From being raised in low-income rent houses to becoming an influential real estate developer of well thought-out communities, Athaide has brought a fresh breath of technocratic discipline to a once very dysfunctional and unpredictable world of the Indian real estate industry. At an early age of twenty and as the managing director of St. Angeloís Professional Education, Agnelorajesh Athaide started his IT business within the slums in India, teaching computer learning courses in poor neighbourhoods where poverty and illiteracy compounded with a lack of understanding presented an obstacle to growth. He soon realized that most students would be unable to afford what he was offering. Hence he partnered with a small credit co-op bank to create an educational loan facility for students at a time when the concept of educational loans for private coursework did not exist.
This initiative proved to be very successful and helped many more students become employable resulting in empowering many under privileged communities. As a pioneer and visionary who accurately predicted the Indian IT and real Estate Boom, Athaide shares a candid yet a fresh insight into the world of the technological digital age revolution and how anyone with a keen sense of self-direction and perseverance can make it in developing and underdeveloped societies.view less
