The streaming window. Now, electron season is on in india, and the fate of incumbent 5 minutes to not in the movie is being determined voting phase by voting phase. This part, the setting heat indians have been chewing up at pointing stations to cost their ballot. Its been about 3 weeks into this exercise. Weve 3 more to go. Nearly 970000000 people are eligible to vote and just for competitors and sake. That number is more than the electorate of indonesia, but United States boxed on bucks, others, and some other countries combined. As now, such numbers mean that the future of the worlds most populous nation impacts the world, whether its through india as influential taskbar, down to 18000000, strong, also in the Foreign Trade policies, or through indias Foreign Policy and how it deals with global issues of the day its an election with wide ramifications and one that Identity Bureau has been competing. Yes, correspondence show the other on what the election is looking like. 4 phases in
It takes up more room than the actual article itself. Want to introduce the subject of this next session which is this booklet here. Its called transform which is very beautiful and its about an initiative that we were privileged to fund called exploring innovation frontier. I want to give a shout out to promote the head of our engineering director at the time a few years ago when we made the decision to fund this. He has gone on to uc irvine where he is a vice chancellor for research. During this time there have been several workshops around the country and ill say a few words about that and then you will hear from two of the people that were greatly involved in those workshops more about this. Let me make now that ive kind of introduced the subject of basic research, leading to innovation and leading to engineering applications, let me make some formal remarks. I will just begin with the quote from our inspiration of the National Science foundation who believed that there must be a s
More now from the National Competitiveness forum with the focus on Public Private partnerships and manufacturing. This is an hour and a half. Good morning, everyone. Its great to be back with the council again. So i only have half a voice, im afraid. I left the other half in stockholm a couple days ago. I was very privileged to get to attend the nobel prize ceremonies because the National Science association supported the 3 physicists that won the prize for Gravitational Waves for 40 years. I think thats a good place to start. [ applause ] its good for all of us to appreciate just what a high risk high reward investment is all about. So that was a progress of technology and super duper engineering challenges that had to be overcome. A lot of people, as you might guess, came and went. It involved multidisciplinary teams of people who did the numerical relativity using Super Computers so we actually knew when the first gravitational wave was detected, what the source was, that it was two

Its good for all of us to appreciate just what a high risk, high reward investment is all about. So if that was a progress of technology and super duper engineering challenges that had to be overcome, a lot of people as you might guess came and went. And it involved multidisciplinary teams of people who did the numerical relativity for computers so thats new in the first gravitational wave was detected. And what the source was, that was two colliding black holes that were in a postbinary system. The most recent gravitational wave detection to neutron stars emerging. So its, but it was a very long tail. There are many many directors, many and its a Program Officers involved National Science board, they changed over large number of times during that interval and had to improve all the funding and that of Course Congress of course was the ultimate arbiter of appropriations and making the decision to continue an investment but nobody was quite sure what would have a result so how risky is
