Xiaomi India has unveiled its ambitious Eco-Village initiative, a flagship rural development program aimed at fostering sustainable community transformation through technology-enabled solutions. Launched in partnership with BharatCares, this groundbreaking project extends Xiaomi’s innovation philosophy beyond consumer electronics into rural development.

Xiaomi India Launches Eco-Village Initiative for Rural Growth

The program kicks off with pilot projects in K. Palasandra (Tumakuru) and Sonnenahalli (near Bengaluru), with a third site in Salarpur Kalan, Noida launching next month. These strategically chosen villages, each housing 4,000-8,500 residents, face common challenges like water scarcity and inadequate waste infrastructure.

The initiative directly supports multiple United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including clean water and sanitation, zero hunger, affordable clean energy, and responsible consumption. Each intervention features real-time monitoring through dashboards and mobile feedback tools, ensuring accountability and continuous improvement.

Foundation stone-laying ceremonies on August 4-5, 2025, marked the formal launch, initiating construction of solid waste management centers and water body rejuvenation projects.

Sudhin Mathur, COO of Xiaomi India, emphasized: “The Eco-Village initiative reflects our long-term commitment to India by using our engineering mindset to address real on-ground challenges. This program represents a step toward building stronger, more resilient communities.”

Varun Madan, CPO of Xiaomi India, added that the project “stands as a testament to what can be achieved when we combine compassion with a results-driven mindset.”

Partnership Impact

Collaborating with Shri Mahakal Education and Charitable Trust (BharatCares), Xiaomi leverages local expertise and community connections. Bhomik Shah, Managing Trustee of BharatCares, highlighted their commitment to “empowering communities with innovative solutions, fostering harmony between progress and the planet.”

Scalable Model for India

The pilot villages serve as testing grounds for a replicable rural sustainability model. Success here could expand the initiative nationwide, positioning Xiaomi as a long-term partner in India’s development story while demonstrating how technology companies can drive social impact.
