Visionary Voices: A Fireside Chat with Arun Gupta, CEO and Board Member of NobleReach Foundation - College of Engineering - Purdue University

Visionary Voices, a series of talk show-style chats hosted by the John A. Edwardson Dean of the College of Engineering, will feature Arun Gupta, venture capitalist, co-author of The Mission Generation, the national bestseller Venture Meets Mission, and CEO of NobleReach Foundation, where he works to rekindle a spirit of national service through innovation and entrepreneurship. After more than two decades investing in companies at the intersection of technology and national security, he enjoys working with entrepreneurs building for impact and teaching the next generation how to do the same.

At Stanford and Georgetown, where he has received multiple faculty teaching awards, Arun challenges students to see entrepreneurship not just as a path to success, but as a platform for purpose. He speaks at national forums, writes in leading journals, and serves on advisory boards shaping the future of tech, policy, and innovation.

He holds a BS and MS in engineering from Stanford University and an MBA from Harvard Business School.

The son of a Navy engineer who served over forty years, Arun has lived in Washington, D.C., for nearly five decades, where he coaches youth sports and mentors young entrepreneurs. Happily married to Dr. Anjali Mehta Gupta for 30 years, they have three children who inspire his belief that ambition and impact aren’t competing ideals, but complementary forces unified by purpose and essential to shaping a better future.
