Hyderabad: 1M1B (One Million for One Billion) Foundation and Salesforce, a global leader in CRM, have joined hands to build the first physical centre of 1M1B Green Skills Academy in Hyderabad. The partnership aims to train 10 lakh youth from Telangana by 2030, and the top 10 youth will be given an opportunity every year to showcase their work at the annual 1M1B Summit at the United Nations in New York.

Earlier this year, 1M1B Foundation had signed a MoU with the Telangana department of Information Technology, Electronics & Communications, to form the 1M1B Green Skills Academy. The Academy will accelerate the adoption of green skills amongst the college youth in the state of Telangana through the Telangana Academy for Skill and Knowledge (TASK).
