Naina Subberwal Batra is the Chairperson and CEO of the AVPN, an organization that’s building a vibrant and high-impact philanthropy community. The social investing ecosystem is growing in leaps and bounds in Asia. However, it’s a continent with the greatest number of natural disasters, and huge amounts of income inequality. AVPN’s mission is to bring together a diverse group of funders to address these many social challenges.

Naina’s leadership over the past 6 years has grown the AVPN membership by more than 4x, and it now encompasses foundations, impact funds, corporations, universities, and governments that are investing money, people, and knowledge into the social sector.
