Speaking at the inaugration, Mr. Ajay Durrani, Managing Director, Covestro (India) said, “At Covestro, we truly believe that education is fundamental right and it should be available to all. Our vision for Brighter World Lab is to ignite scientific interest in children so that they can learn through discovery and connect scientific knowledge of text book to the real world. We realized that setting up good infrastructure is not guaranteed enough that it will have a direct academic benefit on students in government schools and thus the whole idea of project Brighther World Lab has derived because we feel that there is a vast difference between reading from a text book and experiencing it first-hand.”

“We at Arch Development Foundation, believe that each child deserves opportuites and exposure in order to showcase their talent and that’s were the whole idea of Brighter World Lab came into existence. With Brighter World Labs, we tend to create projects which can enrich the world in a brighter way.
