Sudheendra Chilappagari (24), a native of Karimnagar and co-founder of a start-up firm Belong.co, has been named in the Forbes 2017 ‘30 Under Asia 30 List’. Forbes 30 Under Asia 30, which is a list issued annually by Forbes magazine, recognises the brightest young minds. Mr. Sudheendra started the Belong.co along with his senior Vijay Sharma, friends Saiteja Veera and Rishab Kaul providing employment to over 100 youth. Manohara Rao, a librarian in government junior college in the district, was excited to know about that his son’s name was included in the Forbes magazine list. Mr. Sudheendra, who is presently camping in Malayasia, told The Hindu on Saturday “I am honoured and humbled by Forbes 30 Under Asia 30 recognition and shared the recognition with my partners”.
