I grew up in Guwahati, Assam — far from the startup ecosystems usually associated with tech or venture capital. My early upbringing, along with my education at NIT Silchar (B.Tech, Computer Science & Engineering) and MBA from IIM Shillong, shaped both my character and ambition.

NIT Silchar was deeply transformative for me. I founded and led AIESEC at NITS, served as General Secretary of CSE, and headed campus initiatives like Incandescence and Tecnoesis. At IIM Shillong, leading the Student Council and launching new initiatives strengthened my confidence in driving impact at scale.

I pursued my career in Management Consulting at Deloitte, EY, and Accenture — advising Fortune 500 companies on strategy and transformation. While rewarding, I had an innate urge to build something of my own.

In January 2020, I took a leap of faith and left my rewarding corporate career to pursue entrepreneurship. Early months were very difficult — no ecosystem support, limited connections, no stable income, and a global pandemic. But I kept pushing forward.

In 2021, Gobillion was selected into Y Combinator (YC S21). YC changed my life — I had the privilege of being mentored by top global investors & founders in Silicon Valley and being part of a global ecosystem. Later in 2024, I founded MyriadAI to help global enterprises adopt AI at scale.

“Global tech companies can be built from anywhere — including the classrooms and hostels of NIT Silchar — and ambition should never be limited by geography or background.”
