Social networking for Students is primarily limited to websites such as LinkedIn and college based contacts. This allows students to search for like-minded people only in a limited circle. In contrast, using our application would enable students to expand their boundaries and reach students from various parts of the world.
This is a social networking website designed for business professionals. Interaction on the platform is not restricted to only companies to students but collaborations between students is also encouraged.
It allows you to share work-related information with other users and keep an online list of professional contacts.
