[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Round Table India was first an International organisation founded by Louis Marchesi, a young member of Norwich Rotary Club who felt a need existed for a club where the young business men of the town could gather, on a regular basis where they could exchange ideas, learn from the experiences of their colleagues and play a collective part in the civic life of Norwich. Round Table proved it had international appeal with the first overseas Table formed in Copenhagen in 1936. Today there are about 900 Tables with a membership of around 10,000.

John Barton was instrumental in setting up the 1st Round Table in India. The concept of National Project for Round Table India was introduced in 1992. Currently, in Round Table India, there are more than 200 Tables located in 76 cities and towns, comprising of businessmen, entrepreneurs, technocrats and professionals. Round Table India is divided into 11 Areas, which have their own Area Board to administer them.
