KLARO’s mission is to drive social impact in business.

We are all about blending purpose with profit to reach stellar outcomes for both organizations and societies.

What we do.

In today’s world, there is urgent need to address social injustice.


We are far behind on reaching the SDGs and the majority of players embracing ESG are focused on ‘E’. At the same time, business is an indispensable force in driving forward social causes.


Amidst this scenario, key challenges emerge for both social organizations and business.

That’s where we step in.

What we do.

We bridge the gap on both fronts:

Social organizations

often lack the strategic acumen, efficiency and systematic approaches necessary for sustainable growth




We provide strategic guidance, structure, and a methodical approach to elevate their impact

For-profit businesses

aiming to integrate social good into their operations often struggle to move this forward due to limited resources




We provide invaluable support to unlock the full potential of these efforts until they are integrated into their model
