Menlo Ventures partner Deedy Das explains why Anthropic’s enterprise bet paid off, why OpenAI and its rivals may be undervalued, and what follows the current infrastructure boom.

Das also discusses the agent-driven internet, AI regulation, IT services and why writing remains a modern career superpower.

But Sun Life CEO Kevin Strain says ownership is less important than building the right business—and that the company currently works better alongside the Aditya Birla Group than alone. In this conversation from the Economic Times World Leaders Forum, Strain explains to ET’s banking editor Sangita Mehta why Sun Life’s India insurance business is growing 25% annually, where its $100-billion asset manager goes next, and how private credit and infrastructure could power its expansion.
