CONNECTING AMERICAN STARTUPS WITH TOP ENGINEERS

YOUR BRIDGE TO THE BEST SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS FROM IITs (MIT, CALTECH & STANFORD OF INDIA)

IITians’ reputation of being among the most talented and hardworking engineers in the world isn’t only due to the rigorous coursework they go through at IITs, but also the discipline required to be among the 0.5% to 2% of applicants accepted into an IIT.

Our engineers come from prestigious IIT programs, which are renowned for producing many famous engineers, entrepreneurs and executives, such as Sundar Pichai (CEO of Alphabet and Google), Parag Agrawal (ex-CEO of Twitter), and Vinod Khosla (Founder of Khosla Ventures and Sun Microsystems).

At TopMinds, we connect American startups with the crème de la crème of engineering talent from its founder’s homeland, engineers from Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs, colloquially referred to as the Stanford, MIT and Caltech of India).
