Objectives of SPF

2. To develop and implement solutions for large-scale, unstructured societal, educational, and business challenges, including those that are potential threats, by focusing on both symptoms and root causes.
3. To create a dynamically evolving ecosystem comprising curriculum, courses, programs, projects, resources, tools, experts, and support systems that are capable of resisting and remaining unaffected by the past, present, or future forms and effects of colonization—whether external or internal—of the nation, culture, family, or individual, wherever the Company or its subsidiaries are functional.
