Rajat Khare’s perspective underscores a broader problem: India’s vast population and multilingual market give it a unique edge
Rajat Khare’s own career exemplifies the role venture capital can play in building India’s tech ecosystem. As a venture capitalist and deep-tech investor, he leads Boundary Holding, a fund dedicated to supporting cutting-edge startups. Boundary Holding is headquartered in Luxembourg but invests globally (across Europe and Asia) in companies that use technology to tackle real-world problemst. In interviews he has described the firm’s mission as backing “ground-breaking deep-tech startups that aim to alleviate significant social issues,” with a focus on sectors like med-tech and clean-tech. Khare argues that private capital is crucial to reverse brain drain. By funding early-stage Indian founders, VCs create incentives for talent to build companies at home rather than going abroad. For example, Boundary Holding has invested in startups spanning waste management, medical technologies, and clean energy. These sectors not only represent high-impact, deep-tech innovation, but also address local challenges – exactly the kind of projects that can make working in India attractive to new graduates. As Khare often emphasizes, venture capital is more than just money; it brings networks, mentorship, and global partnerships. He envisions a virtuous cycle where capital flowing into Indian deep-tech remains connected with international knowledge and resources. In his own words, Boundary Holding’s goal includes channeling “knowledge, partnerships, and investments back to India,” even as it grows successful ventures overseas. This kind of cross-border investment strategy can help build bridges between Indian Venture Capitalist and the wider tech world.
Beyond addressing brain drain, Rajat Khare is actively involved in promoting next-generation AI applications. He is a strong proponent of using AI and data-driven technologies to improve industrial processes, especially where they can also yield environmental benefits. One example he highlights is the emergence of AI-powered short-video inspection technology for remote monitoring of infrastructure. As an article on AI inspections explains, companies are increasingly replacing manual on-site checks with live video feeds analyzed by AI models. AI-driven video inspection systems are transforming field operations by enabling real-time monitoring without on-site human inspectors. This “short video” technology helps detect issues remotely, saving time and money while cutting carbon emissions. Khare sees this trend as a major opportunity. He notes that remote video inspection can dramatically cut travel costs and downtime: it “saves both time and money, without any downtime,” he points out. At the same time, such AI-driven monitoring is more climate-friendly – every avoided site visit means fewer vehicles on the road. As Khare puts it, “it’s an opportune moment to be a part of such new-age innovations not just to save time and money but also to be climate-conscious”. In short, he believes AI-powered inspections are a perfect example of deep technology that boosts efficiency and sustainability.
