About

In 2006, 17 years after starting the Akanksha Foundation, Shaheen felt compelled to address the issue of educational inequity at scale. As she thought through the solution, she believed that the answer lay in a people’s movement that needed to come together to provide every child in India an excellent education. In 2007, Shaheen met with Wendy Kopp, the Founder of Teach For America and was struck by the idea of leadership being at the core of the solution. In 2009, Teach For India welcomed our first cohort, the Class of 2009, to the Fellowship. The 87 “niners” formed the beginning of what Shaheen hoped would become a nationwide movement of diverse leaders. In 2011, our Niners graduated from the Fellowship and became the first cohort in our Alumni movement. Through their work as Alumni, the hope was that they would become lifelong leaders for equity. Our first cohort of Alumni went into teaching, teacher training, school leadership, and government policy. Today, we have 1250 Fellows working relentlessly in the short-term to change the lives of students in their classrooms and become leaders for change themselves. And we have 1500 Alumni who are collectively fuelling the larger movement towards our vision. The problem of educational inequity cannot be solved alone. Our story is in the relentless efforts of our Fellows, Alumni, staff, partners and supporters, and our children. Together, we can redraw India to be the country we want it to be. To read more about Teach For India's story, read ‘Redrawing India’ written by Shaheen Mistri and Kovid Gupta.

About the company

The Story

Founded in 2011, Poshmark started with a simple yet powerful idea in Manish Chandra's garage. Along with co-founders Tracy Sun, Gautam Golwala, and Chetan Pungaliya, Chandra envisioned a platform that would revolutionize how people buy and sell fashion. The inspiration came from seeing the potential of the iPhone 4 to create meaningful connections in the shopping experience.


What They Do

Poshmark is not just another e-commerce platform – it's a social marketplace that brings together shopping and community. Think of it as a place where social media meets shopping, allowing users to buy, sell, and discover fashion, home goods, and accessories. With over 80 million users , the platform has become a go-to destination for both casual sellers and entrepreneurial individuals looking to build their own digital boutiques.


Growth & Achievements

  • Started as a fashion-only platform and successfully expanded into home goods and electronics
  • Raised over $160 million in venture funding
  • Achieved a successful IPO in January 2021
  • Recently launched innovative features like AI-powered visual search and livestream shopping
  • Built a vibrant community of millions of buyers and sellers across the country


Today, under CEO Manish Chandra's leadership, Poshmark continues to innovate in the social commerce space, blending technology with community to create a unique shopping experience. The platform's success story is a testament to how combining social connections with commerce can create a powerful marketplace that resonates with modern consumers.

A level hierarchy

There are only 2 roles in the organisation - Development and QA. Every employee will either be writing code or testing for quality. We don’t believe in helicopter managers who hover above you and do not understand your work.
