Shine Projects, with an extraordinary vision, embarked upon the journey of full-fledged live teaching since May 2020, and have witnessed a tremendous growth in revenue, which is soon inching towards a seven-digit figure. With its headquarters located in Hyderabad’s T-Hub(Community space for start-ups, investors, incubators and accelerators by Government of Telangana), the Company operates in India, the Middle East, the US, and the UK. Here, the objective of the Company is to provide financial literacy and make the students – industry-ready in an affordable manner.

The beginning of the Company is the knitted results of the Coronavirus lockdown and the Founder’s passion for imparting affordable and high-quality practical education.

The inimitable feature is that, upon completion of the course, the student gets a personal LinkedIn recommendation from Mr. Harsha, this feature is currently available only with Shine and is another USP.
