The Company: mDhil.com
mDhil is a social enterprise start-up that creates and distributes original health content for the Indian user.

Our most popular topics include sexual health and women’s health, but we also create great content on diet & nutrition, beauty, lifestyle diseases, exercise, and chronic illnesses. Information is displayed on the website in the form of articles, health tips, images, slideshows, quizzes and videos. Our core users are urban youth (over 23,000 Facebook fans!), but we also cover topics of interest to an older audience.
The company was founded by a Harvard Business School graduate, and you would be joining a small team of bright individuals who have fun while building a great company. Our work has been recognized at venues like TED, Sankalp Mumbai, and the World Bank. If interested, read on…
