Philosophy & Resolve

No business can function in a vacuum. There is the society at large with which it engages in innumerable transactions; the more involved the engagement, the better its qualitative and quantitative effect on the business. Aware of this debt to society, a successful corporate like Videocon is committed to fulfilling its obligations: both as providers of outstanding products as well as sterling community initiatives.

They include, among others, a first-rate academic haven for the high-school education of underprivileged girls and a 100% world-class, charitable hospital specializing in cancer and heart surgery for the benefit of society’s marginalised sections. Videocon’s deep-rooted commitment to environment conservation translates into process improvements that help recycle CRT glass, curb carbon emissions and other pollutants. Among others, the group’s India glass plant has supported a large-scale initiative like the plantation of over 2,00,000 teak trees.

Apart from material support, society needs spirit; that vital ingredient that makes the difference between living life and merely existing. Videocon is inspired heavily by the uplifting nature of sports; its power to generate mass passion, where innumerable hearts throb as in unison; its ability to draw people together irrespective of differences in race, religion, gender or caste. Unity of spirit and purpose is ultimately what builds bridges between diverse cultures. This is the core belief of a group that has operations spread over a cross-cultural milieu worldwide. Videocon supports mass sports for another reason: at the heart of sports is fair play, a virtue that enjoys exalted status among values cherished by Videocon.

The group’s sponsorship of cricketing events across the globe underlies its commitment and passion for sports as well as its goal to uplift the spirits of a global audience. Videocon has not forgotten the grassroots either; the Videocon School of Cricket launched in Kolkata under the guidance of former India captain, Saurav Ganguly, aims to inspire budding cricketers in the age group of 10 to 17 years to greater heights.
