Jonathan Mazumdar Named 2024 Rainer Arnhold Fellow with the Mulago Foundation

Jonathan Mazumdar, A09, was recently honored to be selected as a 2024 Rainer Arnhold Fellow with the Mulago Foundation, which supports leaders in social impact. As co-founder of a social enterprise and a proud Tufts alum, it's an exciting recognition! Jonathan noted that his time at Tufts, particularly as a student in the Economics Department, was foundational to his career. Over the past 15 years, Jonathan has worked with startups in India, advised African governments on industrialization, and most recently, founded Growth Teams–an organization that partners with governments in developing countries to solve problems that hold back firms, resulting in formal jobs and stronger economies. Their work now spans places like Rwanda and Tanzania, and they recently co-hosted the Growth Summit with the Center for Global Development, convening policymakers to discuss economic growth in developing countries.
