ReachIvy: A one-stop shop for education overseas

Vibha Kagzi worked with a San Francisco-based hedge fund, Indusino that was investing in the Indian capital markets. She established their office in India and invested across the spectrum of Indian equities. Her professional experience spans finance, fashion, media and public relations. She has also worked in New York in asset management.

However, Kagzi was extremely passionate about education and believes that it is the ultimate social equalizer. Her passion for education and her own journey of studying abroad drove her towards guiding students and helping them achieve their goals. She launched Reach Education Pvt Ltd (ReachIvy www.reachIvy.com) in 2011.

An MBA from the Harvard Business School and a Bachelor of Science from Carnegie Mellon University, Kagzi shares her entrepreneurial journey with Baishali Mukherjee.
