The problem Lumos solves

Lumos addresses the inefficiency and limitations of existing professional social networking platforms like LinkedIn.

These platforms often disadvantage students who lack extensive work experience. Recruiters also struggle to differentiate between experienced professionals and fresh graduates due to the influx of student profiles.

Existing networks prioritize work experience, making it challenging for students to showcase their skills and achievements. This is particularly important as the traditional linear progression from education to work is evolving. Students engage in various activities like *Hackathons, *CTFs that are not adequately highlighted on existing platforms. Skills and achievements are now as important as work experience in modern workplaces.

The saturation of traditional networks with student profiles calls for a platform specifically designed for students.

Lumos introduces NFTs for verifying student accomplishments and features for colleges and entities to create and promote events and competitions. By addressing these issues, Lumos aims to create a professional social network that meets the needs of students and provides a solution for recruiters. This problem is significant in the context of evolving education dynamics and the increasing importance of skills and achievements.
