During the visit to MUMBAI, I was greatly reminded that Entrepreneurs are the ones that will be the major shifting energy in changing the following key sectors of the planet

1) Education - entrepreneurs will be the ones who transform the education systems of the world. With the launch of XL Playskools, we are very excited about the prospects of playing a role in transforming education globally. In India, our initiatives will be greatly enhanced by the incredible commitment, resources and consciousness that LM’s possess and are willing to share and deliver. It was great to have Akhil and Maya from the Shahani Education Trust (currently over 25 colleges throughout India) and education crusader Krishnan and his very talented creative designer daughter Devika in the room as well as a number of others committed to see education evolve and transform in India including Maya’s foundation partner Ranjit and Saswata, Sid, and Dipan.

2) Health and Wellness - entrepreneurs will play a leadership role in the shift in global consciousness in health and wellness from the traditional westerner approach of treating the symptoms to getting to the routes and developing holistic approaches to health and wellness. Two of our innovative entrepreneurs in the travel industry Manoj and 18 year old Natasha provide transportation, ground services and consultation for interested visitors to India who are interested in developing a greater awareness and exposure to ayuvedic and natural remedies provided in India.
