Accel starts
Hackershala Summer Accelerator Program / Internship
Since 2019 every summer Hackershala hosts a cybersecurity accelerator program for anyone who is looking to kickstart or innovate in the field of technology.
The main aim of this program is to provide participants with a unique platform for 6 weeks where they will learn, innovate and deliver industrial level projects under the expert guidance.
We invite experts to share their knowledge on various subjects and from different industries like law enforcement officers, forensic experts, investors, researchers, judiciary etc.
This 6 weeks program is like an accelerator where you can kick start your journey into cybersecurity and technology using Hackershala’s resources.
Deliverable:
- LOR
- Certificate of Completion
- Certificate of Internship
- Hands on projects
How does it work ?
Students start by choosing their objectives
- Scaling a product already built
- Getting job ready
- Technical Research
- Trying to build a product of my own
They get assigned a mentor based on their choices who will guide them throughout their journey.
A final submission day will be done where all the development will be showcased in front of a jury composed of a diverse bench of experts. Through which the students may grab some good and promising opportunity

Adv. Mahir Gupta
Founder/CEO
Mentor
Our sweet friendly Mr. CEO who can turn into a tech ninja real soon.This guy used to be an ethical hacker (not sure of the ethical word) then pursued his law and simultaneously worked on
his business. That sounds too much ? no, not for this guy ! He is the one pulling all threads to make it worthwhile for the students of Hackershala. He has worked on many sophisticated cyber incidents and confidential government projects which he generally doesn’t talk about. You’ll find him either hosting business meetings or checking up on everybody in the office. This man is unpredictable !
