“I want to help make tech more accessible for everyone.”

Manan Bhatia has been a technology enthusiast all his life. As a child in India, he was fascinated by how things worked – what powered the devices he used and how all the systems connected.

That curiosity eventually led him to study software engineering in Brisbane, Queensland Australia, where he’s been building digital (and personal) networks.

Queensland stood out as the perfect place to take this leap. “I picked Australia, specifically Queensland, for the weather here and the job opportunities – especially in tech,” he says. “Brisbane is booming with new opportunities.”
