Beyond Academics – Life Skills
Nitin Gour is the Founder and CEO of Bloomster. He is passionate about transforming education to focus on holistic student development. Bloomster is a dynamic platform that empowers students by teaching over 25 essential life skills, helping them thrive in five key areas critical to navigating today’s ever-changing world. With nearly two decades of experience in the corporate world, spanning technology and finance, Nitin came to recognize that academic success alone isn’t enough to prepare young individuals for real-life challenges.
He saw a pressing need for an education model that fosters self-awareness, confidence, and well-rounded growth. This realization inspired him to leave the corporate sector in 2022 to establish Bloomster, a mission-driven platform dedicated to closing the gap in traditional education by equipping students with the skills they need to succeed in school and beyond. At Bloomster, the mission is to support parents in nurturing confident, self-aware, and resilient individuals who can navigate a world of constant change with ease. It has been an incredibly rewarding journey, and Nitin is proud to contribute to the holistic growth and lifelong success of today’s adolescents.
