Drishtee: Connecting India Village by Village

URL: 	http://drishtee.com/

Description: 	Drishtee is an organizational platform for developing 
IT enabled services to rural and semi-urban populations through the 
usage of state-of-the-art software. The services it enables include 
access to government programs and benefits, market related 
information, and private information exchanges and transactions. 
Using a tiered franchise and partnership model, Drishtee is capable 
of enabling the creation of approximately 50,000 Information Kiosks 
all over India within a span of six years. These kiosks would 
potentially serve a market of 500 million people, with aggregate 
discretionary purchasing power of Rs. 100 billion (Rs. 10,000 
crores). In less than two years, Drishtee has successfully 
demonstrated its concept in over 90 kiosks across five Indian states.
