Three graduates of IIM Ahmedabad Sridhar Sudhir and Venkat quit their jobs that were highly paid at TATA IBM, ITW Signode and Sony Entertainment to start Eklavya School in Ahmedabad with an aim to help children learn with understanding.
However they soon realised that opening one model school will not be enough and more had to be done as lot of students are trapped in a rote learning system.
It was in 2001 that they co-founded Educational Initiatives (EI) with an aim to develop products and services based on research and assessment that can measure how children are learning. The first investor in the company was Srini Raghavan.
