Vishal, an IIT Kharagpur graduate, recognized a common challenge among aspiring MBA students and aspiring entrepreneurs in India. Financial constraints, lack of time, and family concerns often hindered their ambitions. However, Vishal discovered a solution during his own transformative 100-day world tour of 31 prestigious B-Schools in 2017. Realizing that an international educational tour of 7-10 days could be both affordable and feasible, Vishal had a game-changing idea. Inspired by his own journey, he founded LWT (Learning While Travelling) with the mission to provide students the kind of exposure he wished he had at a young age. On January 30, 2018, Vishal officially registered LWT Business Private Limited. His startup aimed to offer students immersive experiences, combining education with travel. LWT's programs provided students with invaluable learning opportunities, similar to what Vishal experienced during his world tour. Through LWT, Vishal revolutionized student experiences, enabling them to gain global exposure, expand their networks, and enhance their skill sets. By bridging the gap between education and exploration, LWT empowered students to pursue their dreams of pursuing an MBA or starting their own ventures.
