Mr Abhishek Sinha runs an organisation that ensures financial inclusion through branchless banking. He grew this business to span nine countries and fifteen operators. He started Eko with a vision to promote mobile phones as a financial identity for people at the bottom of the pyramid. Eko leverages existing retail shops, telecom connectivity and banking infrastructure to extend branchless banking services to the common man. Eko also partners with institutions to offer payment, cash collection and disbursal services.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
