Mindspace REIT & Nirmaan.Org To Empower Youth Through Skilling & Employment initiatives

Mindspace Business Parks REIT has partnered with Nirmaan.Org to provide essential skills and empowering individuals for gainful employment. This collaboration which launched as a pilot project in April 2024, has already seen significant success, with 480 participants enrolled to date. By March 2025, the initiative aims to train over 1,000 youth across the Telangana State. Under the ‘Hunar Prayaas’ initiative, Mindspace REIT has sponsored four training centers across Secunderabad, Chandanagar, SD Road, and Suraram. These centers focus on upskilling individuals, who will then have the opportunity to seek employment within Mindspace REIT, other business verticals of the K Raheja Corp group and even external corporate partners. 

The ‘Hunar Prayaas’ initiative provides participants with comprehensive training, counselling and placement services, offering a diverse selection of career skills. Nirmaan.org has community mobilisers who identify the right beneficiaries for each of the programmes, ensuring that the participants are well-suited for the training they receive. Participants can choose from various fields, including electrician work, solar PV installation, full-stack Java development, data analytics, food & beverage, retail, IT expertise, and others.

Shrawan Kumar Gone, COO – AP and Telangana, K Raheja Corp, said, "Skilling and youth empowerment are powerful tools for creating community transformation, and they align perfectly with the core values of Mindspace REIT. Through our collaboration with Nirmaan.Org, we’re not only investing in the future of the youth, but also in the broader development of our communities. We believe that by providing equitable access to education and vocational training, we can drive inclusive growth and strengthen the social fabric of our nation. This initiative symbolises our commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen, aiming for sustainable, long-term impact that uplifts both individuals and the society as a whole."

Mayur Patnala, Founder and CEO, Nirmaan Organisation, added, “Partnering with Mindspace REIT marks a crucial step in tackling the deep-rooted challenges of skill development and employment. Our shared vision is to equip underserved communities with tangible opportunities that unlock potential and pave the way for sustainable livelihoods. We envision this collaboration to help build pathways to self-reliance and inclusivity, ensuring every young person has a fair shot at a brighter future. Together, we aim to create an environment where the impact is real, measurable, and transforms lives for generations to come."
