Along with teaching his son after school, Srikanth Talapadi, CEO of Bengaluru-based software firm Amiti, had taken to tutoring the daughter of the security guard at his apartment complex. So, when the guard told him that he would be moving to another location, Talapadi, 47, was concerned about what would happen to his daughter’s schooling. “He told me she will stop going to school. That got me thinking about how I could help children to learn even when they were not going to school, and how to help those who were going to school to learn better,” says the alumnus of IIM-Bangalore and Rutgers University, US.
