Former GE South Asia CEO invests in Yearbook Canvas
Former General Electric South Asia CEO Nandkumar Dhekne recently invested an undisclosed in yearbook publishing startup Yearbook Canvas.
The startup plans to utilise the capital raised for talent acquisition, strengthening its technology platform and expanding globally.
Mr. Dhenke said, “When I reached the final frontier of my life – retirement, I was driven by some of my old memories in turn giving me a sense of deep nostalgia. It is often said that ‘in the end, life is not measured by the number in your bank account, but the memories we create.’ And I truly felt it at this stage of my life. In a world that is changing faster than ever, I wished if there was a way I could hold on to my memories so I came across Yearbook Canvas. When I met Surashree to discuss Yearbook Canvas over a cup of coffee, I was fascinated by their concept that I could not miss being a part of it.”
Yearbook Canvas co-founder and COO Abhinav Madavi stated, “I am positive that the new investment would help in expanding our horizons, with improved technology and branding. We publish Yearbooks that fill the heart of our clients with joy. We want this experience for everyone to have.” In order to beat the lockdown blues, Yearbook Canvas also came in with their Corporate memory book – the CorpSaga and benefited its customers like Royal Canin, Madura Microfinance, and Capgemini.”
