Goodera is an Indian software company operating in the area of corporate volunteering and CSR. Founded in 2014, the platform allows organizations to plan, track, and host volunteering activities across in-person, virtual, and hybrid work environments. It also offers tools and resources to support logistics and reporting for these programs.
Funding and History
editIn November 2022, Goodera raised US$10 million in a funding round led by Zoom Ventures, with participation from Elevation Capital, Nexus Venture Partners, Omidyar Network, and Binny Bansal.[1]
The funding was reported as part of broader investor interest in platforms supporting employee engagement, volunteering, and CSR-related software.[2]
Research and Analysis
editGoodera produces the Volunteering Quotient (VQ) Report, a survey-based analysis that examines patterns in employee participation in volunteering, including participation rates and motivations. Media coverage of the report has discussed trends in employee volunteering in India and compared participation levels with global benchmarks.[3]
The company has also been referenced in reporting on nonprofit sector challenges related to technology adoption. Coverage of survey findings has noted that while many nonprofit organizations express interest in using artificial intelligence tools, adoption is often limited by skills and training gaps.[4]
Reports on workplace well-being have used Goodera's industry data to examine how volunteering relates to employee stress and engagement.[5]
Leadership
editGoodera was founded by Abhishek Humbad, who serves as the company’s Chief Executive Officer. Abhishek has been included in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in social entrepreneurship and has been quoted in business and workplace publications on topics related to corporate volunteering and CSR.[6]
Sriram Shankar is a co-founder and serves as Chief Operating Officer. Prior to joining Goodera, he worked in consulting and operations roles and was part of early teams at Indian startups, including Myntra and Digit Insurance.[7]
