Today we have with us Uma and Puneeth.
Uma is the mother of two precious kids (after whom their brand name was coined), a boy and a girl. She is the founder of Thasvi, an Indian Montessori toy brand. When she began to research about the Montessori method of education, she learnt that there was a lack of developmental toys in India that were safe for children. With the help of her husband, Puneeth decided to launch Thasvi. Thasvi is a home grown venture dedicated to providing high quality, child safe wooden toys.
Highlights of the Talk:
- Challenges they faced which made them to start Thasvi
