The company decided to break the mould of anniversary celebrations and used the occasion to pick broom to sweep footpath in Gurgaon and do some public service. Company believes that “Swachh Bharat” can get much faster if we celebrate by doing such public services.
New Delhi, August 17, 2016: It has been 7 years since Knowlarity Communications, the largest cloud telephony platform in emerging markets started on the path to revolutionize enterprise communication with its products. This 17th of August, Knowlarity completed 7 years of establishment, and the occasion was celebrated in grand style with week-long celebrations that culminated into “Swachh Bharat” activities.
The employees went through a week long fun activities of indoor games and Olympics. However, on the weekend, the employees were divided into 2 teams. The first one went to Cyberhub and decided to clean up the footpath. The footpath was littered with garbage and people used to walk down on the road creating a traffic problem. After the day long cleaning efforts and some painting, it looks cleaned and people started using it. The team B went to public school and cleaned up the parks and benches.
Knowlarity’s consumers were also showered with various gifts. Committing itself to customer-first approach of organization building, the company send handwritten notes to the customers leading to quite a bit of positive customer responses on the social media. The company decided to indulge and offer free services for 7 months to anyone who signed up on 17th September.
