Action For India
Organization background

Action for India (AFI)'s mission is to help social innovators in India overcome barriers to scale and achieve greater impact at the bottom of the pyramid. AFI connects social innovators with impact investors, mentors, technology resources, government contacts and local partners.

Project background

AFI runs a Social Enterprise Advisory Service where they work with 25 social entrepreneurs, every year, to help scale the impact of their work. They do this by showcasing their technology, connecting them with sources of funding, mentors, technology resources, government representatives and customers. The entrepreneurs with the top 5 ideas are entered into AFI's SVC Trek program, where they are taken on an all-expenses paid trip to Silicon Valley, to interact with leading investors, technology executives and entrepreneurs.
