HISTORY

Rahul Sharma,an SMVDU alumnus, left his earlier venture, and decided to set up a platform specifically designed for working professionals, later named asEngigyan, in mid-2018. He landed the position of the runner-up in the renowned event- Ideation 2017 National Competition, an event organised every year by IIT- Delhi. Such events encouraged him more to go ahead with this innovative idea. The desire of always helping the society in one way or other encouraged Rahul to move forward with his ideas and willingness to set up a platform to provide easy learning to students around the globe. As a result of this, he also supported one palkhi project in IIT- Bombay. Founded by Rahul Sharma and Sumit Kumar Sah, this idea finally started taking its shape from just an idea to an actual office and hence turning into a start up. With only 3 employees, initially, Rahul and Sumit started on with their venture in a small office in Jammu, turning it into a full-fledged company. The company launched its first pilot project for the second year students of the SMVDU college in Jammu in mid-2018. One-month training was also provided to the students. In the next 3 months, Engigyan reached the new milestone of being easily approachable to about 500 students within a time span of only 3 months. Not only this, in these 3 months they also successfully ended up in setting up another office in Delhi.
