INSPIRING ENTREPRENEUR

This is the story of Arunachalam Muruganantham - a man who fought against poverty, social taboos and age-old beliefs. A man who persisted in his endeavour to beat the multinationals and break the stranglehold they had on the sanitary napkin industry, so that poor, rural women could also buy and use a reasonably priced hygienically made product, available at an affordable price.


The story of this workshop helper has been found to be inspiring by many. Some people have commented that their faith in humanity was restored after seeing the video clip. This poorly educated man has told his story in broken English in a humorous style of his own to an educated audience and he has held business school graduates spellbound with his grit, determination and above all, a total lack of greed for quick money and a burning desire to serve the poor women of rural India.


His story is given below in the video:
