WE BUILD
BUILDERS
India's non-profit deep-tech entrepreneurship fellowship. From circuits and code to commercial products —
By students, for the world.
"I'm convinced that about half of what separates successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance and the— Steve Jobs
willingness to learn from failure."
A FELLOWSHIP OF
STUDENT ENTREPRENEURS
Not a course. Not a club. A system that turns curious students into deep-tech founders.
EIS Foundation is a registered Section 8 non-profit public-benefit institution. We're a society of entrepreneurs optimizing for what our members build, ship, and impact.
The Dual Engine Model
Education Engine
Programs, workshops, mentorship
Product Engine
Real products, real impact
Programs produce builders → builders create products → products fund better programs

TO MASTERY
FROM FOUNDATIONS
TO MASTERY
One unified system that grows with students—from first explorations to deep-tech research ventures.
Phase I: The Explorer
Introduction to building through play. Block-based programming, simple robotics, and physical construction projects that develop mechanical intuition before technical complexity.
Phase II: The Builder
Hands-on technical skill development. Arduino, microcontrollers, CAD modeling, and introductory software development. Students build functional prototypes that solve real problems.
Phase III: The Micro-Agency
Commercial application of skills. Students run client-facing ventures—AI tool development, Notion agencies, custom automation. Real revenue, real clients, real accountability.
Phase IV: The Deep Tech Researcher
Multi-year research and venture development. Liquid nitrogen propulsion, UAV systems, medical devices, B2B AI platforms. Where students become founders of investable deep-tech ventures.
I Want to Build
Build something that didn't exist before you thought of it. Access mentors, resources, and a community of builders.
I Want to Partner
Upgrade your innovation lab's operating system. Bring EIS programs to your campus or collaborate on initiatives.
I Want to Guide
Back the builders who will define the next decade. Share your expertise, network, or capital with student ventures.
"Before EIS, I thought entrepreneurship meant selling things online. Now I've built an actual product that a law firm pays for. The shift in my thinking is permanent."
