The Opportunity
India has world-class chess players competing internationally (Caruana, Praggnanandhaa, Goryachkina), but there is a massive gap between elite players and the millions of young Indians who want to learn chess seriously. Parents struggle to find structured, affordable coaching from trained instructors who can prepare kids for competitive tournaments. Most coaching happens informally or requires expensive one-on-one sessions.
