The Brigade Group's visionary philanthropy aligns with our Trust’s deep commitment to delivering high-quality education and empowering students to reach their full potential. With their support, the 'Library by Brigade' in our Bengaluru campus and the Brigade School of Business at the upcoming Mysuru campus will create spaces for intellectual endeavours and produce future leaders.”

Mr. M.R. Jaishankar, Lifetime Trustee, Brigade Foundation, said, “Education has been a cornerstone of our philanthropic endeavours for over 20 years, ever since we established three ‘The Brigade Schools’ in Bengaluru. This collaboration is a testament to our dedication to foster a vibrant educational ecosystem that benefits academia. These libraries provide a wealth of knowledge and resources, which will inspire future generations of leaders and innovators.”

Dr. M.P. Shyam, President, Rashtreeya Sikshana Samithi Trust (RSST is the sponsoring body of RV University), said: “I commend the Brigade Foundation and in particular, its Lifetime Trustee, Mr. M.R. Jaishankar for their support to RV University. Education requires significant investments and also funding by corporates under CSR. Universities exist in perpetuity. Thousands of students, parents, distinguished visitors to the campus will remember and applaud this extraordinary act of corporate philanthropy on the part of Brigade Group.”

The library’s contemporary design includes research labs, maker spaces, solo and group study pods, an amphitheatre, and interactive reading areas. Additionally, it offers an expansive digital repository with access to top academic databases like EBSCO, JSTOR, and IEEE, alongside e-books, journals, and multimedia resources.

This project symbolises RV University’s progressive approach to education, while highlighting the importance of public-private partnerships in shaping the future of learning.
