Hear from our Fellows
“From the education I received at One League, I not only had the opportunity to become a Statistics professor at a renowned institute in Mumbai at the age of 24, but also the chance to share the true beauty of the subject. The sense of inclusion and collaboration we had at One League is something I now bring into every one of my classes.”
Ankita Palshetkar
Class of 2023, India
“The program’s rigor and mentorship directly shaped my path — today, I’m undertaking a PhD focused on greenwashing and sustainable finance, where I apply AI and machine learning to study corporate climate disclosures. Without the skills, mindset, and community I gained at One League, this academic and research journey would not have been possible.”
Kar Woh Chong
Class of 2023, Malaysia
“I aim to contribute significantly to sustainable autonomous robotics and create a more equitable world. The exposure to cutting-edge and innovative ideas gained from One League will keep me at the forefront.”
