About

Hey there! So, picture this: I’m like the Indiana Jones of the startup world, except instead of hunting for ancient artifacts, I’m chasing down entrepreneurial dreams. For the past three decades, I’ve been riding the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship, from family businesses to bootstrapped startups to ones swimming in funding. My resume reads like a wild adventure novel – I’ve dabbled in everything from Logistics to Animation to Gaming to Agritech. And let’s not forget about my love affair with Fintech for the past decade. I’ve been helping financial service providers reimagine their futures and building the next big thing in finance. Think contextual banking bots, B2B mobile payment solutions, and AI-driven personal saving apps. to blockchain powered securitisation products Yeah, I’m that guy. But wait, there’s more! I’m not just a one-trick pony. I juggle as a business consultant for earlystage startups across the Fintech, Agtech, Wealthtech, and even Spacetech realms. I’m like a startup whisperer, doling out strategic advice and practical wisdom like it’s going out of style. Need help launching or scaling your baby business? I’m your guy. So, if you fancy grabbing a beer or coffee and chatting about how I can sprinkle some startup magic into your life, hit me up. Cheers!

  • At Green Collar Agritech solutions our focus is on Bringing trust, speed & transparency in spices quality assessment process.
  • Traditionally lab based chemical process are used to access quality these processes are time consuming and costly we at Green Collar Agritech Solutions are trying to revolutionize turmeric business with India's first truly portable NIR-based quality analyser!
  • Currently the assessments of spices vary from lab-to-lab place to place and with TARAM the process is standardised.
  • Also, lab test is subjective can vary based on how well-trained lab technicians are and in the absence of trained professionals the results vary also Finding experts across geographies is difficult on the other hand TARAM with its ease of use, can be used by anyone with a cellphone.
  • The other important thing is TARAM is environmentally friendly as it does not use any chemicals, cutting down the cost of testing by 50%.
  • TARAM is 100% portable, the Field-ready & battery-operated Taram can be easily carried by men and women anywhere from Farmgates to Farms to Labs.
  • Traditional testing time of spices can take hours, and depending on the distance, location geography availability of labs etc it can even take days for the test results to come back. Leading to loss of time and resources for both farmers and traders.
