And I think that's probably true of whoever he talks to, whether it's the President of the United States or someone that he meets for the first time from society," Schmidt said.Schmidt also spoke about India's work in research and science."It was actually really enjoyable. He (PM Modi) was very well briefed on what we're doing here in Australia and how we can work together in research and science. India's ability to do world-class science has become just an order of magnitude higher because India is investing in its science and scientists to give them equipment and the ability to ask questions on the edge," Schmidt said.The Nobel laureate chairs key management committees including the University Senior Management Group and the ANU Executive and is also a member of the ANU governing body, the Council.The Vice-Chancellor is the University's primary representative to government and wider society and to national and international organisations.

And I think sitting with him today and having a conversation made me realize just how personable he is and really engaged," Todd said.Since her debut on MasterChef Australia, Todd has grown to become one the most renowned and exciting names in the Indian food scene, opening her first restaurant Antares Restaurant and Beach Club in 2014, where after she returned to Australian screens for a six-part series called 'My Restaurant in India', airing in 156 countries worldwide.In 2020 Todd was invited as an official chef for the Australian Open in the AO Chefs Series, hosting a fine dining restaurant that was featured in a 5-part series called Perfect Serve.In the series of meetings with influential people in Sydney, PM Modi met "Toilet Warrior" Mark Bella.

This is one of the most important things that I've seen happen in India in the 1520 years that I've been visiting your country," Bella said.Meanwhile, Sydney-based artist working in large-scale mural design and public art, Danielle Mate, who met PM Modi in Sydney, said, "We've talked a lot about how India and Australia could work better encouraging creative subjects, particularly in university. He definitely has a creative element to himself, so I think he can really see similarities between First Nations arts and possibly Gond arts. So indigenous arts of India. And I think there are a lot of cultural crossovers in the arts as well as just culturally, I suppose there are a lot of similarities between our two countries, which is beautiful."Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Sydney as part of the third and final leg of his three-nation visit after concluding his visit to Papua New Guinea.
