The Journey of Hult - From a Campus Director’s Eye
My experience in entrepreneurship along with a zeal to impact the society in whatever ways I can, led me naturally to Hult- a platform which levitates you to the position of a changemaker and gives you the ability to leave a lasting impact on people. While it gives everyone an opportunity to be a dynamic social entrepreneur and to contribute their ideas towards the UN goals, for a campus director its much more. You get to work with like-minded people from across the world, you get to be the force which empowers and encourages people to develop that entrepreneurial spirit and you get to improve your society one step at a time. With the impact that 2020 has had on our lives, the need for HULT became altogether more important and I along with my team tried to rise up to the occasion and deliver our best. Generating awareness in over 7k people, raising over 3L funds and building an impact network at the ground level has been our fore this season. To summarize, the journey of HULT give you a sense of peace and satisfaction that you did your bit for the world.
