About

I'm Jaiveer Talwar.

A Year 12 student at Cathedral & John Connon School in Mumbai, studying the International Baccalaureate and graduating in 2027. I'm drawn to the intersection of business, technology, and social impact — whether that's building products, running ventures, or understanding how organisations work from the inside.

Outside the classroom, I founded an assistive technology company, a student entrepreneurship society, and a charitable gifting platform — and have interned across industries in Mumbai and Dubai.
