Mr Sandeep Patel, the founder of NEPRA, is a social entrepreneur who has over a decade of experience in the waste management and recycling sector. He realised that the Indian Dry Waste management Sector was complex with several stakeholders, a large share being that of the informal sector. Understanding the needs of the sector he developed an inclusive business model which helped bring all the stakeholders onto one platform. Maintaining the core focus on People, Process and Infrastructure, he aligned the organisation to the sustainable development goals (SDGs) by the United Nations, COP26 targets and various mandates around waste management which gave a strong push to NEPRAs business model.
