Hi! Who dis?

Welcome! I'm Samay. 

I'm 18, from Mumbai, and a self-taught engineer. 

I founded Alteon Energy - where we're building a cheaper, decentralized way to extract wind energy over the ocean to provide 2-7x cheaper power to offshore oil rigs. 

A TL;DR of my story:

  1. Started trading futures when I was 14 cause I was bored during Covid.
  2. Started selling t-shirts a couple months after that.
  3. From 14 to around 16/17, I tried and failed at building 2 wannabe startups (edtech + freelance marketplace).
  4. Came close to death ~15/16. Had existential crisis. Started craving real large scale impact. Eventually learned what I was working on, was not that. 
  5. Took 3-4mos last year to randomly learn/experiment. Got a small grant to tinker with hardware -- got very hardware pilled. 
  6. Decided not to go to uni, and work on Alteon. I have spent ~1yr now learning and making progress towards the same.

My vibes.
