In a landmark move to empower underprivileged youth in Bengaluru with future-ready BFSI skills, Apexon India Private Limited has joined hands with The Ma Foi Foundation to launch the 'Ahaan Vocational Centre: BFSI' at Don Bosco College, K.R. Puram. Designed to equip students in the city with industry-aligned training, life skills, and career readiness in the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance sector, the flagship initiative aims to empower 220 underprivileged final-year graduates with BFSI employability skills in its Phase 1. With a strong focus on gender inclusion, targeting 60% female enrolment, the programme reflects both organizations' commitment to advancing women's participation in the BFSI sector and promoting equitable access to career opportunities.
The program offers a comprehensive approach to student development, integrating practical training with hands-on experiences and real-world industry exposure. Participants benefit from expert-led workshops, internships, and personalized guidance, enabling them to build essential professional competencies, enhance problem-solving abilities, and develop the confidence needed to navigate the demands of the BFSI sector successfully.
The launch brought together senior leaders from Apexon India Private Limited and The Ma Foi Foundation, along with partners, college dignitaries, and participating students. Apexon, a digital-first technology services firm, leverages its expertise to accelerate business transformation and deliver human-centric digital experiences, while The Ma Foi Foundation, a non-profit organization, is dedicated to skill development and enhancing employability. Together, the two organizations aim to empower underprivileged youth with industry-relevant skills, creating meaningful career opportunities and fostering long-term economic growth.
Speaking at the launch, Vinu Venkatesh, Global CFO & Chief Administrative Officer at Apexon, said, "Through this partnership, Apexon reaffirms its commitment to enabling youth employability and driving meaningful community impact.
