Hi-Kalpaa CEO Ms.Shalini Sharma Honoured with the Women Changemaker Award 2026

Hi-Kalpaa Preschool is proud to share a significant milestone in its journey of shaping meaningful early childhood experiences. Ms. Shalini Sharma, CEO of Hi-Kalpaa Preschool, has been honoured with the prestigious Women Changemaker Award 2026 at the Women Changemaker Summit & Awards – South Edition, held on 23rd May 2026 at Ramada by Wyndham, Yelahanka, Bangalore.

Presented by She Inspire Magazine and Hypedge Group, the Women Changemaker Summit & Awards is a distinguished national platform that celebrates women who are driving impact, influencing change, and leading with purpose across industries. The recognition reflects Ms. Shalini Sharma’s contribution to the field of education, her entrepreneurial leadership, and her commitment to building a progressive, child-centric learning ecosystem through Hi-Kalpaa.

The award was presented by renowned actress, author, and certified nutritionist Vaishnavi Macdonald, making the occasion all the more memorable. More than a personal honour, this recognition represents a larger vision—one that places children, learning, and meaningful transformation at the heart of education.

Under Ms. Shalini Sharma’s leadership, Hi-Kalpaa has grown with a clear and thoughtful purpose: to reimagine early years education through experiential learning, nurturing spaces, and a strong foundation for lifelong growth. Beyond building a progressive preschool ecosystem, her journey reflects the spirit of a true changemaker—one who leads with vision, creates with purpose, and inspires other women to pursue growth with confidence. Through her work, she continues to champion not just meaningful learning for children, but also the idea that women can lead, build, and create lasting impact in their own unique ways.

Speaking about the recognition, Ms. Shalini Sharma shared that the award is a reflection of the trust, encouragement, and collective effort of everyone who has been part of the Hi-Kalpaa journey—its children, parents, educators, and team members. It is also a reminder of the responsibility that comes with leading in a space as foundational as early childhood education.

For Hi-Kalpaa, this honour is both a proud moment and a meaningful affirmation of its vision. It reinforces the belief that education in the early years has the power to shape not only individual futures, but stronger communities and a more thoughtful world.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to She Inspire Magazine and Hypedge Group for this recognition. As Hi-Kalpaa continues its journey, this milestone stands as a celebration of purpose-led leadership, women creating impact, and the enduring value of education that truly makes a difference.
