He is an alumnus of The Rishi Valley School, Eton College, and the London School of Economics. A former management consultant with the Boston Consulting Group, he took an all too eager plunge into entrepreneurship in 2008.

In 2019, to commemorate Agastya?s two decades since inception, a proposal was put forth to capture the story of the foundation?s remarkable journey.
