Vote for XL Students' Venture @ Tata-NEN Hottest Start-Ups

Folks!

XL students' entry to "XLRI's Venture @ Tata-NEN Hottest Start-Up" (Parichay) happens to be 1 of the 3 Social Ventures which the XLRI Social Entrepreneurship Trust is supporting (thanks to the contribution from the 81batch & Jamshedpur Chapter)... The 3 ventures are floated by the present batch students, who are looking at a different trajectory in life/career....and make a difference

Please vote for "Parichay" - a venture to provide market-linkages to rural/tribal artisans by logging in at:
