Enabler - Anubhuti Mittal

Anubhuti Mittal is a mediator between two unlikely parties: corporates and visually-impaired people who want work.

Anubhuti is 35-year old MBA from Allahabad University' and former assistant vice-president (human resources) at GE.

She works as the 'missing link' between the corporate world and the differently-abled and has placed people at organisations such as IBM-Daksh, Pepsi, Genesis PR, TVB Marketing, Impact R&D.

Anubhuti sees economic sense in employing the disabled. “India has over 70 million disabled people. Assuming skilled workers form 10 per cent of this population, that’s still a huge alternative talent pool.”

In recognition of her efforts, she was presented with the Helen Keller Special Award.
