For ICTS to be internationally competitive in attracting the best minds, it needs resources on a higher scale and with much more flexibility. The peer institutions we are measuring ourselves up to internationally, have been built on the solid foundations of very generous endowments. A secure endowment will enable ICTS to deploy the resources needed to fulfil its dreams.

It is wonderful to see the dreams we had of establishing a Centre for Theoretical Physics in India being realized. I am very impressed with the remarkable developments since the inauguration in 2009. Visiting the site I could see a beautiful facility where cutting edge theory is being pursued with dynamic leadership at the top, with an initial first-rate faculty – nothing can stop this from happening. For those of us who have tried to help from afar these developments make us proud.

Chair, International Advisory Board
It has truly been an honor and privilege to be a part of the International Advisory Board of the ICTS, and to watch the ICTS grow from a dream into reality. ICTS, now at 10, has already begun to re-shape and significantly enhance the science research landscape of India, through its outstanding programs and lecture series for scientists and for the public, and through the high-level research activities of its faculty and students. I am confident that the next 10 years will bring ICTS to even greater heights!
