M. Premkumar

Founder

I am Premkumar M, a 2025 passed-out Information Technology graduate from the Madras Institute of Technology (MIT), Chennai. I am a young, passionate, and fast-learning engineer who loves working across multiple domains in a short period of time. Throughout my journey, I have explored and contributed to diverse fields including:

  • Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
  • Robotics & IoT (Internet of Things)
  • Embedded Systems & Arduino
  • Blockchain & Cryptography
  • Mobile app development (Flutter, React Native)
  • Networking, IP management & cloud systems
  • Digital art, NFT generation & automation

I strongly believe in learning by building. My curiosity drives me to create new things, solve real-world problems, and turn ideas into working prototypes. I enjoy taking on challenging projects and pushing myself to understand technologies end-to-end—from hardware to software and from design to deployment.

I have collaborated with multiple organizations, events, and technical teams, gaining hands-on experience in project development, system design, and problem solving. I actively involve myself in entrepreneurship and leadership activities, contributing ideas, managing teams, and leading initiatives that create value.

As a tech enthusiast, my goal is to continue building innovative solutions that make a real impact in society, while constantly improving myself as a developer, creator, and future entrepreneur.
