If you find yourself journeying to India this summer, make sure to include a visit to the Mittal Institute’s India office in your itinerary. Here are six reasons why:
1. Where Harvard Meets India’s Intellectual Core
Located in Connaught Place, at the center of New Delhi’s cultural and commercial life, the India office is a hub for academic exchange. Visitors can connect with our in-country team whose expertise adds depth and perspective to every visit.
2. A Thoughtfully Designed Space to Work and Reflect
Spread across two floors, the office is built for both productivity and exchange. Whether you’re settling into a quiet corner of the curated library or joining a discussion in one of the conference rooms, the space supports research alongside collaborative dialogue. You can view photos of the India office here.
3. Ideas in Motion
From seminars and book talks to symposia and informal gatherings, the office regularly convenes scholars, practitioners, and thinkers. These events offer a chance not just to listen, but to engage within ongoing conversations shaping the region.
4. Meaningful Local Connections
The office acts as a bridge to a wide network of partners, from policymakers and academics to nonprofits and more. These connections open doors to experiences and insights that go far beyond what a typical visit can offer.
5. A Strategic Base in the Region
More than just a workspace, the India office is a launchpad for exploring South Asia’s academic and cultural landscape. Its central location makes it easy to navigate the city, while its networks extend across the region.
6. Built-in Community for Visiting Researchers
Working abroad can feel isolating, but not here. The office creates an immediate sense of community, offering a place to meet fellow Harvard affiliates, exchange ideas, and find intellectual companionship while in India.
The Mittal Institute warmly invites Harvard’s community to make the India office part of their journey. Whether you’re conducting research, attending events, or simply looking to connect, it’s a unique entry point into South Asia’s rich intellectual and cultural life.
