usinesses have gained utmost importance in contemporary society, particularly after the resolution of COVID lockdown. In that context, microand medium-sized enterprises are gaining strong foothold. I am grateful to have a team of dedicated professionals who discover and review such enterprises, to let our readers know the journey of inception and functioning of a business.

Having said that, I would like to emphasize on the urgency of bringing such relevant literature into contemporary writings as it will only nurture ideas that have potential to become magnanimous.

In India, information technology is divided into two categories: IT services and business process outsourcing (BPO). The sector’s contribution to India’s GDP has climbed from 1.2 percent in 1998 to 7.7 percent in 2017. According to NASSCOM, the sector generated US$180 billion in revenue in 2019, with export sales of US$99 billion and domestic revenue of US$48

billion, a 13 percent increase. India’s IT workforce is expected to number 4.36 million by 2020. Two-thirds of India’s IT services exports are to the United States.

and System Integration solutions. As a top IT firm in Kuwait, they provide an industry-standard integrated solution, IT consulting, IT maintenance, IT consultancy, and IT solutions.

The feedback that I receive from all the readers is my driving force and source of strength. At Swiftnlift, we strive hard to showcase some of the greatest talents in the business world. I’m very glad to present this magazine to all the readers.

Some print pieces have complementary components such as additional coverage, advertisements and still photography. There are regular columns by the editors with reflective articles to provide a window onto businesses and leadership.

Swiftnlift Business Magazine is not just a printed magazine but a source of constant inspiration. Everything we do derives from its long-standing character, approach and quality - while we continue to produce the print publication with as much dedication as ever.

MOHAMMED MUBIN MALLICK, Founder and CEO

Kiran Smart Tell us about Kiran Smart. Its vision and mission.

Which of your projects are you proud of and why?

Customers can get customised Computer Networking and System Integration solutions from Kiran Smart.

We provide an industry-standard integrated solution, IT consulting, IT maintenance, IT consultancy, and IT solutions as a top IT company in Kuwait. With extensive experience and technological know-how in robotic systems, we work with a variety of robotic manufacturers and firms throughout the world to provide our customers with the best possible solution. Kiran Smart is also Kuwait’s most innovative, well-known, and awardwinning A.I. Humanoid Robots firm.

One of our most recent projects was the Temperature Checking Robot for Children, which can help to check each child’s body temperature before they reach the school grounds. This is one of the noble efforts, in my opinion, because during the PANDEMIC, every parent is concerned about whether or not to bring their children to school. At the same time, school administrators seek to provide a safe and sanitary atmosphere for the students so that parents can have faith in the institution. So, by installing this Temperature Robot Called RUBYBOT, our robot played a vital part in gaining the trust of parents on behalf of the school.

Mission To provide innovative, reliable and high-quality services to clients throughout GCC and Globally.

Vision Achieve global brand recognition as a Finest Solutions and Services provider where customers find the optimal business solutions to their needs

What is your strategy to reach new industries and new customers?

Our strategy is really straightforward: we are innovative.

We strive to be one-of-a-kind in our solutions and services so that when we approach any industry to solve

an issue, we stand out from the crowd and are accepted right away. We use a variety of methods for new consumers. Our new consumers are primarily acquired through our website and social media platforms. Aside from that, our sales team finds new consumers through cold calling and direct visits.

What are the main challenges do you face with the recent trends in the industry?

We cannot dispute that there are challenges everywhere.

However, because we work without unique solutions and services for every business, there were no significant hurdles for us. However, the market’s hottest topics are artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation, all of which we’ve accepted and are offering to the sector.

What were the constraints you faced at the time of inception?

To be honest, we didn’t just have to deal with a few limits; we had to deal with a lot of them, and we’re still dealing with them. The main limits I’d want to mention are finance, smart team, innovative team, and loyal customers. Employees are being upgraded to the most cutting-edge and inventive technologies, and investors’ trust is being acquired by keeping up with what’s going

on in the market.

How do you manage the promotion of your project through social media outreach and email campaigns?

In the Digital Age, we must become more digitally focused in order to reach out to everyone. Because we are physically unable to travel to other nations, we can now easily traverse borders via social media platforms.

So, basically, we have a specific team that specialises in social media marketing and is in charge of everything.

Nowadays, having a strong social media presence is more crucial than having a strong email campaign.

What do you think about the expansion of Kiran Smart? What will be the plan?

We are planning to expand in different countries due to our demand for solutions and services, and we have some strategies in place to do so. Wherever possible, we will have our direct investment, distributor, partner, or joint venture, and it will depend on country to country and our expansion strategies. At the moment, the UAE, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and India are on our list of countries to expand to as soon as possible.

would be used to learn about the various universes in the cosmos. It will happen in the near future; it is only a matter of time.

Please tell us if there is a useful solution to the current COVID19 scenario?

Locally and globally, we designed and delivered UVC disinfection robots and Dry Mist Spray Disinfection Robots to combat COVID-19 situations where sanitary can be maintained and human life may be saved. Our other services robots have been deployed in hotels, hospitals, restaurants, cafés, and other locations to serve humans in order to preserve social distance, reduce human interaction, and maintain a clean atmosphere in order to reduce COVID 19 infection. We were fortunate to be able to assist humans with our various robot models during COVID 19 PANDEMIC.

CEO and Founder - Mohammed Mubin Mallick How do you see the future of startup firms in nearby times?

Because we see innovation and competition every day, the future of new companies has become unpredictable. In order to solve people’s problems efficiently, a startup must be truly unique.

How do you see AI impacting the future of application development?

In every industry, AI will take over 90% of the applications. Ai (Artificial Intelligence) is the buzzword in the market right now. People are looking for AI in every answer. Whether it’s robotics, documentation management, CCTV video surveillance, employee productivity, guest delight, cyber-security, and the list goes on, I’m all about integration. Artificial intelligence will be applied in the MARS mission, space projects, and future Moon missions. Simultaneously, AI skills would be so advanced that they

The Future Impact of Robotics By far most of respondents to the 2014 Future of the Internet peddling expect that advanced mechanics and man-made consciousness will penetrate wide sections of day by day life by 2025, with immense ramifications for a scope of businesses, for example, medical care, transport and coordination’s, client assistance, and home support. However, even as they are generally steady in their expectations for the development of innovation itself, they are profoundly isolated on how propels in AI and mechanical technology will affect the financial and business picture over the course of the following decade.

How advanced mechanics are changing the functioning universe of things to come
