MeshUp - Neighbourhood social network

MeshUp is a one of its kind mobile and web platform with the single goal of creating thriving local communities in India. It is an ideal place for residents, freelancers, formal and informal businesses, politicians and NGOs to engage, collaborate and feel empowered.

Think about this. We all use Facebook to keep us connected to our friends and family. We rely on Twitter to follow people and topics that interest us. And we depend on LinkedIn to manage our professional connections. But we feel something is missing. What about our communities, the places where we stay most of our time, our neighbourhoods?

MeshUp is India's leading Social Network for Neighbourhoods. MeshUp sits at the intersection of two important trends: social and local. People living in metros due to their busy lifestyles are unable to fraternize with their neighbours and hence get left out on the happenings in their backyards.

MeshUp lets you:

STAY UPDATED WITH YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD
Know what is happening in your locality. Read local news, find answers, create polls and engage with your neighbours.

FIND LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE
Meet people with similar interests from your neighbourhood and develop great relationships with them!

ENGAGE WITH ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES
Connect with Ward Councillors, MLAs and MPs from your area and raise local issues related to your neighbourhood.

BUILD NETWORK
By collaborating on MeshUp you can build a thriving community and powerful local networks - one that is real

FIND ANSWERS
Need to know the best physician or the best cook in your area? Ask your neighbours

SHARE & BORROW
Looking for something? Just ask. All sorts of items ranging from board games and mobile chargers to rackets and mattresses are borrowed every day on MeshUp

Imagine the potential of creating a network of doctors, lawyers, professionals, students and that too in your locality! You may interact with people in your neighbourhood. It could be borrowing bicycles or badminton rackets, or deciding to play ball on a weekend, or planting trees within the neighbourhood. There is absolutely no limit to what the community engagement can evolve into. Which is the best spa or the fastest broadband in the area? Recommendation for a place to eat or a maid for hire? Or you may just want to ask for a company to embark on some kind of adventure and see who is up for it!

MeshUp is trying to build an ecosystem for your neighbourhood and your circle of people from school, college and workplace to unlock the real power of a group and community. It allows you to share, borrow, seek help during an emergency or respond to one. The natural outcome of this is a powerful local network. What you know is important. Who you know is more so, isn't it? MeshUp - Feel like you Belong!
