The online version of Manipal's well‑known Launchpad programme, now in its 2026 iteration, has been announced with the objective of connecting students and fresh graduates to the region’s top recruiters. The initiative builds on previous years’ success by expanding its digital recruitment support to a wider range of sectors across Karnataka.
Participants gain access to curated employer listings, virtual job fairs and personalised career coaching. The platform also incorporates an AI‑driven resume‑matching engine that aligns candidates’ skills with recruitment needs of partner companies such as Infosys, Wipro, and local SMEs in Udupi district.
Early feedback from pilot users indicates a 30% rise in interview invitations, while partnerships with 50 recruiters have already been secured. Source: Google News – Manipal.
