Meet Shubham Banerjeer, an entrepreneur unlike any other. One innocent question that he asked his parents when he was 12, “how do blind people read?”, would be the catalyst that changed his life forever. He closed his eyes and imagined all the things he would miss and all things that would be unimaginably difficult. His curiosity and sympathy caused him to stumble upon a seemingly random fact, that the average braille printer costed around 2,000 dollars. That fact sparked off an unavoidable passion that would consume his free time for several months.

Shubham had a structural mind that lead him to have a hobby in constructing plastic model intricate electrical Lego model kits. His in-depth skill of electronics and model configuration gave him the ability to create a working braille printer himself by combining a printer a Lego structure. As soon as he made braille letters come out of his printer, he said “I felt like I could actually have an impact”. He entered the invention in a county science fair where he won $500 and opened many doors.

Shubham became very busy, going on talk show broadcasts, meeting investors and carefully figuring out his next steps to take with his invention. He and his parents started, and official corporation called Braigo Lab. Briago Lab got an undisclosed backing, report say the amount was a few hundred thousand dollars by Intel Capital. Intel Capital had their annual summit where they invited Shubham and showcased his invention.

Shubham is an open evangelist who has a heart to serve and help people. The best advice he ever received was this, “Be humble, and innovate for the right reasons—money is not one of them.” Here is a look at his first and second prototype. Shubham inspires  all to think of others needs instead of our own
