Where students become founders. CES is the official app of the Cathedral Entrepreneurship Society — the student-run entrepreneurship society of The Cathedral & John Connon School, Mumbai. It brings our programmes, stories, and alumni network to iPhone and iPad in a fast, beautiful, native experience. We exist to help students think, build, and lead like founders — turning curiosity into ventures, and ideas into impact. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Changemakers of Tomorrow — our flagship programme. Form a team, write your venture pitch, and submit it to the Organizing Committee, then track invitations, reviews, and decisions as your idea takes shape. • CES Connect — get first-hand advice from alumni working across tech, finance, law, and more. Browse the answered-question library, filter by sector or topic, search, and ask your own question. Alumni get a dedicated inbox to answer students and follow up. • The Venture — read every issue of our magazine in a clean, built-in reader. • Projects — explore live, student-led ventures and open their websites to learn more. • Visionaries — meet the founders, investors, and leaders who join us in conversation, and suggest a speaker you'd love to hear. • Our Team — get to know the Organizing Committee behind it all. DESIGNED FOR iPHONE & iPAD • A native app — a tab bar on iPhone, a sidebar on iPad. • Light and Dark Mode, Dynamic Type, and full support for Reduce Motion. • Pull-to-refresh, haptics, and system share built in. • Push notifications when an alum answers your question, when a student asks you one, or when a new issue of The Venture is out — each opening straight to the right screen. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No third-party SDKs and no trackers — only Apple frameworks. • Students sign in with their school Google account; alumni use a secure email and password, stored safely in the Keychain. • Prefer to look around first? Continue as a guest to browse the public app. From the Cathedral Entrepreneurship Society. Learn more at cathedralentrepreneurship.org.
