Propelld
“During summer vacations, while everyone else spent money traveling to exotic locations, new clothes and fancy restaurants, my family bought books. When classes started, I was always a step ahead. We built Propelld to give back the same chance to all students, an opportunity to learn without financial constraints.“

About Victor
Victor received his bachelor’s of technology and MBA from top flight schools and started work as an investment banker with Deutsche Bank. But after developing a grasp of the marketplace and seeing successful founders in his close network, he yearned to venture out on his own.
The first few years of Victor’s new entrepreneurial role went toward learning “what not to do.” But when he met Samantaray and Das zeroed in on the idea of Propelld, he never felt more certain of what he wanted to do in his life: increase educational access through flexible student loans. Through ups and downs, he and his co-founders have held true to each other, and their shared values of grit and hustle.
