We’re grateful to benevolent organizations who supported us when it mattered most.

Automation Anywhere Software Pvt. Ltd. (AASPL) supported the creation of jobs in Kopargaon, Maharashtra - financially and through in-kind IT hardware. We also collaborate with AASPL on Robotic Process Automation.

Overview

Our model ensures scalability and sustainability by creating real value - not only for shareholders, but for communities we serve. Most of our centres are fully owned by RuralShores; in some locations local partners invest in infrastructure while RuralShores manages the business. The ownership model does not affect the quality or consistency of service delivery.
