How I founded and scaled Age of Geeks into a 500K+ strong AI/ML community. I built everything from the ground up, content, campaigns, partnerships, events, all with a single goal: to make AI education and opportunity truly accessible in India.
Scope of Work
Before I began
I started Age of Geeks while I was still a full-time BE IT student because I saw a clear gap. There were talented people across India interested in AI and emerging tech, but they lacked access to the right resources, mentorship, and community. Most high-quality content and opportunities were limited to a few cities or locked behind paywalls.
I wanted to change that. My goal was to create an open, inclusive space where anyone curious about AI, regardless of background, could learn, connect, and grow.
It wasn’t just about education. It was about giving people the confidence to participate in global conversations, build their own projects, and imagine a future where India plays a leading role in tech innovation.
What I built
I started Age of Geeks (formerly Machine Learning India) to change that.
Grew the community from 0 to 500,000+ members, making it one of India’s largest AI/ML communities.
Designed and ran a content engine that drove 8M+ monthly impressions, turning the platform into a go-to destination for AI insights and learning.
Led 45+ events and workshops across India to build skill, connection, and confidence in emerging tech.
Upskilled 5,000+ individuals through hands-on sessions, mentorship, and community-led learning.
Worked with 40+ brands, including Web3 and Blockchain companies, to run campaigns that reached the right audiences.
Handled everything end-to-end, strategy, content, design, delivery, engagement, and growth.
