About Me

I’m Er. Raushan Kumar – an entrepreneur, AdTech innovator, and EIR Fellow at IIT Roorkee’s iHub DivyaSampark. With a background in engineering and deep roots in grassroots development, my journey began with passion-driven problem solving in rural India and evolved into building scalable technology like deWall Ads.

I’m Er. Raushan Kumar — an Engineer by degreee 😊, and the founder of deWall Ads. I come from a small village in Darbhanga, Bihar (India). From topping district boards and showcasing science models nationally, to founding a tech-backed advertising startup, my journey reflects deep dedication to solving real-world problems.

I graduated from Motihari College of Engineering and have always been passionate about community-driven technology. From developing a Landslide Alerting System (patent filed, R&D funded by IIT Roorkee) to mentoring government school children for the Inspire Award and NMMSS, every step of my path has been impact-focused.

In 2023, I launched deWall Ads, now a registered private limited company, focused on turning empty walls into ad opportunities for businesses while creating self-employment in tier-2 and rural areas.

I currently serve as an Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) at iHub DivyaSampark, IIT Roorkee. I’ve been a student representative at the Department of Industries (Bihar), an NSS leader, and a scout.

My contributions range from social drives like cloth donation, blood camps, and village teaching — to startup accelerators like TIH IIT Bombay, where I secured grants up to ₹6L for my animation-tech proposal.

“The only reason I chose entrepreneurship was to give back to society at scale. I believe impactful ideas must become accessible platforms.”

🚀 My Mission

To transform ordinary walls and spaces into impact-driven advertising assets — empowering local communities, businesses, and youth along the way.

My mission is to build India’s 1st decentralized AdTech marketplace that transforms everyday streets, walls, and spaces into high-impact promotional platforms. I aim to unlock the hidden value of public and private infrastructure — turning them into engines of visibility, empowerment, and grassroots economic growth.

Through deWall Ads, I strive to connect local businesses, advertising agencies, and aspiring youth from across the country — enabling affordable outreach, self-employment, and community-led branding.

I believe every wall can tell a story, every ad can create opportunity, and every space holds the power to uplift someone’s future.

“We're not just painting walls — we’re building a nationwide platform for dreams, ideas, and visibility to thrive.”
