There has never been a time in history when things are progressing as fast as they are today. With AI revolutionizing businesses and startups getting more press coverage than ever before, technology is making sure that learning, working, and communicating become better day by day. However, through all the innovations and advances, there is one constant factor: human innovation, flexibility, and problem-solving capabilities. Join us on The Supreet Singh Show, as we interview entrepreneur Abhiraj Malhotra, founder of SchoolPad, an online venture that aims at making schools better and more efficient.

Starting with an introspection into Abhiraj Malhotra’s early academic life, it is evident that studying Computer Science at Chitkara University in the early 2000s was a period when options for further education were not many. Engineers and doctors were what most individuals aspired to be, and the preparation for extremely competitive entrance tests consumed many years of an individual’s life. In those days, placement was one of the major considerations for choosing colleges. Unlike today’s environment, where countless career paths are available through digital platforms and creator economies, students largely followed conventional routes.

Abhiraj’s interest in technology predates his involvement in any entrepreneurial ventures. The entrepreneur’s interest in websites, software, and other technological innovations paved the way for his joining companies involved in the corporate side of technology, some of which include Infosys. The uniqueness of SchoolPad lies in its approach. Instead of trying to substitute teachers using technology, the SchoolPad system is created to augment them. It is a digital OS for schools that consolidates information into one platform so that informed decisions can be made.

The latest episode of The Supreet Singh Show teaches us all about entrepreneurship, education, technology, and self-improvement. From being an engineering student to becoming the founder of SchoolPad, the amazing journey of Abhiraj Malhotra shows that genuine innovation takes place when technology complements humans and not vice versa.
