Sumeru's concept of weaving business with social consciousness draws its inspiration from the teachings of His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Sri Sri, an internationally renowned spiritual leader and humanitarian, is the founder of the Art of Living Foundation and the International Association for Human Values.
An activist and a visionary, Sri Sri's initiatives have impacted more than 300 million people in 152 countries worldwide. His passion for the cause of development, and his unique ability to combine idealism with reality sets him apart.
Sri Sri is also the inspiration behind the annual "Ethics in Business - Corporate Culture & Spirituality" symposium, primarily sponsored by Sumeru. The symposium brings together business, academic and spiritual leaders to initiate a dialog on the importance of balancing business with ethics and social responsibility.
