our Goal is;
"to create new social entrepreneurs" who are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems. Rather than leaving societal needs to the government or business sectors, social entrepreneurs find what is not working and solve the problem by studying the existing problem-solution. They identify the appropriate technology, convert technical idea into a working solution, test and deploy the solution and finally persuade entire societies to move in these new directions. Social entrepreneurs think big, but also realists, and are ultimately concerned with the practical implementation of their ideas above all else. |

Nashik2014 to solve Kumbh challenges
"The most spectacular event "Nashik Kumbh Mela 2015" is expecting 10 million pilgrims from around the world. Imagine the kind of pressure & over-burden that will put on the local system & resources because of the huge crowd. But this time, together we all will handle it uniquely with our innovations. This is an invitation to students, institutions, agencies, individuals & groups - to collaborate via innovative ideas to solve those future issues. "
