About M Akarsh

Hi, If you are an Angel Investor or Venture Capitalist or startup accelerator, please reach out to me.Earlier I have created a platform which connects all the folks those who are determined to go to United states for their Masters & PhD. I created an inspiring ecosystem that we could experience at Stanford if not Harvard, this ecosystem combined with my managerial skills & rules that have put in place resulted in stunning results with the awe-inspiring scores like 337, 337, 335, 335, 335….. out of 340 in GRE test. This platform became full package to study in USA by helping people in crafting their Essays, filling Applications, preparing them for Admission interview, finding Scholarships and even to ace the Visa Interview. So far more than 2000 students got into London School of Business, NYU, CMU, Columbia University etc.…. when I moved to Newyork city for my doctoral studies, people made me realize that even Facebook, Doordash, Elon Musk’s ZIP2 started similar way and changed the way we live forever. There is a startup called LEAPSCHOLAR.COM that raised $75 million for the same service that I provided for free.That's when I realized the power of a simple yet innovative idea. Living in the financial capital of the world, NYC, led me to contemplate the valuation of Wall Street, which is approximately $30 trillion, or the market capitalization of Apple, which is around $3.1 trillion, while the entire GDP of India is about $2.9 trillion. What has gone wrong?My search for answer led me to learn Corporate Finance from Stern Business School of NYU, financial & Capital Markets from Yale University, Entrepreneurship 101 from UCLA, building disruptive ventures from Stanford GSB & Harvard’s Innovative Labs, but my research or learning didn’t stop there, I learned about Asset Management just like I learned about the Hedge fund industry, I went on to attend the Y-Combinator startup school, I am also a big fan of Bloomberg’s David Rubenstein Show.All these erudite insights, coupled with the wealth of knowledge gained from countless books on building disruptive ventures and interactions with countless founders from YC, Stanford GSB, and Harvard's HSB, have shaped me into the founder of a future disruption: ISE. I also built a Foodtech startup, I topped all the classes during my school days, did my graduation at a National University in India, been to IIT also been to NYC for my doctoral studies which is funded by a Intel founder's exclusive scholorship, I also obtained Research Asscociate Position at my University.

    Although I was working on this idea 💡 since May 2021, but actual business establishment happened in 2023. This is one of the disruptive idea 💡 which could potentially touch $1 trillion Market.

    Ask any Indian in United States, what’s the biggest problem you face in States, he/she most likely gonna say it’s the Food 🥘 Yes, we Indians don’t cook 👩‍🍳 👨‍🍳 the food 🍲 with 6 months old frozen 🥶 meat 🍖 it simply doesn’t marry to our Indian Masalas. Whatever expensive restaurant you go, you have to either compromise on taste or bear the vomiting. I literally got vomiting when I had Biryani at Deccan Spices Restaurant in Journal Square, jersey city 🏙️ Having said that, I luckily know how to cook 👨‍🍳 since I grown up outside of home 🏡 since my 11th grade 👨‍🎓 so I used to cook for myself & sometime we used to have indian meetups, I am the leading chef 😂& Columbia grads are my junior chefs, we used to cook tandoori chicken, chicken fry, biryani & more.Those who had, showering compliments, like this food 🥘 is far better than the ANAR restaurant at 110st W MANHATTAN That’s when the idea 💡 of ISE (Indian Savory Experience) came into existence, we started doing heavy research 🔬 about the food 🍱 we even found fresh meat 🥩 at 125st harleem but it costing us $13 for one LB, so we decided to go with frozen meat to cut the costs. Our product “biryani” is far better than any restaurant biryani in NJ & NYC, but we weren’t satisfied with that. For sometime I focused on learning how DOORDASH got built, then binge watched some Ivy League business live content with the help of our friends. Finally thought of give wings to our idea 💡 of providing Authentic Indian Food 🥘 to every person in USA 🇺🇸 We need to modify the recipe heavily to bring back the original taste even if we cook 👨‍🍳 with frozen meat. So, we did heavy R & D to create best product, we invited IIT Kids to work with us, then we launched our first restaurant “ISE” in Hyderabad. Those who had our cuisines really fell in love 😍 later we expanded to Mumbai as well. But I was more intrigued by building a product like Google or firm like Tesla, so Foodtech startup ended

  • Gre Cohort Ecosystem
    Founder
    Gre Cohort Ecosystem Mar 2019 - Oct 2021
    Hyderabad, Telangana, India
    I have built much simpler platform to connect all GRE Prep cohorts & created an inspiring eco system that we experience at IIT Bombay, the platform that I built to study with 5 people reached 17 countries in matter of few days, the initial score we produced with our platform is 325 out of 340 in GRE, that gave us little confidence in the manner we are working. We setup group rules, I shared inspiring content to make everyone in the group toil every single minute, we are allmost working 24*7, people are just pouring in than we could handle, this platform became very popular among those who are going to USA. The kind of ecosystem that I built & all the enriching knowledge that he got out of practicing through our group made Harshith Bhadani to Score 337, likewise Dabrionic from Nigeria to Score 329 to get into the CMU or Manish Shinde from Non English medium to learn English and score 318. There are 100 s of Success stories. There are at least 20 people who scored 330+ and 100s of people who scored above 320 by using these platforms. We had similar platforms for TOEFL/IELTS, even for writing SOPs, VISA interview and Post VISA even to find accommodation in the USA. So, these platforms became full package to study in the USA without burning the cash to any futile consultancy. Interesting thing is, A startup called LEAPSCHOLOR raised $75M funding to provide same service that we provided for free.

    Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
    Worked on a one of the highly growing research field in Nanoelectronics “Spintronics” to develop strong Spin-Orbit coupling in Rare-earth element substitution in MnO2 compound for spin based applications. The learning insights I got from reading most up-to date research articles, consulting various researchers in that field are immeasurable. Hands on experience to synthesize the MnO2 through one of the top down method is really added value to my Nanomaterials synthesis skills. Time that I spend here also gave me the opportunity to attend National & International workshops and conferences at institutes like IIT Bombay, TIFR Mumbai. Last, but not least, this place also offered me to explore the clean room to understand how design techniques like photolithography works, how we can measure magnetic moments, how we can probe the sample to understand its crystal structure etc.
