Why it matters
Udyam, effort that produces a livelihood, is the third word in our name. Knowledge and science matter most when someone can build a living from them.
We count success in livelihoods: a business registered, an income earned, a product sold. We report how many people we worked with and what changed for them, and nothing more.
