Founder and CEO of Lernon AI
About
I am Rushiikesh Chandanshiv, the Founder and CEO of Lernon AI. My journey has taken me from the halls of IIT Madras to conducting over 500 hours of STEM and robotics workshops for teachers and training 10,000+ students. I am deeply passionate about the intersection of AI, animation, and the metaverse to create 'Super Learners.' Currently, I am focused on scaling Lernon AI to reach 1 billion children, specifically targeting 'Bharat' (Tier 2/3 cities) with vernacular, immersive content. I've been fortunate to have my work recognized by Microsoft for Startups and NVIDIA Inception. I’m looking to connect with fellow EdTech innovators, purpose-driven investors, and educational leaders who want to revolutionize how we learn. Let’s build something that doesn't just inform, but truly inspires.
