For starting any new business, the first step is to arrange finances. Finances are needed at each step one takes in this direction. It is the quantum of starting money that would determine the size of the enterprise, the quality of people hired, and the size of the market to operate in. Finance is the factor that determines growth in each step of business.

Alniche continuously looks for opportunities to partner with global companies and promotes deep engagement with medical experts. Strategic focus and a differentiated approach empower the company to strengthen new specialty divisions by addressing the therapy gaps. Inlicensing of novel products in future growth areas is a critical piece of the overall strategy of the company.

“My starting point to arrange finances was to invest all my life’s savings into the new venture, and I feel this is the biggest risk I have taken to achieve my goal” - Girish.

There is an old saying - “luck favors the brave”. Being a professional throughout his life, Girish had no previous experience of running an enterprise. And running an enterprise is a different ballgame altogether. One has to look into numerous different aspects of business ranging from manufacturing to marketing to hiring people and, above all, finances. A major risk of starting my enterprise was to leave the safety of a secure corporate job and venture into a new and unknown world of entrepreneurship.

The consolidation of strategic focus with a differentiated approach empowers the firm to follow the new specialty divisions where therapy gaps are significant. There are various factors focused by the firm regarding in-licensing addressing future growth areas, acquiring an existing base to build upon including technology, manufacturing, marketing, etc. Cost and time advantages are also 13

KREDITS:

Improve your credit score with a unique approach Kajal Dobhal | Innovative Zone

T

oday, the financial services space witnesses an upsurge of several credit consulting companies offerings some exclusive credit score management solutions.

Their primary target is to ensure proper money management, debt management or budgeting in favour of lenders as well as borrowers for better control of their finances. Owing to a myriad of advantages of credit consulting, especially in the credit repair process, commonalities are turning to the credit consulting companies to get enlightened with the basics of finance.

Hence, being in ‘the know’ of a reliable solution provider in this space is imperative.

Acknowledging this scenario, we decided to feature the profile of Kredue Fintech Private Limited aka KREDITS that has been dedicating its matchless solutions in this direction only. For this, we sat down for a face-to-face interview session with its Founder— Yashraj Bafna who discussed various aspects of his extraordinary business venture.

“Credit score and credit report are the two vital aspects of your financial health,” says Yashraj Bafna. His venture KREDITS has been incepted with the sheer endevour to improve client’s Credit Scores alongside assisting them to eradicate any issues or resolve any disputes in their credit report or closing their bad settled & written off account.

THE INCEPTION STORY

KREDITS was incepted in 2016 by Yashraj as a credit consulting company. Way before he thought of starting a venture of his own, he was managing his family- business which was a Non- Banking Financial Company. Here, he aptly accumulated years of experience in handling bank loans where he used to prepare project reports. Here, he was hit by a realization that the disputes in credit reports are a huge impediment in the loan sanctioning process, as the scenarios are such that even an individual with collateral of 10 Crores seeking a loan of 2 Crores couldn’t get it approved just because of low credit scores. This recognition propelled him to study and observe the nuances of the credit scores and credit reports. And after thorough research and discussions with Bureau’s and Bank Executives, he dipped his feet into this space as a zealous entrepreneur. As stated earlier too, the primary objective behind this venture has been an intention to help people not just improve their credit reports, but also, make them aware of the issues in their credit reports, and the closures of such disputed accounts also.

PLANS AHEAD

THE INCEPTION STORY

The visionary wants to inaugurate Edudite offices from 10 countries currently to at least 30 more and impact at least 10 million students in the next 5 years with www.matchmyuni. com becoming a household name in the study abroad sector across our targeted nations. “To be honest, I have never given a thought for the next 5 years, I want to keep learning and growing and contribute to Edudite’s success for as long as I can”, apprised Saksham

FROM THE FOUNDER’S DESK

Since early childhood, I have always been an extrovert and had an outgoing personality whether it was sports, extracurricular in school, or public speaking opportunities as and where I got.

This has a lot to do with the kind of background I come from.

My parents have been in the Education sector throughout their career and I was raised in an academically influenced environment. My mother is an IIT Roorkee alumnus and my dad is an engineer and served in central government as a scientific officer for 20+ years. They both lead a stable life with secured jobs for about 20 years in their career and decided to resign from their respective jobs and came into a full-time business to become an edupreneur, to serve and uplift the community by providing better education. This all happened when I was around 16 years old and it gave me a very solid base to make my decisions. In my college life, I led a local chapter of the world’s largest youth-run organization AIESEC which allowed me to travel, explore and see the world from a new perspective. The combination of the above, I believe, lead me to work in the education sector and that’s how I launched Edudite Consultancy Private Limited.

DEALING WITH THE UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES

In such times the group chairman, Mr. Sandeep Gupta who is Saksham’s father, becomes the guiding light of the team. Yes, he does perform SWOT analysis every now and then, and especially during unfavourable times. Even during the pandemic which took the world and many businesses by storm, they continued to grow and achieve new milestones.

THE MOST SATISFYING ASPECT OF THE ENTREPRENEURIAL JOURNEY

“When a student walks in or calls us to say “Thanks for changing my life”, which makes me realize the impact that Edudite is creating every day, is the most satisfying for me. Also, I love the flexibility and the playground you get to experiment and test your limits, sometimes we don’t even realize the potential an idea can hold. The need to be on toes and always be available for our stakeholders is also something that I cherish,” Mr. Saksham proudly shared.

DEFINITION OF SUCCESS

According to Mr Saksham, success is the journey and not the destination. Every day if one can move closer to his vision, one step at a time, he is on the right track. Here, he also revealed the top two skills that can help any leader become successful areDecision making – In an entrepreneur’s journey, there are ups and downs every day.

EmbarkingOnVoyage Digital Solutions Pvt. Ltd. Smita Kumar | Innovative Zone

EMBARKINGONVOYAGE “When it comes to marrying online with offline efforts, technology is not a driver, but it is critical in making it happen.” – Alison Corcoran, CMO, and President of Dentaquest Partnership.

There is no doubt about the fact that digital transformation is no more an option but a necessity. And, to make this possible, the existence of digital and data engineering services companies becomes extremely important. EmbarkingOnVoyage Digital Solutions Pvt. Ltd. is one such company that is known for its excellence in work and delivery. This has been made possible under the leadership and guidance of Abhishek Nag, the Founder and CEO of EmbarkingOnVoyage Digital Solutions Pvt. Ltd. The belief and hard work of Abhishek Nag make him absolutely eligible to be included in the upcoming edition of “The 10 Ace Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2021”.

INNOVATION MEETING EXCELLENCE EmbarkingOnVoyage is a digital and data engineering services company, where innovation meets excellence. Product and Data Engineering has been the roots of belief and excellence, hence the team takes pride in delivering high-quality digital solutions.

Abhishek Nag - CEO & Founder

THE PANDEMIC GAVE BIRTH TO EMBARKINGONVOYAGE As Abhishek quotes, “It was the pandemic (during the first lockdown) which made me realize how much it has affected the whole world. It gave a sharp reminder of our fragility giving true sense to the meaning that Money is nothing but a way to earn living.”

Further, he recalls, “In October 2020, my entire family was Covid affected. During this testing time, I was retrospecting myself, my learnings, achievements, ups, and downs during my 12+ years of employment. Finally, I summarized my side of professional experiences and expectations to myself. Priya and I had a long discussion on the same and, we decided to pursue our experience and knowledge for a broader purpose. A purpose which not only takes us to level up as an individual but also, lets us contribute towards economic growth and prosperity. In December 2020, we penned down entrepreneurship, identified a few additional core stakeholders, noted down goals, purpose, mission, vision, and how we wanted to pursue (delivery model). I never believed or targeted high-level plans because such plans never conclude meaningful contributions, instead, we did ground-level work.

We started working with clients, initially, we failed at a few but that became our solid foundation and learning ground, which eventually become our strength.”

cash flow, just by ensuring agile and on-time delivery following high-quality code and software development processes. EOV is 100% self-funded and bootstrapped.”

Abhishek says- During my groundwork, as a CEO, I concluded five basic things- Clear Communications, Collaborations, Partnerships, Employee Well-being, and Creating Career Roadmap for our colleagues who would eventually lead the delivery organization and ensure customer success. What else? Since then, we formally started with one client who referred us to many and we are growing through word of mouth and great client satisfaction.

DIFFERENTIATING FACTORS According to the 2020-started company, EmbarkingOnVoyage is customer-focused, agile, and innovative; carrying three decades of combined leadership experience of engineering delivery with a ready-to-use accelerator for reduced GTM.

This is how the idea of EmbarkingOnVoyage (EOV) was implemented!

INSPIRATION

As far as EOV is concerned, we believe in delivering the right experience, with the right expertise at a rational price point. The primary focus is on quality, experience, and customer success, and hence most of the business leads are through customer references.

The confident entrepreneur asserts, “Well, I believe that there are always new things to learn from each being and every one is unique. Many individuals in my life have inspired me during various phases of my career (Even the ones who weren’t kind to me). However, I am truly inspired by Mr. Ratan Tata who is a great visionary, risk-taker, philanthropist, and a true leader. Taking his thought leadership throughout my entrepreneurial journey, I aim to contribute towards Economic growth, Social upliftment, and a Greener environment.”

THE WORK CULTURE Abhishek mentions, “What binds us as a team is our value system. Our value system is the pillar of our organization’s culture and we all abide by the same. It’s the experience that we as leaders can pass on to the team that counts which is reflected by the amazing 80% of our team headcount growth through employee references. EOV is confident to onboard close to 1000 team members just through the employee referral system. We aim to keep our employee referral on-boarding about 80%. We trust our people, they have always fulfilled their responsibilities and go the extra mile in delivering value to the customers and the team. We believe in empowering our team rather than micro-managing.”

Abhishek voices his opinion by saying people make conscious efforts while entering entrepreneurship but for him, it was a radical decision. All elements fell into place and there was sheer willpower and confidence to do something better and the focus is completely on customer success through people empowerment.

VISION

ACHIEVEMENTS

The proud entrepreneur states, “I never say ‘MY’ vision or prospect. It’s ‘OUR’ company- What we are today, is because of our people and their trust in us. Our vision is to be recognized as genuine and valued digital engineering partners. We encourage each of our crew members (EOV employees are our crew members) to pursue their passion fearlessly. Passion has no boundaries and therefore, we nurture the Millenials and channelize their passions towards an exceptional career trajectory accompanied by innovation, excellence, and immense growth.”

The luminary has been successful in terms of employee strength since they have grown from 1 to 30 in less than 6 months.

Also, within the first six-month of the launch, EOV has won a few Long Term Agreement (LTA) with Fortune 100 companies.

FUTURE PROSPECTS

HANDLING COVID-19

The visionary acclaims, “As a part of our plans, we are confident to spread our arms in the enterprises and ISVs. Very soon, we will be onboarding a few leaders across Sales & Delivery to grow ourselves in certain geographies.”

Abhishek elucidates, “EOV’s inception was itself during the pandemic, hence the new norms of the pandemic is a part of the basic skeleton of our processes. The pandemic has removed the geographic boundaries thus partnering talent with the right opportunity was smooth and has helped us grow in a positive trajectory. Any startup always sails through the challenge between project win and resource onboarding. As a Founder and Executive Leadership member, I am fortunate to have people who came forward and collaborated with the confidence that we can make a positive impact on our clients and took over the complete delivery. In fact, our team members support us by expressing their intent to deliver work even without pay. Yes, ‘Without pay’, it’s certainly a big thing to hear and this shows how the people who surrounded us trusted our vision for EOV and leadership traits. We are delighted that since we started functioning, we have been maintaining a positive

CHALLENGE YOUR GOALS AND START FEARLESSLY Abhishek conveys, “There is nothing called ‘Right Opportunity’. It’s you who has to grab the opportunity and make it right. Do not worry about the failures since those are a part of the learning process. Challenge your goals without worrying about your finances. Just start fearlessly because you do not have anything to lose but everything to gain.

Work for yourself but have a bigger purpose where you can create a path for others towards a better life and together making the world a better place to live in.”

igital Marketing is one of the broad, complex and powerful segments in this era. With continual technological advancements, there are a plethora of options for ambitious entrepreneurs to carve out a career in digital leadership. Before 2020, digital leaders in marketing around the world were generalized to strategizing and executing with their knowledge and resources. Even though they looked at ideas and situations with a fresh lens and worked on them with creativity, analytical outlook, problemsolving skills and patience, 2020 turned everything upside down.

To deal with the changes, the digital marketing world is demanding multihat-wearing leaders. And its emergence has reached India–an economy constantly reinvented by digitization. Within this economy, in the bustling metropolis, Kolkata is a leading digital marketing agency scaling the growth of the Indian Digital Marketing space. We are talking about Proclivity Digitech. Helmed by two passionate leaders, Mr. K Srinivas Rao (Founder and Director) and Mr. Bhaskar Singh (CEO), the company is known for topnotch digital marketing solutions to clients worldwide.

DONNING THE HAT OF GLOBAL LEADERSHIP

In 2018, Srinivas founded Proclivity Digitech with a tunnel vision - to create the perfect digital agency primarily catering to SMEs and MSMEs. And his vision picked tremendous pace sprouting branches in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the USA. Srinivas’s incorrigible vision also inspired Bhaskar to join him on board.

Its clients come from diverse segments: Architecture, Builders, Restaurants, Takeaways, Automobiles, Food, Non-Profit, Medical Services, Insurance, and Application Development for Large Retail, Grocery and Delivery Stores.

“We have worked with brands like Kodax, Techfairy, Kiwi Tint, Indian Tadka, Maihan Middle Eastern Supermarket, and more,” says Srinivas.

His idealistic purpose enthralled a slender set of people, and they banded together to achieve this magnificent goal. Eventually, the small cadre expanded into a group of specialists dedicated to offering tailored solutions.

CONSTANTLY SHARPENING THE EDGES

Proclivity Digitech is on a mission to lead its domain, not follow. With that aim in mind, it continuously assesses itself and its competitors’ forte, identifying spots to fill and enhance. Its forte lies in two things: cost-leadership strategy and incorporating competitive advancements. Nowadays, customers are price sensitive and seek the best at the lowest price possible.

Bhaskar Singh CEO

“And we provide our clients with top-notch digital marketing services at prices that most businesses cannot match,” adds Bhaskar.

Second, the constant lookout for innovations. As a one-stop digital marketing firm, it uses Angular JS, Backbone, Codeigniter, CSS3, Drupal, HTML and others. Innovations are one of its USPs, and the right tools help create ‘Think tanks’ to help customers achieve their corporate goals.

While the resources help clients achieve business success, it’s the culture - that empowers relationships. To put it another way, the confluence of innovations, a welcoming work climate, an in-house team of experts, and innovative digital marketing solutions makes them a cut above others.

And the clients’ faith and positive testimonials say it all. Many clients have appreciated them saying, “Great and professional attitude, and they even completed the project on time.”

ALWAYS AN ON GO MODE

By constantly nurturing its prowess, Proclivity Digitech aligns itself with the market and its opportunities. “Our focus is to provide a 360° solution, including online branding, advertising solutions and other creative services,” says Srinivas, The experts-on-board work on the latest technologies to generate the best results in the least time. And every project is strategized to achieve desired results that align with the market and trends. Clients are updated at all times to ensure nothing stops their growth. The company builds a familial relationship with its clients. Every project starts with understanding their needs, and a customized strategy is implemented for execution. The entire process is wrapped in consistent and fast customer service.

The practice of staying aligned but innovative has helped it implement many novel marketing strategies and use new methods to market their offerings.

“Everybody loves to hear a story – and this is what we do to market our services,” shares Bhaskar. Proclivity Digitech publishes narratives of client dealings – how it has helped a client achieve their desired goal within a tight deadline. This also helps it better connect with its global audience.

The efforts are tantamount to in-depth R&D. Being on the cusp of innovative solutions, in-house research & analysis helps it improve, be it new products and services, processes, or new ways to interact with clients.

It helps in growing the business and continually generates better outcomes for clients. It helps in conquering novel challenges, like COVID-19. As soon as the Pandemic started spreading, Proclivity Digitech deployed its crisis management plan - one that addresses employees’ well-being, brand reputation, finance management, supply chain, and legal issues that the crisis may trigger.

STRONG AND ENJOYABLE CULTURE

A company’s culture is one of the most striking features that set it apart from the crowd. Lending credence to this, Proclivity Digitech is looked upto for its team’s positive attitudes and actions.
