Give that information disclosure is not rapid enough or transparent in India, this writer says there are probably more Satyams out there in India's listed companies. He finds that the company's outside auditors, its Board with Krishna Palepu, a Harvard Business School Professor, and Vinod Dham one of the brains behind the Intel Pentium chip, and stock exchange regulators, all failed to exercize the due diligence and supervision that they were expected to perform. Only outside institutional investors acted and forced the company chairman to make the disclosures about its practices.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
