Nagarro rolled out an annual 'Nagarro Talent Search' program to sponsor 100-120 students from economically backward sections every year
GURGAON, India, Sept. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Nagarro, one of the leading IT consulting and services companies in the country, recently started an educational initiative, the Nagarro Talent Search Examination (NTSE), to support students belonging to economically weaker sections of the society. Through this initiative, this year, Nagarro awarded NTS scholarships to 120 students. These bright minds were picked from around 15 schools, adopted by Nagarro in the Palwal district of Haryana, India.
The first examination of the program was conducted on August 11, 2019. Around 600 students from Class 6th to 11th of various schools in Palwal took the test. The top 20% of students (120 of the 600) were awarded with a scholarship of 1 year by Nagarro. These children visited the Nagarro Gurugram office with their parents, where each one was awarded with a merit certificate.
