Re- set up of the Lab in Hyderabad

First Batch of YIF Programme came to a formal closure on 19th July, 2012. On receiving job offers from Microsoft, the entire team viSparsh has now shifted to Hyderabad, India. Although, viSparsh was only a part of the 8 months long internship programme at YIF, the team now plans to take it forward in the city of Nawabs. Due to the relocation, the entire lab is still in the process of shifting and we soon hope to start our work of making technology reach to the people in need.

We also have received tremendous support from Dr. Pramath Raj Sinha (Founding Dean, ISB) who was present in the town for the YIFP Hyderabad Chapter meet.
