Answer:
Swami Vivekananda inspired JN Tata to start the research institute for science now known as Indian Institute of Science. Local Bengalurians still refer to it as “TATA Institute”.
The subject is a reference to the annual fest of the Computer Science and Automation department at IISc (where our team and udupendra’s team were regular participants.. we got some really cool t-shirts there :) )

Quoting from wiki
Swami Vivekananda (1) had inspired Sir Jamshetji Tata (2) to set up a research and educational institution when they had travelled together from Yokohama to Chicago on the Swami’s first visit to the West in 1893.
Then, Tata set up Research Institute of Science, better known as IISc.
