Well my mama told me, there'll be days like this

Van Morrison said it best...

When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they fit
Then I must remember there'll be days like this

Today was the culmination of our four weeks of work developing an incubation model for our client, the Navabharath Foundation. We gave our final presentation to the Foundation’s chairman and staff, and I was proud of the results we delivered. In our presentation we described a micro-enterprise incubation model that transforms business ideas into self-sustaining micro-enterprises using a structured four-phased approach. Our model includes supporting materials for feasibility assessments, business plans, financial reporting and identifying success indicators. A key element of our proposed approach is partnering with sponsor organisations to provide mentoring to the micro-enterprises in management, marketing, financial and technical skills.

Undoubtedly there is more work to be done by others, but I believe we have started a ball rolling that will result in improvements to the living standard of underprivileged in Kerala.

A very special and sincere thank you to my team mates - Cat and Rafael. It was a privilege and joy to work alongside such talented individuals. Y'all are legends!
