See how shared responsibility and collective effort can create positive outcomes that extend beyond a single initiative.
Behind every meaningful success story is a journey. It starts with understanding a challenge, continues with focused action, and leads to measurable progress that creates new possibilities.
Every story begins by understanding the people, communities, or situations that need support. We look beyond the surface to understand the real challenge, the circumstances surrounding it, and what kind of support can make a meaningful difference.
Ideas create possibilities, but action creates progress. Through initiatives, collaboration, resources, and community participation, we work toward practical solutions that address the needs identified at the beginning of the journey.
The journey comes together in the impact created. Whether it means a new opportunity, stronger community participation, improved access, or another meaningful outcome, every result becomes part of a larger story of positive change.
A successful initiative is not defined only by what happens on the day. It is defined by the opportunities it creates, the people it reaches, the lessons it leaves behind, and the possibility of inspiring even more positive action in the future.
Founded in 2018, Makes360 began with one belief: that the right technology, systems and strategy can help any business grow. From a single founder's curiosity to a real, in-house team serving 214+ businesses across 7+ countries, every milestone here was built — not bought — one step at a time.
What it taught us
Alongside building the company, founder Anish Kumar completed a B.Tech in Computer Science (IT), an MBA, and is pursuing a PhD in AI & Business Automation.
Start Your ProjectStill in Class 9, Anish became fascinated by how a hex code could turn a few characters into colour on a screen. He funded that curiosity the entrepreneurial way — trading phones and SIM cards for his own pocket money.
Hungry to understand more, he taught himself from every computer book and magazine he could find — and topped Class 10 with a perfect 10 CGPA.
On a borrowed phone and a free platform, he built his first website. It reached nearly 10 lakh views a week and earned his first income online — a ₹7,000 cheque. When it was later taken down over content and legal issues, it became an early lesson in building the right way.
Before founding the company, Anish had shipped roughly 47 websites, tools and channels — most failed, each one a lesson. On 7 October 2018, with that hard-won foundation, he founded Makes360 to help businesses grow through technology, systems and strategy.
Early projects across web and marketing proved the model worked. Results — not promises — turned one-off jobs into lasting partnerships, and word of mouth began to compound.
Makes360 was incubated at ACIC RISE, bringing the mentorship, structure and validation to grow from a solo effort into a real organisation.
The company crossed a 10-person team, organised into dedicated departments — development, marketing and sales — each accountable for client results.
Makes360 crossed 100 clients and 463 delivered projects, as repeatable systems turned momentum into compounding growth.
Net revenue crossed ₹1 crore, with an estimated ₹50 crore+ in value created for clients. Anish was honoured with a Best Entrepreneur award, presented by Ashneer Grover, among other recognitions.
Makes360 opened its second branch in IT City, Mohali. Today the team is 37 strong, serving 100+ clients and 500+ projects across 7+ countries — and still growing.
India's CSR law under the Companies Act applies to companies far larger than us. We do this anyway — not because we have to, but because it's how we want to run a business.
Unpaid internships are common in this industry. We have never run one — every team member and intern is paid fairly for the work they do.
We hire and promote on the work — never on caste, gender, religion or background. No exceptions, no quiet preferences.
We mentor students and first-time founders at no charge, helping them ship real projects rather than classroom exercises.
We build websites and applications for NGOs and non-profits at heavily discounted rates, so a limited budget isn't a barrier to being found online.
Our team distributes food, clothing and essentials to people in need around Mohali — through the year, not once for the photographs.
Our team plants and maintains trees, giving something back to the environment the business operates in.
