About The Quantum Hub (TQH) Consulting
The Quantum Hub (TQH) was founded in 2017 with the express intent of supporting development organisations, businesses and policymakers with complex public policy problems in the dynamically evolving Indian ecosystem. We are based out of New Delhi and support clients along the entire cycle of policy formulation – from developing well-researched policy positions to building communications and advocacy strategies. Description of TQH’s current and previous engagements The team at TQH works on a diverse range of projects. We work across sectors such as tech policy, social policy and urban affairs.
We have led policy research and advocacy work for Catalyst, an initiative seeded by the Government of India and USAID to increase the adoption of digital payments in India. We have also worked closely with the Government of Haryana for employment and skilling, supported NITI Aayog and the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation (MSDF) with building momentum for reforms in education and undertaken projects for UN agencies. We currently anchor all advocacy initiatives for the Property Rights Research Consortium and are working to build support for policies that empower women with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and IWWAGE. We also lead policy assignments for tech majors such as Amazon and work with industry bodies such as NASSCOM on regulation of new business models. Our other projects include advocacy support to Omidyar Network India on Open Digital Ecosystems and tech policy work for the Match Group in India. We also work with the Lancet Commission on issues of political economy of healthcare.
