About Skilled Sapiens

Skilled Sapiens is an ISO certified up-skilling platform which is focusing on Live experiential learning, Leadership
training, and Personalized Mentorship, backed by corporate mentors to prepare students, working
professionals, and entrepreneurs for their corporate as well as entrepreneurial stints, and enriching managerial
skills in different domains like Sales & Marketing, Finance, Consulting, Product man, HR, Entrepreneurship, etc

Skilled Sapiens is currently operating in two verticals, as mentioned below:

1. Campus to Corporate
2. Campus to Business

Campus to Corporate

We are focusing on Live experiential learning, Leadership training and Placement mentorship, in collaboration
with corporate mentors to prepare students for their corporate fitment, and enriching their managerial skills in
different domains like Sales & Marketing, Finance, Consulting, Product management, etc. We mentor students
in building their profile, resume, We help them in preparing for HR & technical round of interview, Role &
company specific training, mock GD-PI, and help students in getting their dream placement from campus/off-
campus. We also mentor working professionals to switch their current role/company/industry for better career
growth & opportunities.

Campus to Business

In our Sapiens' Incubation Centre, we assist entrepreneurs in obtaining & generating funding for their ideas,
developing investor pitches, fixing meetings with potential investors, conducting market research for the ideas,
assisting in company registration & legal compliances, prototype testing, and idea generation, lead-generation,
cost analysis, business plan guidance, web development, tax advisory, and providing personalized case-
specific mentorships in the field of entrepreneurship under our flagship “Start-hub Mentorship Program”

Current Scenario

The majority of revenue comes from services including Live mentorship sessions to students aspiring to become
Sales and Marketing Managers, Product Managers, Consultants, Brand Managers, etc. along with their resume
and profile building sessions. The market is highly competitive with a number of players in ‘Campus to
Corporate’ domain but very few in the ‘Campus to Business’ space, currently we mentor students who are
preparing for CAP round process (or MBA admission interviews) and also to prepare them for campus
placements & even later to help them switch the companies/role (Placement preparation to working
professionals) under campus to corporate vertical of Skilled Sapiens

“Everyone should join Skilled Sapiens and take control of their professions, in my opinion. There's no need to
reinvent the wheel when you can easily figure out how to define career goals, finalize a career action plan, or
use mentors as a sounding board for your action plan” - Said a student who had already taken the leadership
program”.

“The sessions helped me to clarify my career objectives and the steps I needed to take to accomplish them.
After completing the program, I am much more clear-

headed, and I immediately began trying to get into my desired B-School, job, and career.” - Said another
student.

With good word of mouth, Skilled Sapiens has been able to become a name signifying trust and ensuring high
value for money, especially among students who are MBA students.

Company is equally active in business consultancy services (Campus to Business) and aims to penetrate in B-
schools, E-schools, and Start-up ecosystem with its monthly subscription based model of Start-hub
Mentorship Program

Start-hub Mentorship Program

Start-Hub (Learning Hub for Startups) mentorship program offers access to a deep and wide-reaching network
of investors, mentors, industry experts, and enterprises, which the startups can leverage to fast-track their
growth and advancement. The program is also backed by a strong Steering Committee, members of which
come from diverse backgrounds within the startup ecosystem.

We have identified three important phases of any start-up; Early Phase, Growth Phase, and Expansion
Phase, with our customized & personalized solutions we offer a wide range of services depending upon the
phase of a respective startup. However, we want to focus more on Early Phase & Growth Phase start-ups in

Scope of work

The company now wants to become an end-to-end market service provider in the educational & business
consultancy, and looking to enter in the mentoring space of K-12 Segment mainly focussing on the students in
Classes 7-12 standard. The space is already red-ocean especially in the tutoring space, and in the NEET/IITJEE
market, but we don’t want to teach students for NEET/IIT JEE, etc., we feel with the introduction of the NEP
(New Education Policy) the game can be changed, and there is a huge opportunity to guide students in various
fields & domains - Soft Skill, Vocational training, etc.. The company is keen to enter in this market with diverse
offerings to attract the Parents, Schools & School going students

Aim is to penetrate in the K-12 segment & to onboard at least 60 schools of Tier 1/2/3 cities in next 12 months
simultaneously focusing on community building & onboarding new Mentors, Schools, and Sales executives on
the platform
