About this evening

Snakes are India's most misunderstood wildlife. Behind the fear lies a story of science, ecology, and a quiet technology revolution that is changing how the country responds to snakebite.

Join Mr. Jose Louies — one of India's leading voices on snake conservation and the mind behind the Serpent app — for an evening that reframes scales, fangs, and folklore through the lens of evidence and empathy.

A note from the host

"Jose has spent a lifetime making the case that snakes deserve our science, not our slippers. This evening with him is one of those rare rooms you'll remember. I hope you'll join us."
