About the Book: Infinite Vision
In 1976, Dr. Govindappa Venkataswamy founded Aravind, an eleven bed eye clinic
in South India, with no money, business plan or safety net. Dr. V was 58 years
old at the time and over the next three decades his humble clinic would defy the
odds to become the largest provider of eye care in the world. Aravind has now
treated over 32 million patients and performed over 4 million surgeries, the
majority for free. Its business model is emulated everywhere from Tanzania to
the United States and a case study on Aravinds work is mandatory reading for
every MBA student at Harvard
