These UT Sophomores Started a Company That Incentivizes Sustainability

Inspiration: discussions among friends at Kinsolving that evolved into the student-run startup company Gazelle Ecosolutions. It’s taken Mihir Bendre, along with sophomores Amod Daherkar and Siddharth Thakur, across the globe, from the national Fowler Global Social Innovation Challenge competition in San Diego to six weeks of intensive research and field testing in Botswana.
