Meet the Cohort 2026 of The Polaris Fellowship !🚀 10 Fellows selected from 10,000 applications across India over the last 2 months. We had students applying from literally every university from India. The process was as tough as it could be - 5 Rounds. These 10 Fellows are going to spend the next 6 months with their respective companies, working on some super challenging problem statements. The idea was simple : Build "the flagship" university student program from India. If India represents so massively in global programs like the Google Summer of Code, etc - why not have our own program? Yesterday, we had the Fellowship Orientation Day in Bangalore. Here are the 10 Fellows, Cohort 2026: 1. Kunal Kashyap - Selected @emergentlabs 2. Deepesh Ahlawat - Selected @ aftershoot 3. Preynsh Thukral - Selected @BlumeVentures 4. Vijay Srinivas - Selected @ VULTR 5. Aastha Deshwal - Selected @ Classplus 6. Sarvesh Kannan - Selected @InMobi 7. Rahul Tripathi - Selected @BrightMoneyCo 8. Abhishek Kumawat - Selected @BainandCompany 9. Amay Dixit - Selected @emergentlabs 10. Bavishya - Selected @ Aftershoot It's going to be a roller coaster ride over the 6 months for them! Here's to building India's biggest Fellowship program :)

I'll correct this image - 1,000 applications in every 24 hours! Yes, that's what has been happening for the past 7 days in The Polaris Fellowship. We have received some amazing applications. If you open LinkedIn, probably every other post will be a university student from India posting their intro video applying to the fellowship. We will be shortlisting 10 students at the end to work with our partner companies in the program : @BlumeVentures, @BainandCompany, @my_escplan, @emergentlabs and more! The total stipend pool is 10 Lakhs per student fellow during the program. Many students have also started receiving the Round 2 shortlist emails.
