Chitrika-SVP India Partnership

Chitrika is grateful for the ongoing support of Social Venture Partners to build an enabling ecosystem for collective gain of 10,000 artisan households. Getting insights, networking and funding from SVP partners has helped Chitrika fast track its progress. Mr. Paparao has constantly pushed Chitrika to set higher targets. Our current Lead Partners Mr. Venkat Ramana and Ms. Deepika Reddy are helping us set up marketing channels and raise working capital for handloom weavers. It has been a pleasure working with SVP and we look forward to strengthening this partnership further for the benefit of Indian artisans.
