SKOCH Award, instituted in 2003, is the highest civilian honour and recognises people, projects and institutions that go the extra mile to make India a better nation. The award covers the best of efforts in the area of digital, financial and social inclusion. It encompasses the best of governance, inclusive growth, excellence in technology and applications, change management, corporate leadership, corporate governance, citizen service delivery, capacity building, empowerment and other such softer issues that get normally lost in the glamour and glitz of industry-sponsored or advertising focussed jamborees.
