On the twenty-first episode of the Utility Strategy Podcast, we learn from researcher Amit Kumar about the vast scope of infrastructural changes across India, as well as the challenges and opportunities for utility coordination in a country with more than 8,000 urban centers.

Amit Kumar is a registered architect, urban and rural planner, and currently a scholar at the Transportation Research and Injury Prevention Programme, Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi. His research focuses on public utility coordination in right-of-way management, including technologies such as GIS and BIM and approaches such as agent-based modelling (ABM) to identify critical pain points of the industry and increase safety in the public ROW.
