What is the future of a creative career in a world of AI, rapidly changing tech, and
new opportunities?

We explore this and more in a deep and inspiring conversation with Madhu Amodia, a seasoned design leader and the Dean of École Intuit Lab,
Bangalore.
Madhu draws from her rich experience leading design for brands like Air India and
CNBC, sharing why she pivoted from the corporate world to focus on social
impact and education. She offers a vision for modern design education: one that
values real-world application over "utopian" projects, strengthens foundational
skills in the age of AI, and prepares students to become adaptable,
multidisciplinary thinkers.

This episode is for anyone passionate about design, art, and creativity. Learn why
India is an "untouched territory" for designers and how the next generation is
poised to shape a new, authentic creative narrative.

In this episode, you will discover:

• Madhu's journey from leading design at major corporations to finding her calling in education.
• The biggest gap in traditional design education and how to bridge it.
