Accelerating Development by Collaborating with Responsible Businesses and Social Entrepreneurs

We believe that social entrepreneurship is the panacea to tackle the dual challenges of poverty and sustainability we face with growing concern in India today. Inequality has doubled in the last 20 years and 400 million people live on less than a dollar a day. Rapidly depleting natural resources means alternative measures must be adopted immediately for environmental sustainability. And yet, Indians are known for ‘jugaad’, that singular ability to adapt, invent and innovate to change life for the better. Increasingly, social enterprises are seen as units of business acumen committed to identifying and implementing sustainable and profitable solutions to local problems. For effective social growth and reforms, social enterprises cannot act in a vacuum but must develop in tandem with improved public sector services, and responsible business. Vikasa International Center is doggedly committed to championing the cause of social entrepreneurs, and tying this in with corporate investments in social business ventures. If you are an aspiring social entrepreneur or interested in working with us in this space, contact us 7675855890

Your venture can create real impact and still struggle to be understood, differentiated, or funded.

Sometimes, the challenge isn’t the model itself—it’s how the venture is positioned and how its value is communicated.

Brand Positioning & Impact Communication, the first masterclass in the Bala Vikasa CSRB Masterclass Series, is designed as a practical working session for social entrepreneurs, founders, and innovators building impact-led ventures.

Together, we’ll unpack how positioning influences the way your venture is perceived, how to communicate impact with greater clarity, and how to build a stronger case for what makes your work distinct and credible.

This is especially relevant if you’re building an impact venture and finding it difficult to communicate your value beyond numbers, describe what sets you apart, or make your work immediately understandable to funders, partners, and other stakeholders.

You won’t just listen and take notes. Bring one venture with you and work on it during the session—with practical tools, peer feedback, and a written positioning statement you can take back to your team.

📅 5 October 2026 | 3:00–5:30 PM IST
💻 Live Online Masterclass
💰 ₹999 + 18% GST

If you’re ready to look at your venture through a sharper communication and positioning lens, register now.

⏳ 3 Days to Go — The National CSR Dialogue

India Inc. spent over ₹40,000 crores on CSR last year. Almost no one can say how well it was spent.

On 16th September, we're bringing that conversation to your screen, live.

Dr. Bhaskar Chatterjee, the architect of India's CSR mandate, and Mr. Nirbhay Lumde, Senior Vice President - ESG at Prestige Group, join us to unpack impact-driven CSR and the Social Stock Exchange. The evening is anchored by Mr. Shoury Reddy Singareddy, Executive Director, Bala Vikasa.

This is not a webinar of theory. It's a dialogue about what comes next for CSR in India — and seats are limited.

If you lead CSR, run a foundation, or shape how your organisation approaches impact, block your evening now.

The National CSR Dialogue is here!

In July, we brought together CSR leaders, corporate foundations and sustainability voices in Hyderabad for our first CSR Conclave, around one question that clearly struck a nerve: not how much India Inc. gives, but how well.

The room was full. The conversation was real. And the response told us this could not stay a one-city affair.

So we're taking it national.

India Inc. spent over ₹40,000 crores on CSR last year, yet almost no one can say how well it was spent.

The Social Stock Exchange was built to change what that money can do, but most CSR teams still struggle with how listing on SSE works, which instruments qualify, or where it meets Section 135.

On 16th September, we're putting that conversation on the national stage, right to your screens.

Dr. Bhaskar Chatterjee, the architect of India's CSR mandate and Mr. Nirbhay Lumde, Senior Vice president, ESG, Prestige group, join us to unpack impact-driven CSR and the Social Stock Exchange, live, online, in a room built for the people who actually direct social spend. This evening is going to be anchored by Mr. Shoury Reddy, Executive Director, Bala Vikasa.

Not a webinar of theory. A dialogue about what comes next.

If you lead CSR, run a foundation, or shape how your organisation approaches impact, this is a room worth being in.

We're opening a limited set of seats. Register your interest and we'll send you the payment details, followed by your invitation to join.

What does the next decade of CSR in India actually look like? A room full of leaders came to T-Hub to find out.

At the Hyderabad CSR Conclave, hosted by Bala Vikasa’s Center for Social and Responsible Business with Telangana Social Impact Group as Facilitation Partner, 150+ CSR heads, corporate foundation leaders, and sustainability practitioners spent an afternoon on one theme: Impact and the Social Stock Exchange.

The message from Dr. Bhaskar Chatterjee, architect of India’s CSR mandate, was clear. CSR is moving into an impact-first era, where results matter more than reporting, and what began as a mandate has grown into something genuinely constructive and collaborative.

The afternoon also marked a milestone: Dr. Chatterjee received a Letter of Association from Bala Vikasa, formalizing his role as Strategic Advisor and Visiting Faculty.

From the role of the Social Stock Exchange in unlocking impact capital, to what honest impact measurement really requires, the conversation stayed refreshingly practical.

A full house on a working afternoon says it all. Thank you to our guests, speakers, and everyone who joined us. This is the first of many.

19 founders. One cohort. And a very good reason to be hopeful.

PrISE 3.0 begins tomorrow.

Over 200 social enterprises applied this year. 130+ were shortlisted. 67 stood in front of a jury. Nineteen now step into months of mentorship, hard questions and real work alongside each other.

They are building in livelihoods, health, education, farm incomes, waste and water. Most of them live inside the very problem they are solving. That is what makes them worth backing.

Congratulations to the PrISE 3.0 cohort. And to every founder who applied and trusted us with their work, thank you. Our door stays open.

A New Cohort. A Shared Vision. A Greater Impact.

The impact amplifies here.
