As a first-generation entrepreneur, MIDAS provided me with the ecosystem and support I needed to build Enerchi Mints. From ideation to MVP, the coaches were there with me at every step of the journey."

"MIDAS pushed me to turn my vision into reality. Building The Grind Club wasn’t just about starting a business—it was about developing the mindset, discipline, and execution skills needed to sustain it. The constant mentorship and hands-on learning helped me move from idea to action with confidence."

Vaibhav RathiThe Grind Club

My time at MIDAS has been the most memorable period of my life. Being a part of Rajdhani Motors has always been a matter of pride for me. When it was time for me to step in, I knew I wanted to take it to greater heights. My coaches at MIDAS helped me do all of that and more. They were always available to guide me in the right direction and give me the encouragement I needed."

After my BBA, I felt stuck in a theory-heavy system that didn’t support real entrepreneurship. MIDAS changed that by giving me hands-on experience through real business work and decision-making. It also helped me build the right mindset and clarity, with strong mentor support, especially from Pooja Ma’am. The driven ecosystem pushed me to grow daily. More than a college, MIDAS is where I truly began becoming an entrepreneur.
