Going beyond academics, Entrepreneur Shivam Joshi proved his mettle

Entrepreneur at 18 & a Corporate Trainer at 19 – Shivam’s story will leave you in awe. He’s shown outstanding intelligibility in choosing and pursuing a career of his choice. His determination to pursue his own path when students his age were attending 12 hours of non-stop coaching to crack IIT JEE, his logic & statistics were in place. At 17 he knew that out of about 12 lac students appearing for IIT JEE, approximately 10 thousand would crack it. While the first few thousands would get admission in colleges and courses of their choice, rest would settle for courses and colleges depending on availability of seats.

Same will be the story of students who won’t crack IIT and take admission in sundry colleges and courses they never considered. Shivam knew at that young age that a high pay package, high flying job, Ivy colleges can’t disillusion him. He knew what he wanted and this focus drove him to pave his own path and pursue his own dreams.

He is a winner of Kerala Hackathon 2020 for rural area development, and also Ambassador of IEEE Rising Stars Conference, USA.
