Google is a company that believes deeply in entrepreneurship. And this is a company that believes deeply in the power of information. We don’t think there’s another organization that combines these two things in a more compelling way than Ashoka.

Ashoka Travel Experiences

Ashoka Travel Experiences have been carefully designed to give you a unique opportunity to spend time with Ashoka’s leading social entrepreneurs. Our Travel Experience includes site visits, problem solving sessions, and discussions with Ashoka Fellows about their country, its social issues, and their innovative projects. Each trip is open to ten participants and we are happy to host groups, business colleagues, adult family members and friends. Travelers must be 15 years or older.

“I am impressed with the deep conviction of the Ashoka Fellows, which is key to overcoming enormous hurdles. Their entrepreneurial skills rival any entrepreneur in the Silicon Valley.”
— Gururaj Deshpande, Founder and Chairman Sycamore Networks


The itinerary, meetings and site visits of Ashoka Travel Experiences have been designed to create an environment for participants to:

• Meet 15 Ashoka Fellows, the leaders in their fields

• Visit innovative systems-changing programs addressing social challenges, and meet the beneficiaries

• Network with business leaders, including local Ashoka Support Network members


• Contribute your experience and knowledge with Fellows for their programs’ sustainability
