Cogitare Strategists was conceptualized by its founders based on a shared passion for learning and development. Santhosh and Pravasi first crossed paths as members of Ernst & Young’s Global Learning Team, where they collaborated on high-impact learning initiatives for global audiences. Their shared experiences and deep expertise in corporate training inspired them to create a firm that empowers organizations with smarter, more effective learning solutions.
