Arvind Narayanan
Director @ AgResearch Labs
Imagine if everyone, everywhere, could access clean & safe food affordably. That’s the dream I’ve been chasing for 14 years, and that's what gets me out of bed every morning. I’m one of the Founders of AgResearch Labs - India’s own aeroponic research and farming hub. And Growize Farms is where we’ve made it possible for anyone to participate in building India’s clean food grid by owning a piece of the fully managed aeroponic farm. A decade ago, I started asking how we could grow clean food that is affordable for everyone? That curiosity led to AgResearch Labs. And the question is most relevant today as we face climate change and soil exhaustion, which stresses our food security system. After years of learning and experimenting, it grew into Growize Farms, which solves these challenges. Every year, every acre of these farms feeds 70,000 people, saves 400 million litres of water, conserves 36 acres of land and cuts 70 tons of CO2.

Rishi Krishna Iyer S
Founder, Symbionic
About In 2018 I lost my right hand. Then I went looking for a prosthetic arm. The imported ones cost more than a car and were built for conditions that do not exist here. The cheap ones did nothing. I had money, a network, and time, and I still could not find an arm I would actually wear. Most people in India who lose a hand have none of those three things. I co-founded Symbionic that year with Niranjankumar Raghupathi. We build the Krea Adaptive: a modular upper limb system with a quick-disconnect wrist, a 360-degree rotatable wrist, and four attachments covering the things people actually want back. Riding. Eating. Training. Working. Designed and assembled in India, for Indian conditions. People are using it across India. Some funded by corporate CSR, some by foundations, some who paid for it themselves. If you run CSR or a foundation funding disability or livelihood work in India message me here.
