Yosem, great to meet you! I'm from the US originally, but working at a
company based out of IIT-Madras, called Uniphore, and our focus is
precisely on one type of 'liberation technology': speech technology. Broadly
speaking, using multilingual speech recognition in 14 Indian languages and
voice biometric technologies, we empower businesses to connect with the BOP
through secure, personalized voice interactions through any basic mobile
phone. Through voice, we eliminate the troubles caused by literacy levels
and handset capability variation. Till date, our focus has been building
voice-based applications for financial inclusion, agri, and health
companies - to help them to penetrate deeper into he pyramid, enhance their
service delivery, and increase their efficiency. Happy to chat more about
it, and would love to learn more about the other liberation technologies
you're mapping out.
