Through its digital learning, skilling, and employability programs, the Nasscom Foundation, the CSR arm of the IT industry association Nasscom, wants to have an influence on 100 million people by 2026, according to a top executive.

The organization hopes to have an influence on over 25 lakh lives across 15 states by the end of this year alone, with the primary objective of enabling women’s entrepreneurship, chief executive Nidhi Bhasin told ET. The foundation is quickly spreading its activities to rural India even though it is now concentrated on metropolitan regions. These programs fall under Nasscom’s stated Tech For Good objectives for the coming ten years.

By 2026, the organization hopes to have an impact on more than 100 million lives. The firm is discussing, among other things, rural areas, tier two, and tier three cities. Accordingly, their entire mission is to have an influence on 100 million lives through all of our activities, from Tech for Good to inclusion for everyone.
