Drishtee, a rural information technology company in which Acumen Fund has invested, was featured on CNN-IBN earlier this week. The story describes how Drishtee helped launch a business process outsourcing operation in rural Bihar, creating well-paying, dignified jobs for previously under-employed villagers.
Congratulations to the Drishtee team on this high-profile news coverage.
Well that’s a good idea. BPO does help a lot of companies in poor countries, like in India and Philippines BPO where outsourcing skilled IT staff is one of their specialties.
