Internships play a crucial role in the overall learning journey of a student. Internships give students a chance to explore what kind of work tickles their fascination.

About the organization

My Role

It was a product-based project. We are building a platform where people from different communities can come together in a single place and showcase their talent. We are trying to make a social network for people who want to showcase their skills in different domains but do not get a chance. We will help such people by providing them with a platform where they can share their content particular to their field. We will be integrating rewards for the creators. The familiar audience and the creators can give other creators rewards for their content. Our platform will connect this artist to his target audience by providing him with the community of artists. Similarly, we will have different communities on our platforms such as travel community, book readers community, and many more of these types.

Our sole purpose for choosing this project is to bring together like-minded people on a common platform where they can interact, connect, share, appreciate each other’s art, and much more. Some people are very talented, but their art is not much appreciated. We will help such people by providing them with a platform where they can showcase their creativity and will be appreciated by the people depending on their content. It will also help the collective audience to see the content related to a particular domain at one specific place. To make this change in every field in a different way, we are there to help those creators. This will motivate them as we will have a rewards system where people can appreciate each other by giving them tokens based on their content. Users will also benefit from them as they can see the content they like, and their queries can be solved quickly.

My mentors and people there are very supportive and helpful. I have learnt how things work there and how the machines are used and technology behind it.
