Venkat Kishore Chikkala, founder of VK Global Ventures Pvt. Ltd., is empowering students, job seekers, and young professionals across India through his ventures in education, international recruitment, construction, interiors, and F&B. Operating from Visakhapatnam, his mission-driven companies are building real-world global career pathways — from hospitality classrooms to international kitchens.


In a world where many chase trends and short-term gains, Venkat Kishore Chikkala is steadily building a diversified legacy — one that empowers small-town Indian talent with access to global opportunities. As the founder and managing director of VK Global Ventures Pvt. Ltd., Chikkala has emerged as a dynamic entrepreneur whose impact spans education, hospitality, international recruitment, construction, interior materials, and the restaurant industry across India and Southeast Asia.

Creating Career Pathways through Education
Chikkala’s flagship initiative, IIHAM – Integral Institute of Hospitality & Aviation Management, is an internationally aligned training college based in Visakhapatnam. Affiliated with CTH UK, the institute offers diploma programs in hospitality and aviation, and is recognized for its “Study in India, Intern Abroad” model.

Through IIHAM, students from Andhra Pradesh and beyond are gaining paid internship opportunities in top hospitality destinations like Malaysia, Dubai, and Singapore — with monthly stipends, accommodation, and real-world experience.

A Legacy in the Making
All of Chikkala’s companies are now being consolidated under VK Global Ventures Pvt. Ltd., with plans to list on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). His mission is not only to build successful ventures but to create a long-lasting legacy that can be carried forward by the next generation of his family, including both his son and nephew.

“I believe in building value, not just valuation,” says Chikkala. “My goal is to create platforms that truly change lives — through training, jobs, entrepreneurship, and global exposure.”
