Bidisha is also deeply committed to promoting inclusivity, working closely with LGBTQIA+ groups in India and leading efforts to enlighten corporate leaders about the importance of diversity.

Bidisha is currently dedicated to formulating AI-driven metrics to gauge the gender and economy equality index in companies, aiming to enhance awareness and understand its influence on corporate performance. She is passionate about advancing gender and equality awareness in the business world.
In her BMO GATE MBA fellowship project, Bidisha explores the experiences of LGBTQIA+ professionals in various work settings and their dynamics with senior leaders and colleagues. She uses a series of interviews and focus group experiments to create AI Chatbot EVA to bridge the gap between sustainable work practices and knowledge of the lived experiences of the queer professionals. The tool serves as a prototype medium for the allies to understand how to create a safe and productive environment for their queer colleagues.
