Manoj Swarup on Turning Memory Into a Movement with Life Index

So I lost my mother four years ago to COVID and cancer. And that's where I started pondering upon, what do we do? Now she's gone. She's done so much for me for 40 years. What am I giving her in return? Taking care of her while she was going through the cancer and COVID? I thought it wasn't enough. So I came back and I said, let's put up a statue in a town where she grew up.

And I said, but then over a period of time, generations will pass by. Will they ever know or will they ever get to know our story? We scraped the idea. And I said, let's put up a bench and let's put up a bench in the UK in a park. But then you have a name out there. How many people really read that name? So I said, no, we're not doing that. Then I thought, let's do something very unique.

You see the rich and famous kings and the queens and the president and prime ministers, they're always remembered even after they die. Bethany can find information. I wanted to make sure that my mom's details are remaining forever so that my next generations can get to know of them. It was not about the world. It was more about my next generations.

So the entire thing was more about getting the platform up and running. So I threw a very basic thing to begin with. I made it on my own. Once I got that up and running, then I went out to people talking to them about it. Once they got on board, I realized there's a lot of market for it. And then we thought we had a lot of people come back and said, try doing it on social media.
