Co-Founder, CEO & CTO
Riddhesh leads with a strategic vision for how institutions can adopt technology to expand international opportunities for their students. An MBA with experience across real estate, medical services, and education, he brings a multidisciplinary perspective to building systems that scale while remaining reliable, transparent, and institution-led.
As the co-creator of Learner Connect, Riddhesh has shaped the platform into a transcontinental ecosystem designed to support institutions across the entire counselling and placement journey. His work focuses on creating structured frameworks that simplify complex processes, strengthen institutional visibility, and ensure consistency at every stage of guidance.
At the core of this work is a purpose-built AI foundation that supports decision-making, matching, and workflow coordination across the journey. Riddhesh has led the design and development of this AI architecture ensuring it is fully trained, dependable, and grounded in real counselling logic rather than generic automation. The system enhances accuracy, consistency, and scale, while keeping human judgment and institutional ownership firmly at the centre.
His belief is clear: institutions not intermediaries should remain the most trusted source of guidance. By building robust, future-ready systems that operate quietly in the background, he enables schools and colleges to lead with confidence, clarity, and long-term vision.
"We believe in institution-led guidance, where clarity replaces confusion. We become the dedicated, dependable engine that works consistently and quietly to make this global reality accessible to every campus."
