Samriddh Gupta — Co-Founder
I am a second year student at Ashoka University with a strong interest in entrepreneurship and social impact. My journey has been shaped by hands-on experience across various domains—from business development internships to founding my own venture. As a Business Development Intern at Taproot Academy Sdn. Bhd. and a Process Associate Intern at Han Digital Solutions Pvt. Ltd., I developed skills in strategy, operations, and project management. Building on this, I launched SPEAK Spoken English & Public Speaking Classes, a venture where I independently handled everything from logo design and presentations to conducting sessions, managing finances, communications, and marketing. This solopreneur experience has refined my ability to juggle multiple responsibilities while creating impact. My commitment to education goes beyond my own learning. I volunteered as a teacher at a government primary school, using creative methods to engage students and make education accessible. Having navigated the complex college application process on my own, I was admitted to several prestigious universities. This includes NYU Shanghai with a 65% scholarship, the University of Toronto with a $190K International Scholar Award, and Ashoka University with a full ride. I was also waitlisted at Emory, Amherst, and Colby. Recognizing the challenges faced by students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds, I create content to help aspiring students achieve their goal of receiving a world-class education. Through my guidance, I aim to make the process more accessible and less daunting for others, especially those with limited resources. Outside of academics and entrepreneurship, I am passionate about public speaking and debate. I’ve won a gold medal at IIT Kanpur’s Republic Day Forensics Speech & Debate Tournament in Dramatic Adaptation and was named 'Outstanding Delegate' at IMUN 147.0. On a personal note, I love singing, dancing, sketching, and playing carrom—having won a National Level Gold Medal in the sport. Let’s connect if you share interests in education, entrepreneurship, or social impact, or if you'd like to discuss opportunities to collaborate!
