Today we met all of the clients - we hosted a full day session at the guest house, which was so fascinating. There are four clients for the 12 of us - three assigned to each.
ABT Dairy (part of Shakthi Group, a huge conglomerate in India) - This is the project I'm on with Joe and Sandra. Our goal is to help them reach their goal of doubling milk production capacity by 2020 to meet demand in India as well as complete on the global market. We'll be developing a cooperative model for the 18,000 dairy farmers they work with across the state of Tamilnadu, specifically focusing on the small and marginal farmers.
Sankara Eye Institute - A truly amazing organization. They operate through a combination of a paid and volunteer workforce, providing 500 free eye surgeries every single day. It's also one of the largest eye banks in India, and provides preventive care for children in villages as well. I think our entire group will get to visit their hospital at some point. http://www.sankaraeye.com/
India 75 - Celebrating India's 75th anniversary of independence in 2022, the group's goal is to create a new socio-economic model for India, using technology and entrepreneurship. http://www.indiaat75.in/index.asp
PSG - Provides medical training for people all over India, especially the lower socio-economic population, with the goal of increasing the capacity of health care professionals in the region.
While we're each assigned to a single client, we all share knowledge and ideas on everyone's engagements. Interesting comment from the presentations today - one in six people today live in India... crazy.
