Pavitra Raja: For some people, entrepreneurship is in their bones, it’s in their DNA. It’s just what they were born to do.
I’m Pavitra Raja and I’ve been lucky enough to work with some of the world's most inspiring social innovators through my work at the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship.
These are the kinds of people you’ll be wanting to hear from - leading social innovators who are not only fixing a problem but the root causes of these problems – and they are dedicating their lives to it.
