Rishabh Shah
Just another young person helping young people
Apparently Founded
Rishabh has founded and is responsible for multiple organisations who do not wish to be associated with him, the few that do are:
Founder & Chairman
Aufklaren Group of Companies
From technology to human resource management, and from curriculum building to events. He started this as a 17 year old and now the group via its subsidiary companies is a name to reckon with in the service sector- if you can pronounce Aufklaren i.e..
Founder
Initiated in 2011, India's International Movement to Unite Nations or as it is popularly called I.I.M.U.N. now on the back of 26,000 young volunteers (age 16-24) annually impacts 10 million students across 160 cities in 22 countries with the sole aim of promoting the concept of one world via spreading the idea of India. As the worlds largest offline platform for young people and advised by an illustrious cohort comprising Mr. Godrej, AR Rahman, Former Chiefs of Armed Forces, it is the effort of a lot of people. As the self appointed face of the same, Rishabh likes to take all the credit.
Founder & Trustee
Taking India Forward Foundation
India is a heterogeneous society, one where egalitarianism though imbibed in the constitution is something that yet remains a utopian concept for the underprivileged. With our biggest demographic dividend being our youth, therein lies the peril and the opportunity. Whilst the focus of many governments have remained the quintessential roti, kapda, makaan and now vikaas, it is going to require much more than the coalesce of the executive, judiciary and the legislative to provide for equal opportunities for the not so fortunate. The motto is Educate. Elevate. Empower.
Founder & Director
First Time Voters
Rishabh is very passionate about getting young people to the ballot box, as he believes that only through good governance can you affect change. Initiated in 2014, over 20,000 first time voters have registered via this to vote for a party or NOTA.
Things he does to earn money
Iron and Steel Business
With a steely resolve, he hopes to take over and become the Iron man of his family business. However, he is yet struggling to lift more than the box you see in this picture
Finance Files
Pretending to help his uncle and put his fake degrees to use
Anything else that helps him earn money
For a Better Future & A Better Car
Things he does to spend his money
The Guest Lecturer
He has lectured on Entrepreneurship, International Marketing, Networking and Effective Communication at some of India's top educational institutes including IIM's, IIT's, HSNC University amongst others. Here are some students from Jai Hind College, Mumbai forced to smile and click a picture with Prof Rishabh Shah, who held their marks ransom.
The Motivational Speaker
Rishabh loves to talk about his failures (considering the successes have been far and few) and shares his opinions on the times we live in especially Politics, International Relations and whatever little he understands about the youth. From having spoken at spiritual forums such as the Buddhist Sokka Gakai, to having spoken at the very United Nations. He has made people from over 30+ countries suffer by visiting them to give talks. And unfortunately, because he does not charge he is often invited to speak. Remember what is free, need not be good.
The Author
Rishabh has penned his journey in a book called 'An Open Mic' in which he talks about how he overcame his fear of public speaking. Acclaimed by numerous luminaries such as Dr. Shashi Tharoor, Mr. Ronnie Screwvala, Mr. Shiamak Davar & Mr. Sunil Gavaskar. This is a book that is fit for those navigating an extrovert's world principally as an introvert. Currently, he is penning his second book on India and the United Nations. Question is who will publish it?..:P
The Social Activist
Rishabh believes in combatting climate change, reforming the united nations, furthering democracy and many other non controversial issues which help him maintain the low profile he wants to keep. Here you see him leading 10,000+ students with Union Cabinet Minister, Shri. Piyush Goyal giving him company pushing for India getting a permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council.
The Columnist
Having been an ardent student who almost failed every paper in International Relations, Geo-politics, history and politics, he is a fervent writer who probably is the only one who reads his blog. You may have seen some of his work in popular English dailies in India.
The Host
He is a person who refuses to give up and will try his hand at everything including torturing upwards of 100+ guests on a series called Kuch Toh Karona that he started with the aim of infusing positivity. Having granted himself the permission of interviewing luminaries on the iimunofficial page, you may want to run away after the first 5 minutes but remember the show is for a little bit longer..:P You will find some names who survived here below:
Famous people who silently suffered
How he wastes his free time
Reading
Shakespeare, History, Politics & Anything that will make him seem smart
Spirituality & Meditation
Who am I?
Sports
Chess. Golf. Cricket. Football. Badminton. Table Tennis. Water Polo. Anything as long as he wins
Travel
Each empty page on your passport is a story waiting to unfold. 50+ countries and counting

![Finally sharing a thought that has found its perfect photograph:
“Where there is faith, there is no truth,
And where there is truth, there is no need for faith”
In a conversation which I was supposed to ask questions, I got cross examined on everything from religion, philosophy, science, history, geo-politics, ideologies and much more.
A witty rationalist who is undoubtedly one of the smartest men to have ever walked this planet- was one of the many reasons why I sat on the edge of the seat more than on it.
In a world full of reel models, I met someone who in ways more than one is my role model ❤️
