with over 500,000 active accounts) to join Pix, triggering widespread voluntary adoption from smaller PSPs. The rollout included a restricted pilot phase and emphasized user-friendly features like QR codes and aliases to boost convenience and usage from day one. TOPICS Pix, Central Bank of Brazil, World Bank, Visa, Citibank, M-Pesa, Alipay, SPI, fintech, payments, PSP, API, Fast Payments, Payments Infrastructure, PayTech ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT

On this episode of Talking Away The Taboo, Shirel Korobkin, joins Aimee Baron, MD to talk about... -her deeply personal fertility journey -the stillbirth she experienced four years ago, a recent miscarriage, and the ongoing pain and resilience that define life after loss -the powerful parallels between her own struggles and the journey of the Jewish people in Egypt -what it means to seek liberation while still walking through grief -tangible ways to care for yourself and “fill your cup” this holiday season—especially if your heart feels heavy during a time that celebrates freedom and renewal More about Shirel:  Shirel, with a background in colour management and graphic communications, made Aliyah (moved) to Israel in 2020. During her first few months as a new immigrant (olah chadashah), Shirel discovered she was pregnant. After a healthy pregnancy, at 26 weeks, Shirel found out there was no heartbeat and had to deliver her baby. Shirel felt she had no one to turn to for support. Shortly after her loss she moved to a remote city with no English-speaking resources, friends, or family, which created a void for the support she desperately sought. She found IWSTHAB who helped guide her through her loss, a pregnancy after that loss (PAL), and eventually welcoming a healthy rainbow baby. Shirel currently resides in Harish, Israel, and is very involved with developing events and support for the English-speaking community there. She is very grateful to be working with IWSTHAB and looks forward to giving back to the very same community that helped her through her most difficult moments. Shirel understands the challenges new immigrants and members of English-speaking communities face while navigating their fertility journeys in Israel and looks forward to providing support with compassion, empathy, and understanding.
