Rural India needs ideas that can deliver inclusive, eco-friendly and sustainable
prosperity. A handful of individuals – better known as social entrepreneurs,
are making a difference by blurring the boundaries between business and social
good. These individuals stand out for their vision, purposefulness, passion,
leadership, innovativeness, risk taking ability, and persistence.
