This IIT Alumnus Is Building India’s First Impact Social Network Sociocharge

New Delhi, 6th July 2021: Can you imagine how incredible it would be if we lived in a world where individuals were connected to each other over a shared purpose? How transformative the result if our youth became key stakeholders in solving pressing business-social challenges and creating a more equitable tomorrow? Would it not be a better world then if businesses were able to ingrain purpose in their value chain and boost profits while positively impacting communities around them?

Finally, wouldn’t it be awesome to have a platform where you could connect and get rewarded for working to advance the cause you feel most passionately about?

Hemant Shrivastava, an alumnus of IIT Kharagpur and Purdue University, had this vision when he founded Sociocharge in 2018. He realized that an increasing number of people feel the need to contribute something positive through their work. A huge believer in leading with a purpose to bring fulfilment and create change, Hemant is a passion-filled advocate of the role of entrepreneurs and passionate individuals in creating sustainable changes. He believes purpose is the primary driver of the new age economy and therefore creating a platform where people with a shared purpose can experience convergence would be transformative.

India’s First Purpose Led Social Network 

Unlike Facebook, which connects friends and family, unlike Linkedin which connects people to possible career opportunities or Instagram which is a platform for content sharing, Sociocharge helps create communities and networks on the basis of purpose alignment.

By uniting people with shared business ambition, Sociocharge becomes the bridge where what was only an idea turns into an enterprise in the quickest possible time frame. The pressing need for a social network focused on building collaborative communities around a shared goal stands fulfilled with the emergence of Sociocharge.

Business and Purpose Connect

“The companies that are emerging as leaders in the new economy are truly redesigning every aspect of their business around purpose.”

The word “Purpose Economy” was coined by Aaron Hurst to describe the new environment and set of ways in which people and businesses are focused on producing value and to identify the basis for innovation and growth; the desire for people to find more purpose in their lives.

Businesses must today convey a sense of purpose in relation to a variety of environmental, social, and economic challenges to survive in today’s hyper-competitive marketplace. Cultivating purpose has a plethora of benefits for employee well-being, engagement and long-term business success.

Not just employees but today’s conscious customers want to invest in and support companies that are creating value and positive change in the world.

Sociocharge Brand Solutions is enabling businesses to establish a transformative relationship with their communities and fundamentally based on shared purpose.
