Building the future while honouring the past

Weaving a thread of prosperity online

I had big dreams when I left my hometown of Alwar, Rajasthan, in 2005. But after eight years working in IT, I found that my career wasn’t giving me the satisfaction I was seeking when I first came to Panipat for work. So I found an even bigger dream: I would start my own business.

Women can change the world

Aruna Dara

Founder & CEO, Apna Green Products, Hyderabad, Telangana

The entrepreneurial journey is not easy, especially for women. My business partner and I met in 1996 at Maharishi University, where we were the only two women in our MBA class. We talked about developing a business then, but after graduation, we went our separate ways—I went into a corporate career in telecoms—and we both raised families. It was great to meet again in 2016.
