FORBES India has released its Annual 30 Under 30 list and Aashay Mishra, a dynamic entrepreneur from Bilaspur, is among the influential individuals shaping the business landscape in India.

Forbes India 30 Under 30, now in its tenth year recognises and honours young people who are setting new standards in their respective fields. This year’s list includes the names of 30 achievers from 21 categories, chosen by a jury after extensive review.

Co-Founder and COO of PrepInsta Aashay Mishra said, “I am extremely overwhelmed by the honour of being named in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. The previous years have been extremely challenging from a business standpoint, and this news comes as a silver lining for me personally. I’m feeling rejuvenated and ready to take on even bigger goals with my brand PrepInsta.” Coming from a humble background, Aashay Mishra, who completed his schooling from Delhi Public School, Korba and an EEE graduate from VIT Vellore, kicked-off his career as an Adobe Experience Manager with Publicis Sapient, a digital consulting firm based at Bengaluru. However, Aashay left the job with the zeal to make a large difference in society. He joined forces with his friends Atulya Kaushik and Manish Agarwal to launch the Edtech platform PrepInsta in order to address the existing disparity in job opportunities in India. As an engineering student, Aashay had firsthand knowledge of the hustle and trauma that a student goes through while sitting through college placements. By providing access to 200 plus up-skilling and placement preparation courses, Aashay with the help of his team is helping lakhs of users to grab job opportunities and lower the unemployment burden in India.
