Saskia Rysenbry
Sathyam Project
As a serial social entrepreneur Saskia Rysenbry always asks herself the same question: “How can I apply design thinking as a driver for social change?”
From building 'income generation businesses' in India and Laos, to co-founding an innovative and sustainable textile supplier, her experience spans visual design, business development and growth, branding and web design. She's lived all over the world and has spent the past 7 years working remotely.
In 2014, she founded the Sathyam Project to generate long-lasting, sustainable income that covers the education costs and changes the trajectory of disadvantaged girls in India.
