Collective Artists Network Under 25

Collective Artists Network’s Under 25 has just completed 50 Summits at Campus (SACs) across 20 cities, 50 premier institutions, and 40,000+ students, solidifying its place as India’s largest youth media network. More than just events, these summits are redefining how students prepare for life—personally, professionally, and financially.

In a world where digital is everything, Under 25 is proving that the future of brand engagement lies in blending digital communities with on-ground experiences. SACs bring the energy of India’s most influential youth voices into real-world interactions—bridging the gap between online engagement and offline impact. The formula is simple: get students in a room, get them to engage, and get them ready for life.

Over 150+ industry leaders, creators, and cultural icons have taken the stage at these summits—including Adarsh Gourav, Varun Sharma, Bhuvan Bam, Ahsaas Channa, Rohit Saraf, Prajakta Koli, The Rebel Kid (Apoorva), Shriya Pilgaonkar, Bruised Passports, Srishti Dixit, Rhea Chakraborty and others.

But inspiration is just the starting point. The Under 25 app takes the summit experience beyond a one-day event, keeping students engaged long after the curtains close. Missions, exclusive opportunities, and digital-first challenges let students earn, learn, and connect in real time—proving that community-building isn’t just about showing up, it’s about staying engaged.

Under 25 is leading the phygital revolution—where real-world experiences drive digital engagement, and digital engagement brings real-world action. This is not just brand visibility; this is culture-building.

Zerodha’s #InvestInYou campaign urged students to invest in themselves. Netflix launched the trailer of Mismatched at SAC. TTT & The Rebel Kid turned Baat Pakki into a youth-first conversation. Brands are not just advertising; they’re integrating. They’re not just marketing; they’re shaping student culture.

Jeel Gandhi, CEO, Under 25 said, “Under 25 is the largest youth network in India, building the most engaged student communities both online and offline. 50 summits in, the insight is clear: young India doesn’t want to be spoken to, they want to be spoken with. The brands that understand this—those that create experiences, listen to students, and build for them—are the ones that will win. Whether it’s inside a college campus or through a digital mission on the Under 25 app, we are building the future of youth engagement in India."
