Ex- Microsoft India chair launches million jobs drive

Social Venture Partners India led by former Chairman of Microsoft India, Ravi Venkatesan, has invited social entrepreneurs to participate in its drive to create jobs. The Million Jobs Mission would bring together a global consortium of best-in-class design, funding and implementation partners to create an ecosystem by 2020. Venkatesan said India needs well-meaning, capable global and local partners to come together to address the “jobless growth” scenario in the country.
