ENTREPRENEUR STORY

        After completing her studies she started Outline India in September 2012. She started with no contacts and about 2 lakh in her bank account and a laptop. Within three months her laptop was damaged and she thought the world come crumbling down. At that time she realized that small data was in the bigger scheme of things.

        Then she worked hard and After three months into outlines, a development consulting firm in Bombay offered to buy the start-up and make her head of research there. But that is not enough for Prerna.

       She worked hard and within a couple of months, she started another start-up. It is Track Your Metrics. It is a self-reporting tool that seeks to enable NGOs and founders to build metrics, monitor projects, and measure the impact of their works at 0 unit cost. It gave more success. 

       In the last 8 years, She worked on developing a strong presence of outline India across 9000 villages in 26 states and interviewing over 4 million stakeholders. The company has undertaken over 70 projects across 24 states and union territories and collected data in over 4000 locations.

Inspiration is everywhere. I have seen the animation Kung Fu Panda ten times and believe in its massage.
