Don’t send emails - send LinkedIn connection requests. Make sure your LinkedIn profile is up to date and make sure you have a photo. Then start messaging CEOs. You might need to purchase LinkedIn Premium to send inmail messages, but you can also just send free connection requests with a note if you can’t afford LinkedIn Premium (inmail just gives you more room to tell your story).
This approach is better because you put a face to the name, and you’re not a faceless email. Your response rate should be about 25%…at least one in four will be kind enough to reply…and if/when they say no, ask if they can connect you to someone in their network who is looking for an intern.

Add your university name to the tail end of your email. That helps, if someone doesn't go through your email content.
I’ve built an automated cold email solution that I designed myself. Feel free to reach out here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pmmonujha
