Bharath Shankar — CEO

As the Chief Business Officer at Yocket, I oversee all business verticals with a mission to revolutionize the study abroad experience. Yocket is not just a counseling platform—it is a technology-driven ecosystem that supports students through every stage of their journey, from shortlisting universities to securing admits, preparing for tests, arranging finances, and navigating visas. We offer expert mentoring, AI-powered university recommendations, test prep for SAT, GRE, and GMAT, and a thriving student community—all aimed at making international education more accessible and efficient. My career has been defined by creating high-impact educational solutions. I founded a personalized tutoring center focused on quality education at scale, then played a key role in launching and managing India operations for Knod, a global education startup headquartered in the USA. This experience expanded my understanding of skills-based education and international learning models. Following that, I joined the Core leadership team at uFaber Edutech, an innovative hyper personalized learning company, led multiple business lines from 0 to managing a PnL of 10mil$ and a team of over 300 folks. Beyond my professional role, I am an active advisor, helping businesses across sectors go through their 0-1 process and scale effectively. My qualification from the Stanford GSB - Innovation and Entrepreneurship certificate program has further strengthened my expertise in building transformative, student-centric educational products.
