About

Genius is equally distributed, opportunities are not. Imagine, getting bright youth from rural areas, youth bereft of any opportunities. And we train them rigorously, get them aspirational jobs, and let them pay for this. See the economic merit of this? I see the social merit of this. Benefitting people from the bottom of the pyramid and at the same time equipping them with a sense of Entrepreneurship and an inclination to use technology and received education in solving REAL problems around them. College education doesn't work, but is there an alternative? Let's build one. If this sounds exciting, let's chat.
