 The rise of the NRI social entrepreneurs
NRIpress.com’s management is in the process of bringing together two groups of NRI people who might otherwise never meet. “We are at the crossroads between capital and ideas—so why not bring the people with capital together with the people who have ideas?”
We must understand that being a social entrepreneur or focusing on social good doesn’t mean that you have to focus on charity or non-profit work. Social good is the idea that we can use the technologies and NRI communities we build to help others and improve the relationship between first and second generation
