Shweta Kulkarni, Who Became An AstroPreneur At the age of 16, Wants To Make India Proud Through Her Passion For Astronomy.
The conception of AstronEra stemmed from the disappointment she faced when she found out that dedicated educational portals for astronomy were quite scarce. Since the age of 16, when she bought her first telescope in 2011, she has been trying to popularize astronomy. When she turned 18, she registered a non-profit organization, Astron-SHK Trust.
The idea of an astronomy-dedicated e-learning platform was conceived about five years ago and Astron Era was finally incubated by IIM Bangalore and IIM Nagpur under the women startup program 2018.
Astron Era, a private limited undertaking, offers both elementary and sophisticated concepts of astronomy explained in a creative and insightful manner. Curious beginners can make good use of the introductory courses while ardent admirers of celestial bodies can benefit from the advanced courses. Impressed by its “uplifting” purpose, Shweta earned a grant from the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India – a highly acclaimed recognition.
