Alpha Tube
Sign Course
"Welcome to Alpha" — published August 1, 2015
How it began
In 2013, Naresha Prabhu, a Deaf entrepreneur from Coimbatore, India, founded Alpha Tube together with a small team of students. The project had a strong vision but struggled to gain real momentum in its first year.
In 2014, Prabhu reached out and asked me to join as co-founder of a new project: Sign Course. What followed was four years of close collaboration — building e-learning content and platforms for the Deaf community, bridging Denmark and India, from 2014 to 2018.

Building Sign Course together
Together, we built e-learning content and structure for signcourse.org, continuing the mission Alpha Tube had started — accessible, sign-language-first education for Deaf learners.
After Sign Course
After our collaboration, Prabhu went on to build his own independent venture — a mobile app project developed together with the Indian company MilesWeb, based in Nashik, India.
