Vikasa International Center
Who We Are
• We believe in the conjunction of business and community
partnership as an answer to the most pressing challenges
of society today.
• Vikasa International Center will provide a platform for
mutually enriching partnerships between corporates,
entrepreneurs, institutions and communities. 
About Us
Vikasa International Center is the
newest initiative of SOPAR-Bala
Vikasa, a registered, secular and
apolitical non-profit organization
founded in 1977 by Mr Andre
Gingras, a French Canadian
diplomat and development expert
and Mrs Bala Theresa Gingras, an
Indian philanthropist.
Our Unique Approach
• Our unique partnership model aligns long-term, business
and community relationships, because we believe
business can help end poverty.
• We know that real change is led by community driven
development, which focuses on existing assets of the
community in creating positive socio-economic
environments around the less privileged sections,
communities and regions. 
Our value proposition for
business, social entrepreneurs
and impact investors:
• We promote community centric social enterprises to
create impact in remote and underserved geographies
• We actively seek and promote social innovation and
collaborative partnerships in making larger impact
• We provide leadership in ethical and equitable
sustainable development models
Social Entrepreneurship
Social Entrepreneurship
We believe that social entrepreneurship
is the panacea to tackle the dual
challenges of poverty and sustainability
we face with growing concern in India
today.
Inequality has doubled in the
last 20 years and 400 million
people live on less than a dollar
a day.
Rapidly depleting natural
resources means alternative
measures must be adopted
immediately for environmental
sustainability.
