IITx was born from a simple belief: that the knowledge and experience of IIT alumni should be accessible to anyone with the drive to learn and grow. We're building the world's largest network of verified IIT mentors.
To democratize access to world-class mentorship by connecting aspiring individuals with accomplished IIT alumni, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and mutual growth that transcends geographical and economic boundaries.
To create a global ecosystem where every IIT alumnus becomes a catalyst for innovation and success, empowering the next generation of leaders, entrepreneurs, and change-makers through personalized guidance and mentorship.
Founded in 2024 by a group of IIT alumni working across Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and Bangalore, IITx emerged from a shared frustration: despite the incredible success of IIT graduates worldwide, there was no structured way for them to give back to the community that shaped them.
We noticed that while individual IIT alumni were mentoring informally, there was no platform that could scale this impact. Students and professionals were struggling to find the right guidance, while successful alumni wanted to help but lacked an efficient way to do so.
Today, IITx has grown into a thriving community of over 500 verified mentors from all 23 IIT campuses, spanning industries from technology and finance to healthcare and social impact. We've facilitated thousands of mentorship sessions, helping mentees land dream jobs, start successful companies, and navigate critical career decisions.
We maintain the highest standards in mentor verification, platform quality, and user experience, reflecting the excellence that defines the IIT community.
We believe in the power of collective knowledge and foster a supportive environment where everyone can learn, grow, and contribute to each other's success.
Every interaction on our platform is designed to create meaningful, lasting impact in the lives of both mentors and mentees, building a legacy of positive change.
