A huge thank you to Jigyasa Labroo for facilitating a wonderful team-building workshop for all of us, and one specifically focused on overall healing of mind, body, heart and soul through poetry and exercises that allowed us to engage across a range of emotions (from raw grief, stress and helplessness to joy and gratitude) and get to know each other a little bit better, even if by just by holding silence, the beautiful smiles here proof enough of how amazing the workshop was. Thank you!

"One of the most fascinating parts of signing up for the LivingMyPromise pledge is to think critically about how we create the most impact not just with wealth but also the entire network, knowledge base, and skills we have developed over the years."

Pramod Bhasin shares his thoughts on the occasion of DaanUtsav on why he set up Asha Impact as a twin entity for impact investing, development finance, and working with the government to solve critical developmental challenges. He also talks about the huge potential of technology, especially now in healthcare to achieve improved outcomes at scale and the instrumental role of patient capital in seeding and scaling such business models.



We need to be impatient for change with our patient capital, write Pramod Bhasin and Aparna Dua.
