About

“Strategy is not a solo sport – even if you’re the CEO.” I am a leader who can play any requisite role to complement teamwork and achieve results. Over 25 years, through various opportunities in IT, I have evolved and am still evolving. My passion, creativity and self-belief have put me where I am. I have a crystal clear vision; I follow the challenging mission, and I am a tough taskmaster. I value time more than anything and believe in the theory of karma. Yoga, photography, travelling and workouts are any time yes for me. As the co-founder and CEO of Synersoft Technologies, I have led the company since 2008 in developing and commercializing innovative IT solutions for SMEs in India and beyond. As a qualified Engineer, CFA and a dual management postgraduate in marketing and finance, my technical skills are enhanced by a strong strategic planning, fundraising, investor relations, and business development background. I am passionate about creating affordable and simple IT products that enable SMEs to achieve business continuity and competitiveness through simple and affordable data protection, information security, and IT standardization. One of our flagship products, BLACKbox, is a branded B2B Hardware+Software+Cloud product that has won multiple awards and recognition for its impact and value proposition. I am also involved in specific technology commercialization projects that address the challenges and needs of SMEs in various domains.
