DesignBoat: Reaching Out To the Start-ups, Drop outs, Freshers and Students with a Knack for Design!
DesignBoat will bring students, startups and educational institutes on one platform and revolutionize the design education sector..
The world has provided us with enough instances which prove that a college degree shouldn’t be standing between you and your dream. This is one such exceptional example that is now set to revolutionize the digital design world. Harsha Kakkeri was passionate about digital design. However he was a college dropout and did not go through a formal training in design. Not letting these factors hold him back in his career, Harsha Kakkeri soon found himself at a start-up as a graphic designer. This was a time when the world was yet to be caught under the digital wave. Harsha kept working until years later he called it quits while he was Head of Product Design to start his own venture. Today with an experience of more than a decade, he has co-founded the UI-UX Studio and Design School, DesignBoat with Akshay Bukka, who is a techie with IT experience of 6years focussing on mentoring team and ChetanDeshmukh, who with his good management skills is involved in strategic planning, with the aim to meet the UI-UX need of companies with exceptional design and also equip aspiring designers with the skills to make it in the world of digital design. Harsha Kakkeri says, “It took me 12 years to understand the complete design process. I don't want the upcoming young generations to spend another 12 years to understand what design is."
