Co-ed, 24/7 food, tech-enabled, and no curfew: this startup gives student housing a face lift
Pune-based startup TribeStays wants to treat students like the adults they are, by not implementing curfews, and upping the value quotient with good food, breakrooms, WiFi, and more.
- Ltd., TribeStays claims to be India's only premium student housing brand.
- Although India has more than 34 million students migrating (domestically) for higher education every year, options for accommodation (in cities they move to) are few.
- TribeStays is piloting in Pune, near Symbiosis University campus, with 550 beds.
- According to a JLL report on Student Housing in 2017, the total number of beds in campus housing and private hostels available in India was close to 6.1 million.
- It wants to go international in another two-three years with Sri Lanka, the Philippines, the UAE, and Malaysia, and aims to be the number one player in student housing in Asia.
