Serving an elite clientele, from industry leaders to emerging innovators, it is known for precision-crafted strategy, enduring client loyalty and measurable transformation, bridging B2B and B2C with equal mastery.

- Lakshatras systems licensed to practitioners and platforms on every continent.
- Ankem Infra engines running inside the products of enterprises across more than ten industries.
- Edkem counselling students from every region of the world, without a single commission taken.
- Raya for Change publishing a register of every work it undertakes.
The vision
A conglomerate born in India and counted among the great houses of the world, its reputation resting on what it has built and whom it has served, and its legacy measured, as the Raya sovereigns measured theirs, by what it leaves behind.
Aligned with the United Nations 2030 Agenda: quality education, gender equality and reduced inequalities (SDG 4, 5 and 10).

Our inspiration
Inspired by the vision, leadership and values of the Raya Empire.
The Group takes its standard from a lineage of sovereigns and statesmen, and carries it into enterprise: authority exercised with responsibility, and leadership measured by what it leaves behind.
The standard
Four duties of a sovereign, five centuries old.
“A king should improve the harbours of his country and so encourage its commerce that horses, elephants, precious gems, sandalwood, pearls and other articles are freely imported.”
In the Amuktamalyada, the sovereign of Vijayanagara set down what a ruler owes his realm: commerce to be encouraged, waters to be harnessed, the learned to be honoured and counsel to be kept. Ankem Group claims no crown. It holds itself to his standard, and each of its houses answers to one of his duties.
Presence
A conglomerate without borders.
The Group is built for a world that no longer waits on geography. Its companies serve a clientele that spans continents, time zones and generations: those who build, govern, invest and lead.
Our world
A world of interests, across 10+ industries.
