Hello
As a Silicon Valley engineer with 17 years of experience building high-tech, life-transforming products at Apple, and Google, I returned to India in 2022 with my family and saw a gap in the way education is delivered to kids in the age of AI and rapid technological change. My mission is to equip children with essential 21st-century skills – problem-solving, creative thinking, and communication – by harnessing technology as a catalyst. We initiate this journey with Lego Robotics, sparking young minds to embrace critical thought, hands-on creation, and coding fundamentals. Ultimately, we aim to inspire a generation prepared to navigate an evolving world, driven by curiosity and the ability to craft innovative solutions.
My Story
Hi! I'm Nikesh Jain, the founder of CreativeLinks Club. My journey started with an early introduction to computers, igniting my love for technology. Although I didn't pursue computer engineering, my mechanical engineering background and software fascination intertwined as I embarked on my career. I consistently integrated technology into my roles, which proved instrumental in my professional growth the Silicon Valley. However, it was my time spent playing with my son and exploring the world of Legos that truly sparked my creativity. As a mechanical engineer, I marveled at intricate systems, while my software enthusiast side saw an opportunity to teach coding through playful activities. This experience, coupled with my wife's dedication to education, laid the foundation for the CreativeLinks Club.
The club we founded capitalizes on play-based learning, imparting essential 21st-century skills. Our aim is to contribute to India's growth by nurturing creativity and problem-solving abilities in young minds. The interdisciplinary approach, merging technology, education, and personal experiences, serves as a beacon for others looking to bridge gaps in education. It's my hope that our journey can inspire others to make a positive impact and shape the future of learning and India.
