Chai & Chips is where semiconductors and deep tech meet Indian ambition.

We’re here to educate, inform, and spark curiosity—through sharp insights, real conversations, and bold perspectives from leaders shaping the future of chips and deep tech.

From India’s semiconductor strategy to the explosive rise of AI chips, from the geopolitics of silicon to the ethics of supply chains, we go deep. We explore how deep tech is transforming EVs, healthcare, telecom, education, and defence—and talk to the people building, investing in, and regulating the ecosystem.

This is the podcast for those who believe deep tech is not just a sector—but a national mission.

About Us:
Chai & Chips is India’s go-to platform for honest, no-fluff conversations at the intersection of semiconductors, AI, and nation-building. Hosted by global tech executive Prakash Mallya, the podcast draws on over two decades of experience in the chip industry across India, Southeast Asia, and the US. Prakash’s deep love for technology and passion for India shape thoughtful conversations on the forces driving innovation, industry, and the country’s tech ambitions.

As AI reshapes industries and supply chains are redrawn, chips have never been more critical to a country’s self-reliance. But are we asking the right questions? With insights from the brightest minds around the world, we explore what it takes—and what history teaches us—to build a resilient deep-tech ecosystem in India that endures.

Follow us for sharp takes, real stories, and a vision for a Deep Tech Nation.
