Jolt Media's latest work with an exciting new tech start-up in the social entrepreneurship space! This is a launch film for our client Kaushal Circle, an app for vocationally trained students in India to find job opportunities through professional networking. This is important, because these students have very little mentorship and possibility of networking and growth otherwise. It's a bilingual app and we hope it does very well and reaches those millions of Indian youth who are talented and hungry to prove themselves.

Failure and unforeseen challenges are a big part of running a startup. But Wadhwani Foundation's Advantage Program acts as a guide and mentor during those tough times. Jolt Media followed the journey of one such entrepreneur who was assisted by WF's Advantage Program. For this case study, we asked Varun Gupta, Founder & CEO of Pro Nature Organics what his learnings have been and what he did to overcome the challenges faced by him. It's an inspiring journey, with much to learn from!

A large part of Jolt Media's work is with non profits, and here's something to know about the big, bad world of CSR funding.

When the government mandated CSR spending back in 2014, it opened the floodgates for funding for non-profits in need. But it also created an opportunity for shrewd firms looking to be the middlemen in the interaction between the corporate and social sector

Music to comfort - a great way to raise funds for refugee children. Listen to "Beautiful Dreamer".

"Moved by this injustice, my dear friend Morley — immensely gifted musician, U.N. Peace Ambassador, golden-hearted human being — set out to buoy the heavy, helpless heart with the universal language of sympathy and consolation: music. She summoned a family of friends to produce Borderless Lullabies — a compilation of twenty songs and spoken-word pieces, with 100% of proceeds benefiting KIND: Kids In Need of Defense, a wonderful nonprofit that partners with pro-bono attorney at law firms and law schools to represent unaccompanied immigrant and refugee children in their deportation proceedings, ensuring that no child stands in court alone."

A reading from “Figuring” with original music by Yo-Yo Ma, a stunning rendition of the 19-century parlor song “Beautiful Dreamer” by Esperanza Spalding, and a family of frie…

Our co-founder Pooja Das Sarkar's work was featured in AdGully. Read about what she has to say:

"It's hard enough to talk about feminism without getting some kind of backlash from people. But it's harder to really look within and check your own privilege even when you are talking about equal rights for women because we form a blind spot about it. Here is where intersectionality comes in - how other parts of one's identity - religion, caste, sexuality or ability also add to the marginalisation that one faces along with one's identity as a woman. The challenge was to explain this in terms that are easy to understand and break down the complexity of the issue without losing the meaning. We hope the "What is Intersectionality" video starts more nuanced conversations around gender and feminism in the Indian context.”

In the latest episode of Scratching the Surface, Vitamin Stree tries to break down the concept of intersectional feminism

The emergence of human-centred design in development communication. Read about BBC Media Action's Radharani Mitra talk about the way they created the "Khoon ka Rishta" campaign through HCD.

One can't talk about design without quoting Steve Jobs: “Design is a funny word. Some people think design is how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works.” Jobs hits the bull’s eye as always. Look at the success of design-driven companies like AirBnB and Pinterest...
