At Lakshya, we set ourselves an aim to create an environment and nurture a culture which attracts best of the talent into teaching and innovating in the process of education deliverance. Working on this philosophy, Lakshya, grew into a 150 member team and with presence in Chandigarh, Panchkula, Patiala and Bathinda. These are the motivated individuals who left their cushy jobs in NVDIA, Oracle, TCS etc. to become TEACHERS BY CHOICE and to innovate with Lakshya. Lakshya today has successfully groomed extremely passionate leaders who are now taking charge of spreading the awesomeness of Lakshya.Now, with clear understanding of knowledge dynamics, we are passionately working on an extensive technology platform - Vedantu. Vedantu aims to disrupt Education by democratizing Knowledge. We the founders are a perfect combination of Teachers and Hackers, who have personally taught and mentored more than students between them and have created scalable web products reaching million of users. Vedantu is conceptualized with an aim to make \'Quality Education Accessible\'. Our vision is to create a \'Knowledge Network\' where a learner and a learned can be connected - anytime, anywhere.I am extremely passionate about entrepreneurship and I love to remain in touch with young entrepreneurs who are working hard towards realizing their dreams. Many of them are still in colleges and have been my students during their K12 education days. I love to mentor them to the best of my knowledge and from my own experiences of entrepreneurial journey.
