Sampark Foundation was co-founded by the visionary leaders, Anupama Nayar and Vineet Nayar - the latter also renowned as the former Vice Chairman and CEO of HCL Technologies and the acclaimed author of the Harvard Business Press bestseller, "Employees First: Customer Second". Sampark Foundation stems from a profound belief in the transformative power of 'frugal innovation'. We're staunch advocates of the idea that when paired with effective collaboration with the government, such innovation can catalyze monumental improvements in learning outcomes. Inspired by this very philosophy, our founders took a leap of faith, dedicating their lives to the monumental task of revolutionizing primary education in India. The impact? A remarkable reach to more than 1 cr children, spanning over 100,000 schools in 8 diverse states, and the journey has just begun.
