Mythri Kumar and Apoorv Sharma Prasad, co-founders of TimBuckDo, spoke about the investment and reiterated their commitment to the younger generation. They said:
With more than half of India’s population under the age of 25, it is critical to maximize their potential and provide them with meaningful opportunities. The part-time work market is expanding rapidly, with a 30% rise in chances over the last year alone.
TimBuckDo is devoted to providing flexible and meaningful work to the younger generation, therefore driving economic growth.
They also added:We are happy to welcome Nandkishore Kalambi and Morton Meyerson on board as investors and advisors for their journey.
Their conviction in our idea of building a dynamic gig portal for student part-time workers demonstrates the rising relevance of flexible work arrangements in today’s economy.
With their assistance, we are well-positioned to improve our platform and reach out to kids across the country.
The concept for Timbuckdo arose from a sincere chat between one of the creators and his friend. The acquaintance was keen to find a useful method for her teenage son to spend his time and earn money.
The creators were strongly touched by the situation and its possible consequences. They understood that any engagement they had with today’s students had to be beneficial, therefore the concept of a gateway for part-time work for students was conceived.
Tim – Buck – Do represents pupils, Buck evokes money as Bucks, and Do is an action term that represents effort.
Nandkishore Kalambi, whose lifetime enthusiasm for inclusive innovation perfectly complements TimBuckDo’s aim of creating a flexible and friendly employment environment for students, stated:
The future of work is a gig, and TimBuckDo is preparing the world’s next generation workforce by recruiting young people and offering real-world work experience through a variety of part-time positions.
CONCLUSION : TimBuckDo, a student gig economy pioneer, has secured an initial investment of INR 2 crores from US-based angel investors Morton Meyerson and Nandkishore Kalambi. The innovative website connects students with part-time employment opportunities using AI and technology.
