About WHEF

WHEF is a facilitator, a catalyst that enables Hindus to cooperate and collaborate globally so that market access is facilitated amongst them. WHEF is promoting synergy on frontiers of technologies to promote new entrepreneurship. WHEF is also coordinating efforts to enhance credit availability not only to business, trade and industry but also to support budding entrepreneurs.

“We have received very encouraging response from Hindu communities in our efforts of strengthening economy worldwide. Hindus believe and practice Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam i.e. whole world is one family. WHEF will work to help and support deprived communities around the world”, said Swami Vigyananand.

Economic boom of previous two decades followed by a catastrophic recession of Western economies has placed the entire world into turmoil. Fast growing, developing economies started suffering and experiencing deceleration. The response to these challenges is complex and needs to be addressed outside the current institutional framework and mindsets.

Bhagwan Krishna gave his wisdom in Bhagwad Gita that “Gatasunagatsums cha nanusochanti panditah” – which means “wise-men do not worry of what has gone by and what is going by”. WHEF’s present approach is based on this foundational wisdom i.e. to think in future for the future.

WHEF 2019 invites all Hindu businesspersons, traders, industrialists, bankers, technocrats, economists and professionals to attend and participate in its 7th Annual Economic forum. More details, including registration link, can be obtained from the event website whef2019.wheforum.org
