Abhik connects the dots between art, business, philanthropy, and action. Before he started his role as head of Marketing and Communications at Teach For India, he was on a two-year self-discovery sabbatical, spent time at Dasra, an organisation that works with philanthropists and social entrepreneurs to create large-scale social change. Before Dasra, he’d spent a year with the inaugural cohorts of Teach for Bangladesh and Teach for Slovakia. He has also spent a significant part of his career at Britannia and Godrej in the communications, design, and innovation teams, and was in the inaugural cohort of Teach For India. His double life consists of a curious blend of art collector, entrepreneur, and occasional chef, and he has co-founded Dear Imagination, an organisation encouraging dialogue amongst underprivileged children through storytelling and art workshops.
