Celebrating 'End Digital Poverty Day' 2024
Today marks 'End Digital Poverty Day', a significant occasion hosted by the Digital Poverty Alliance (DPA) to raise awareness and drive action towards eliminating digital poverty by 2030.
When Praveen Karadiguddi won “The Innovation Award '' at the LDC Top 50 Business Entrepreneurs of the UK in 2021, he said "I built Scrumconnect with a vision to bring people together so they could learn and unlearn". This speaks volumes about his ambition & drive and still echoes today as the company charts its course towards a brighter future.
In the recent past Scrumconnect has seen exceptional growth, consistently delivering beyond expectations. It has carved its niche in the tech industry, boasting collaborations with over 25% of the top 75 government agencies in the UK. With a portfolio of over 64 different services rendered, Scrumconnect has reached an astounding 50 million people across the country.
But the company's impact extends beyond just numbers. Scrumconnect, under Karadiguddi's leadership, has saved the UK government an impressive 25 million pounds. It's clear that the firm's focus on innovation and efficiency is not just boosting its bottom line, but also serving the public good.
Recently, LDC revisited Karadiguddi's journey with a "Where are they now?" feature, placing the spotlight on his entrepreneurial trajectory since his recognition in 2021. The magnifying glass was once again pointed at the Scrumconnect chief, not just for his exceptional leadership, but also for how he has fostered the Scrumconnect spirit amidst the rapid company growth.
As he tells it, "We have a lot of new people joining the business, and I want to maintain our Scrumconnect spirit." This speaks to his commitment to nurturing a culture of learning and unlearning, of growing together and constantly adapting as the times dictate.
Embodying the ethos of using technology for good, Scrumconnect is on an upward trajectory. Karadiguddi's emphasis on creating positive societal impacts using technology is what sets Scrumconnect apart, as they rise to the challenges of our rapidly changing world. His vision of harnessing technology to create a positive societal impact remains the company's guiding beacon.
Under Praveen’s remarkable leadership, Scrumconnect is not merely a player in the tech industry. It is a trailblazer, marking the path for how technology can and should be utilized for the greater good.
Looking towards the future, it is clear that Scrumconnect, with its unwavering commitment to innovation and its 'learn and unlearn' philosophy, will continue to revolutionize the way we think about technology. In a rapidly evolving world, the Scrumconnect spirit ensures that it remains ahead of the curve, ever-ready to meet new challenges head-on.
In summary, Praveen Karadiguddi's Scrumconnect is more than a success story—it's a testament to how innovation, technology, and a deep-seated commitment to societal impact can converge to create lasting change. #techforgood, indeed
