At Purple Fest 2025, Tech Mahindra Foundation launched 'The Ability Network' to offer verified information and essential guidance to persons with disabilities and their caregivers. This collaborative initiative aims to tackle the lack of timely support, enhancing dignity and independence for many individuals.

At Purple Fest 2025, Tech Mahindra Foundation, part of the Mahindra Group, introduced 'The Ability Network' (TAN), an initiative designed to provide crucial support for persons with disabilities. The network aims to empower over 70 million individuals in India by offering verified information and guidance.

The initiative is a collaborative effort involving expert partners like Enable India and Nayi Disha. It seeks to address the lack of accessible, on-demand support that has left many with disabilities facing challenges such as discrimination and educational exclusion.

'The Ability Network' will focus initially on individuals with visual, hearing, and intellectual disabilities. The platform, accessible by web and mobile, aims to connect users with experienced providers, ensuring comprehensive community and support for those in need.
