Bringing electrical and computer knowledge to the youth of India
“As an engineer, I believe that electricity is life”, says Ashok Rane, a senior manager at Siemens India. As an engineer, his work is never done – he’s always looking for solutions that will improve people’s lives
This goal has driven him his whole life, and today Ashok is passing on his knowledge to the next generation of young Indian engineers. He set up the Siemens Aikya Education and Welfare Trust to teach, support and inspire young people who are studying engineering and computer science.
He believes that young generations have the potential to change the future for the better, “It’s our duty to take whatever we learn from others and give it to the young generations”.
