About Marketing @ Udhyam:

The heart of an NGO, the mind of an enterprise and the pace of a startup. Rolled into one, this explains a bit about the kind of organisation (& team) we are.

On the days we are in office (we are a hybrid working organisation with a minimum of two days in office currently) it’s a rocking party with everyone else joining the laughter and the fun.
