Behind the success, there is a story of infinite struggles Do you remember that golden period of our life time? Yes, the school days. I can visualize you reminiscing them. The most exciting and creative part was the ‘Science Project.’ I still remember in grade 8, I had to prepare a windmill for it, but where to start from, how to start, what material is needed, etc. Myriad of things were running through the cerebrum of my brain. I spent countless nights and days in just getting a rough idea of it. Now, the most crucial and challenging part was to convert it into reality. But, the immense hard work of my team and me gave wings to it and created the amazing model of ‘windmill.’ What I learnt from there is that there is no alternative of hard work. The formula works everywhere for everyone. Same is with the business world. To build a successful empire, the secret is to work hard and smart. In the edition, ‘The CEOs of the Year 2020,’ Business Connect has put tremendous efforts to showcase the stories of extremely talented and laborious CEOs. Their entrepreneurial journey is full of hardships, but the inspiring part is that how they sail through them.

Starting from nothing, then gradually with the right vision and strategy, they move towards accomplishing their goals and taste success. The trajectory is full of crosses, but these empowering facets swirl against the odds. The greatest challenge for an emerging entrepreneur is how to finance the business and the management of resources. With exemplary tactics and mindset, they find a route to cross them. Another obstacle is to find the right manpower with the suitable skill set.

People do not trust the startups as they are new and novice; generally they opt for established and famous MNCs. If they join also, then they do not believe in continuing for long. Working with inexperienced and training them actually empower the young minds and provide them enough confidence to stabilize their foot in the entrepreneurial space. Clients also want to deal with famous and experienced companies because they occupy a strong hold in the market. Trespassing this challenge by delivering the finest services and winning the trust of the client base, some leaders have shown their exceptional leadership skills.

COVER STORY

RESIDENT HOLDINGS GROUP

SPEARHEADING THE GLOBAL MARKET WITH ITS EXTRAVAGANT MERCHANDISE

T

he sphere of international enterprises has ventured on a variety of verticals, which has generated an arena of opportunities for organizations all over the globe. This revolutionary approach has made organizations to affiliate with the evolving market and modern framework, to stay competitive in this volatile ecosystem. Further, this has provoked entrepreneurs around the world to instill new ideas and strategies and craft a proper communication channel, to successfully promulgate the initiatives amongst their team. Technology has always been the prime platform aiding an organization’s success and there is no leader that can stay immune to the force of technological shift. With a clear vision of the landscape of current market, Robbie Antonio stands as one of the global pioneers of South East Asia with his brainchild, Resident Holdings Group—a multinational conglomerate, which focuses on dazzling the world with heterogenetic luxurious products and services that encompass homes, furniture, fashion accessories, skincare, cosmetics, apparel, food and service franchises and digital services curated by luminaries in the fields of art, architecture, entertainment, music, and fashion.

STORY OF THE MULTILINGUAL CELESTIAL Robbie Antonio is a supremely cultivated personage in the field of real estate, tech entrepreneurship, and is further an art patron. As a notable staunch of consumer branding, the founder and CEO has worked with various celebrities and influencers for worldwide projects representing nineteen (19) companies under Resident Holdings Group in the fields of property, financial technology, e-commerce, home accessories, beauty, fashion, jewellery, food, and electronics.

Presently, Antonio has acquired $82M square feet of developed, in-progress, and managed properties under his grasp. He is also the CEO and Founder of ‘Antonio Development’ in New York. Here, he got the opportunity to partner with the Pei Partners and the late I.M.Pei in constructing ‘The Centurion’, one of the most desirable condominiums in all of Manhattan. Further, an exemplary of his forte is leading ‘Century Properties’

as a Managing Director, where he contrived $2.1 billion of branded developments and elevated the company to new heights by working with some of the lionized billion-dollar organizations like Trump Organization, Armani Casa, Versace Home, Philippe Starck, Missoni Home, and Paris Hilton.

THE PATH TO CRESCENDO The flagship company of this group was ‘Revolution Precrafted’, which was focused on providing pre-crafted homes and structures. After the tremendous achievements of this presiding, celebrity-curated foundation, Robbie Antonio founded this brainchild Resident Holdings Group at Makati, Philippines, in Apr 2019.

Through its impeccable performance in the last 10 months, Resident Holding has been showing its growth, which is further succored through the companies under Resident Holdings. The holding company has conceived ‘Renegade Branding Concepts’, ‘Renaissance Touch’, ‘Relevant Medium’, and ‘Reach Medium’. Renegade provisions unparalleled concepts on retail and business opportunities, all under one roof. Renaissance Touch is a celebrated e-commerce site for furnishing and decorating interior spaces.

These prospective projects have intensively assisted Antonio, in progressing to new heights of brand marketing. Furthermore, they helped him in unveiling his other illustrious ‘e-commerce and e-service’ brands that came under Resident Holdings—Rebel Specs Design, a brand that features eminent eyewear having sleek, top-notch design and unbeatable prices. Radical Couture Concepts provides cost-effective and paramount fashion trends. Regal Jewelry Selection sells a wide variety of gorgeous ornamental collection (branded rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets).

In addition to this, Antonio has established many more significant e-commerce platforms for numerous verticals: Radiant Beauty Selection featuring luminary beauty products, and Replenish Corporation that sells celebrity-endorsed nutrition supplements. Roaring Pets that ventured on a wide variety of celebrated products sufficing pet needs, Rascal Kids Collection, which comes as a collection of mom and kids’ toys, apparels, stuff and necessities inspired by various influencer babies and kids.

THE CREATION OF CELEBRITY CURATED CHARMS One of the brands that Antonio focused on in the past few months was his celebrity-curated jewelry statement company. Regal Jewelry Collection already proved its identity in the market since it started, with its classical and stylish collections inspired by major Celebrities and Influencers, no wonder the brand made its mark in its own business segment. Refining the fashion in accessory jewelries, Regal provided shine and sparkle through its products, from earrings, rings, bracelets, watches and necklaces.

“To create a statement in every accessory you wear that matches along with your mood and style, that’s what Regal is all about.” Robbie noted.

CHALLENGES THAT PAVED THE ROAD TO HIS DESTINY The foundation of Resident Holdings is laid down by the successful intervention of its unicorn startup, ‘Revolution Precrafted’. Inaugurated in 2015, Revolution Precrafted had successfully spread its network over 31 countries within Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North and South America, and the Caribbean. However, the company was established in an era, when pre-crafted homes were quite oblivious and redundant subjects to the world. Hence, to generate cognizance of pre-crafted structures throughout the globe, Antonio partnered with some of the trendsetting designers and architects to fabricate modulated structures and homes.

After the 4 years of unparalleled sustainability, Revolution Precrafted has become the only recognized startup in the Philippines, with a turnover of $1billion. Antonio asserts that the accomplishments of ‘Revolution Precrafted’ are the major benefactors that helped him bring all his projects under one umbrella: Resident Holdings Group. Today, the company stands as a leading enterprise in Southeast-Asia, looking forward to global progression and interests in the fields of social media marketing, franchising, tech-based legal, medical, and accounting services.

Groundbreaking Roadmap for Future Prospects “You have to make everyone fathom the value of your concepts before you can go ahead with them” asserts Robbie Antonio.

Current regulatory limitations and standards have made it very disruptive for businesses to reach their optimal efficiency. Other than this, a leader further needs to account for operations, marketing, and logistics.

Overall, a CEO needs to lead all aspects of the business to make it succeed. With a robust mindset, Antonio envisions to be prepared with different paths and work hard, to take his brainchild to new heights and retaliate to this volatility. The company has incubated over 20 business units under Resident Holdings but aspires to come up with new business ideas. In the next 5 to 10 years, Resident Holdings is aiming to sustain as a trendsetting contemporary conglomerate, propagating in more domains, and truly become the global game-changer in e-commerce, home accessories, beauty, fashion, jewelry, food, and electronics.

A TOKEN OF ADVICE FROM THE FOUNDER’S DESK “Make your own decisions and be responsible and accountable for your actions. Have perseverance, strong will, and passion to succeed, persistence to learn new things, acquire new ideas, constantly challenge yourself, and never give up until you reach where you want to be. Lastly, get a good mentor in the way.”

Robbie Antonio

AGARWAL ESTATES

A One Stop Solution For All Your Real Estate Needs

About the CEO Manoj Agarwal is a US citizen and an ex techie, who has spent a large part of his career in Cisco. What he excelled in while in the IT industry was to understand that processes matter more than individual brilliance and are the only ways to successfully scale operations.

he act of buying and selling properties in India is riddled with a lack of trust and integrity.

Issues of transparency and fraud are very common in the real estate field. But things are changing for the positive, and Agarwal Estates offers incredible solutions to all your real estate needs.

Based in Bangalore, Agarwal Estates is a real estate firm that was founded in 2012. Their services have grown organically based on their customers’ needs. They started with rental advisory and have now grown to become a full-stack real estate firm that includes buying and selling of all real estate (residential, commercial & land), rental and leasing to both consumers and corporates, interior design and contracting, loans and allied services.

In terms of unique offerings in their property management services, they work in a manner where they manage both residential & commercial properties, along with rental guarantees for selected properties to the respective

owner, eventually providing hassle-free and productive tenant management for the owners.

ly, they imbue in them a sense of purpose based on the awareness that their work is responsible for happiness of the families of their customers.

How it was started.

After Manoj Agarwal returned from the US and while in his last year with Cisco, he had experiences with real estate brokers which made him recognize that there was a significant trust gap in the market. As an owner of an apartment in the U.S. and as a consumer in India, he observed the gap in quality of service and trust in the two markets. In spite of being thousands of miles away from the US, he used to receive the committed rent regularly in his account. He observed that there was a huge contrast in the work and ethics of the real estate agents of these two markets. At times, it got really challenging for him with the agents in India with whom he had to validate and cross-check all the information received during the process.

In order to inspire a workforce, there are a multitude of motivational strategies. Recognition of efforts on a constant basis is what oils the machine.

“Our employee of the year is our youngest employee. When he joined us, he had no background in real estate nor did he know how to operate a computer, but he had a great attitude and was willing to learn. When our employees see him go on a company sponsored all-expense-paid trip to Dubai which was a part of the award he won as employee of the year, they know that they too can achieve anything if they put their mind to it.”

Let’s take a glance at the story of its struggles.

All of this led to a singular vision for Agarwal Estates during its inception - To redefine trust and change the perception of real estates services in India.

The Story of Struggle One of the biggest challenges faced by the firm is acquiring talent that fits into the values espoused by its founder. As several real estate businesses have been built on a culture of short term gains, the talent available in the real estate market is lacking in values. This is primarily because they have not seen mentors who put a premium on trust and long-term relationships.

This they do by consistently providing: • Completely transparent service with no hidden agenda • Empowering customers by providing them with knowledge • A process-driven approach that is predictable and allows customers visibility into what to expect

For this reason, Agarwal Estates has endeavored to build its core team with leaders who are not from the real estate sector. The team includes folks with a background in media, medicine, IT and investing where they were assembled for their attitude and ethics and then embarked on a steep learning curve. The process-oriented approach coupled with its learning culture ensures that new members in the team have the best resources at hand to understand the market and gain domain knowledge that quickly positions them above their counterparts in the industry.

Speaking of how his clientele has grown over the years, Manoj says, “As we have never believed in advertising, all of our business comes through the references of our customers. Our customers are those who come to us knowing that they can expect to be served in a transparent and ethical manner and the service comes at a cost. We do not subsidize our services as we’re aware of the value we bring to the table.

Those who are looking for superior quality of service and trustworthy advice prefer us.”

By meticulously and through hard work, with a focus on building relationships and creating a culture of continuous improvement, Agarwal Estates has emerged as pioneers in this domain

On the subject of keeping up with trends, the firm believes that change is the only constant and the only way to thrive is to continuously learn and evolve. The team here is entrenched in a learning culture that allows it not just to keep pace with but stay ahead of the curve as far as market trends go.

Looking ahead, Manoj Agarwal says, “Agarwal Estate’s vision is as humble as it is audacious - to change the perception of real estate services in India. The market will go through its evolutions and with our learning culture and focus on long term relationships, we will thrive and innovate. The best is yet to come.”

Agarwal Estates places a strong emphasis on employees and consistently provides them with motivation and encouragement. Employees in turn feel energized to be a part of the organization. This is ensured by instilling a sense of pride derived from the perception their brand enjoys in the market. In addition to this, they invest in their employees by training and coaching them, enabling them to feel like they are consistently getting better and are on a path to mastery. Last21

Bringing A Difference Into The World Of Healthcare Through AI Indranil Roy | Business Connect Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare is projected to grow at an immense rate. AI can potentially improve healthcare by bringing up preventative medicine and new drug discovery.

“Our solutions have been implemented in large public and private sector organizations in India and the Middle East through our partners. I subscribe to news feeds as well as make it a point to dedicate time every day to follow websites and key LinkedIn personalities for news articles. We also actively participate in well-known technology and healthcare events and engage leaders in the field of healthcare to understand and debate our next area(s) of R&D focus.”

Chandrashekhar, CEO - Bionworks

“The focus of my entire career has been healthcare information technology. I started my career as a software developer in 1996 with MEDICOM, one of the earliest trendsetters in this industry. Subsequently, I moved upwards to hold leadership positions with iSOFT as the head of software products, and then to Computer Sciences Corporation (now known as DXC) as the delivery head for healthcare IT solutions for the Asia and the Middle East region.

FUTURE PROSPECTS. The organization has been actively pursuing a growth strategy via OEM agreements with resellers and system integrators with complementary services and offerings.

With the understanding that many more problems could be solved if we used technology in the right way, I founded Bionworks in 2016 to build software products to help healthcare enterprises agile and efficient.

We look forward to expanding into the US market in the next financial year as well as establish offices in Dubai and Singapore to service our OEM partners and customers in those regions.

Our challenges have been different at every step of our journey. Overcoming the deep-rooted fear of failure, finding the right team, the right customers, ensuring cash flow to keep the business afloat in times of uncertainties were a few challenges. We have been fortunate to have had the unflinching support of our customers including Medanta and Artemis Hospitals who have been an integral part of our journey in helping us ensure that we are solving the right problems.

MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS The solutions have helped customers win numerous awards in innovation and quality excellence in India and the middle east.

Today I work with my partners to make decisions on our strategy daily, I drive business development efforts, I engage our customers to help solve their problems, I work with my delivery team on the ground to guide and streamline their plans, I work with my engineering team on making decisions and finally with potential investors and partners to ensure business and cash flow.”

We are very proud of remaining bootstrapped yet being able to achieve over a million dollars in revenue by the 4th year of our operation. We owe this to our partners and our customers who have always trusted us to do what is best for them.

COPING WITH THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY. The team continues to experiment with new technology and advances in cloud computing and machine learning every day to learn and leverage them to solve problems for its clients.

CoronaVirus Epidemic Symptoms, Preventions, and Saftey Precautions

About Coronaviruses (COVID-19) COVID-19 commonly known as Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that can cause diseases ranging from the common cold to more severe respiratory diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV). Some of the diseases transmit easily from direct contact of person to person. COVID-19 is a new virus and an epidemic disease that has not been previously identified in humans and it has no proper vaccine scientifically.

This virus was initially detected in China, that it is a novel coronavirus (referred as a scientific term COVID-19) that is responsible for the outbreak of human pneumonia in Wuhan city in China. The Authorities in China and worldwide WHO team is conducting further investigations to get a better understand of where this disease came from, how it is spread and what are the clinical severity of illness in humans by this disease.

What are the symptoms of COVID-19?

People who are targeted by this coronavirus COVID-19 may have little to no symptoms about this. People usually do not aware of the exact symptoms of this Virus because they may not know if they have those symptoms of COVID-19 as they are quite similar to a cold or flu.

These symptoms may take up to 14 days to appear after the exposure to COVID-19 and they are spread via coughing and sneezing on direct contact.

Some of the common symptoms included: • Common Fever • Chest Pain • Chills • Rapid Heartbeat

• Headache • Sore Throat • Kidney Failure • Cough and Cold • Difficulty in breathing • Pneumonia in both of the lungs In severe cases of coronavirus, the infection to a person can lead to death because it is incurable but can be vaccinated to lower the cause.

What are the risks of getting corona COVID-19?

The public health risk associated with COVID-19 in Wuhan, China, is nither low or high for India and for Indians as they are the neighboring country. The estimated cases in India till date are three conformed cases and they are estimated to be lower.

India has not many direct flights from Wuhan city of China (which is the major city of virus) and the volume of travelers arriving indirectly from China is low in India. However, at this time, the Government of India and the Ministry of Health recommends that Indians avoid non-essential travel to China due to an outbreak of COVID-19.

It is also recommended that people avoid traveling to the province of China, including the major cities of: 1. Ezhou 2. Wuhan 3. Huanggang 4. Beijing 5. Shanghai 6. Hubei 7. Zhejiang 8. Guangdong

then throw the tissue away in the trash.

• Make yourself clean and disinfected if you frequently touch some objects and use a regular household cleaning spray or wipe to get clean.

• Do follow the recommendations of how to use a facemask for getting safe.

This recommendation to avoid these cities’ travel is because they have heavy travel restrictions by Chinese authorities to prevent the spread of Coronavirus COVID-19.

Prevention and Safty tips for Coronavirus Epidemic Current evidence suggests person-to-person spread is efficient when there is close contact and it is most commonly spread through coughing and sneezing by an infected person. The WHO and other agencies of the world for health are continually reassessed as new information becomes available for the virus.

Facemasks for prevention should be used by people who show some symptoms of COVID-19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others. The use of facemasks is also advisable for people of the city where the cases are crucial. It is also very important for health workers and people who are taking care of someone infected in close settings (at home or in a health care facility at the hospital).

Right now, there is currently no vaccine available to prevent coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The best way to get prevented by this disease is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, as a reminder, it is always recommended that everyday preventive actions such as simple tips can help to prevent the spread of respiratory diseases and virus, including: • Always avoid close contact with people who are sick and part of this disease.

• Simply avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth during the day.

• Try to stay at home when you feel you are sick.

• Do cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue paper and

Some precautions Some most basic precautions are to wash your hands often with soap and water for at least more than 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom and before eating. Keep yourself clear after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.

If soap and water condition is not readily available in some places, use a high alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% of alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty or you coughed or sneezed.

CEOs

OF THE YEAR 2020

Vikas Bhonsle | (CEO) Crayon Software Experts India Pvt. Ltd.

Ashwathy Nair | Business Connect Perseverance and smart work are indispensable components that make a successful entrepreneur. But to be a CEO, it requires a certain level of aura and instinct to lead an organization and its team towards success.

Top CEOs do not hesitate to make great decisions; they rather stand out for being more strong-minded, while taking decisions. They make decisions faster and with greater conviction. They do so persistently— even amid ambiguity and in unfamiliar domains. To that end, high performing CEOs also know when not to decide. But once a path is chosen, the successful CEO drives the company without a flicker, displaying a greater sense of purpose and urgency.

CEOs differ significantly from the executive population across many personality traits. Two attributes, in particular, stand out: one is the will to take up appropriate risks and second being capitalizing on opportunities. We consider these habits the “lifeblood” of the CEO’s personality.

In our edition, CEOs of the year, 2020, the team of business connect had a conversation with Mr. Vikas Bhonsle, CEO at Crayon Software Experts India Private Limited.

Vikas Bhonsle has been in the IT industry for about 25 years now. Having worked in one of the fastest-growing sectors alongside the world’s fastest-growing economy, varied portfolios, and geographies, he has the advantage of knowing the pulse of the local market with an eye on the international trends. It is his forte to interact with customers, partners, and decision-makers at all levels. Before joining Crayon Software Experts India Pvt Ltd, Vikas was associated with Dell India for about 14 years. He was last placed as the General Manager for the Mid-Market business and within Dell; he had the opportunity to manage multiple profiles and portfolios. In addition to all these, he also has an International Marketing exposure as a Brand Manager for the South Asia region.

We present you a short extract from the conversation with Vikas Bhonsle - CEO at Crayon Software.

HOW DO YOU DEFINE LEADERSHIP? HOW DO YOU EMPOWER YOUR WORKFORCE? I am a big believer in Level 5 leadership – which is leading by humility, a fierce desire and will to do well in all aspects of the business. It’s about placing the organization and your people’s needs before your own personal aspirations www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 2 | Special Edition | June 2020| INDIA

and keeping them at the core of your actions.

I believe that the hallmark of a true leader is not only in how much one achieves but, in the way,one nurtures talent, coaches and mentors’ colleagues. A true leader not only should care deeply about organizational development but also about his teams and the individual careers of his people. Empowering the workforce begins first by laying down the vision for the organization and communicating the same across the ranks in the organization. Then it is about making sure you delegate with authority, allow the team to take risks, innovate and provide the resources to be successful. What is also important is that you create a feedback mechanism that checks the progress against expectations, do the necessary course corrections and progress accordingly.

I would rather frame my thoughts around learning rather than looking up to someone. Learning is the only constant. Meaning there are a variety of things you learn from different people and leaders. My simple advice to anyone who speaks to me is about always doing the hard yards with a fierce desire to keep getting better every day.

BEING AT THIS POSITION, WHAT ARE THE RESPONSIBILITIES THAT YOU HANDLE? 5 years ago, I was responsible for setting up the India business of Crayon. Within a short span of time, we have established ourselves as one of the best choices for a complete software solution in the Indian market. With our network becoming stronger and expanding in the Indian market, my role now is to provide strategic, financial and operational leadership. Additionally, I’ll be responsible to mentor members of staff at all levels, foster their growth, encourage them to step up and be a major contributor to the company’s success.

As a framework, the Crayon Values are - Integrity, Pace, Agility, and Quality.

WHAT ARE YOUR MOTIVATION STRATEGIES? HOW DO YOU KEEP YOURSELF AND THE WORKFORCE INSPIRED ON A TIMELY BASIS? Providing the right levels of empowerment to your teams with appropriate feedback and recognition for their work goes a long way in keeping the workforce motivated and inspired. Building a culture of respect, meritocracy and an unwavering focus on career growth and development for the workforce is a must. And when your organization and people do well – that’s inspiration enough to keep me going.

SHARE WITH US YOUR STORY OF STRUGGLES, IF IT DOES EXIST. WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM IT? Struggle is a part and parcel of everyone’s life.

Each one of us had our own set of challenges. I will be very honest to tell you that struggles, and challenges only make you stronger and my wherewithal to deal with that challenge has grown me as an individual. It has made me resilient, very adaptive and taught me to deal with ambiguous situations WHO DO YOU LOOK UP TO AND WHAT DO YOU CONVEY FURTHER TO THE ONES WHO LOOK UP TO YOU?

WHAT ARE THE VALUES AND ETHOS DO YOU ENCOURAGE IN THE COMPANY? Our world is facing some of the greatest social and environmental challenges of our time. Crayon is committed to building a greener and more sustainable future through recognizing our impact on the planet and improving our efforts in fair labor and business practices, responsible use of resources and ensuring equality for all. And as a global company, we believe we can bring in the biggest change by empowering our teammates and partners to exemplify our values in their local communities.

1. Integrity builds trust, which is essential to sustaining our position as an integral part of our customers’ IT solutions team.

2. Pace ensures we identify opportunities rapidly and execute value propositions to customers faster than our competitors.

3. Agility fuels our innovations to remain the global leader in intelligent technology and cloud-based solutions.

4. Quality is tied to integrity, as we have exacting and high standards to drive successful project outcomes and ongoing customer retention.

In my personal life, I’d always like to keep things very simple and follow 5 key aspects; Spirit of Giving, Lead with Humility, Kindness to all, Leadership with fierce desire to succeed, Respect to one another.

HOW ARE YOU GIVING BACK TO SOCIETY? We have 45 offices around the world, and in each of those cities, our employees are encouraged to volunteer their time and effort to help make a difference. This is because of HQ’s culture of caring.

Last year we partnered with a non-governmental organization Child Rights and You (CRY) which aims to restore children’s rights. Under the umbrella of CRY, Crayon launched a project called ‘Sparsha’- a multi-stakeholder approach involving community, parents, teachers, schools, and government. To remove hurdles that stand in the way of a child’s right to education we adopted Sparsha Center in Sion, Koliwada, Mumbai. Now this project is taking care of 100+ kids from class 1 to class 12 from Sion center. While Crayon as a company continues to support such causes, we also encourage our employees and people around us to volunteer in social causes such as blood donations, minimizing carbon footprints, reducing waste, and many more.

an industrial level and gives them the opportunity, to welcome more clients.

TECHNICALLY ADVANCED TO THE DATE “We have always updated ourselves with the latest software, communication and cloud technologies, to stay abreast of the digital evolution”.

Mr Reddy.

In 2016, GND got a project with one of the largest telecom companies to design, manufacture and supply an IoT device as an OEM partner to enable the telco to launch its first enterprise IoT solution business in India.

With technology at its core, GND Solutions stays abeam of the State-of-the-art inventions in the market. A few examples of their tech-advancements are the CAT-M1, NB IoT and smart devices which are focused on producing solutions for the enterprise and industrial customers. The prime USP of these products are that they operate with little power and has a long-range communication capability.

GND delivered the product in record time while meeting all the quality standards, along the way developed an application to show the end to end capability of the product, which enabled GND to launch its own IoT solution offering in the market in 2018. Since then, the company is provisioning a wide variety of digital solutions and services, for national and multinational enterprises.

MAINTAINING EMPLOYEES AS ASSETS Employees are the keystones of assessing a company’s market image, quality and growth. The company consists of a team of high intellect and creativity. Through proper monitoring, the company keeps track of its team’s performance and provide appropriate and satisfying resolutions against their issues. Further, to recognise their employees’ work, the company appreciate and rewards its employees, which also helps in boosting their morale and focus on work.

IMPACT OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT “Today’s R&D forges the road to tomorrow’s opportunity”. Acknowledging this fact, Mr Reddy believes that many of their initial approaches have helped them in adapting to the trends while incorporating new ones in the industry. An excellent example of this statement is the incubation of LPWAN (LoRa) in their technology road map. LPWAN is a low power wide area network that allows long-range communications at a low bit rate with very high efficiency of power consumption on IoT devices and network. GND solutions always had a captivating approach towards emerging technologies; investing in LPWAN based technologies helped them devise many of their products and services, thus, elevating them into the global market.

Also, have transparency while communicating with clients and learn to do smart-work. These efforts shall place you on the next level. The market is very competitive, and it doesn’t matter whether you’re new or old.

What you bring to the table justifies, how much capable you are as a reliable service provider”.

By performing thorough R&D in this segment, the company own a large client in Australia, which helped in progressing in the global market.

nergy saved is energy generated. What happens when the consumption rate is higher than the rate of production? Then comes a time when only a few , who could pay a higher price gets to use it. Others are denied. Industrial fuels like , Oil, coal and other forms of natural gas take millions of years for formation. If we keep using energy faster than the rate at which it can be produced, we end up finishing all of it. The rate at which we are using the non-renewable sources of energy, it is said that these would last for 40 odd years. Can you imagine life after that? The mere imagination gives goosebumps.

THE RISE AND RISE OF OPEL: THE JOURNEY FROM RS 0.075 TO 750 LACS Mr. YD CHAVAN, the managing Director at Opel recalls the journey. It was in 1996, when I worked as a project engineer, Back then, I had to go for the commissioning of the baby boilers required for the process heating requirements. One day, the owner of a company came to take us from our office to start the boiler supplied by us in his latest car. I thought he must be highly educated with a very high profile business background. After I fixed all the problems and gave all the trials, besides satisfying him about the equipment, I prepared the commissioning report about all the parameters. When I requested the owner to sign the report which I needed to show my Boss for proper handing over the equipment. I was shocked to hear him.

Here’s a story of a company that has successfully executed more than 250 projects helping industries to save a huge amount of energy costs by way of saving precious fuel being used in industry , Being awarded as the best technology provider in energy conservation field from CII in 2019, Opel Energy Systems has helped many Big Industrial houses and helped them to save huge amount of energy with maintenance-friendly and smooth operating Waste Heat Recovery Systems, and in turn, every customer that Opel has worked with has given Opel a repeat www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 2 | Special Edition | June 2020| INDIA

THE CREED OF SPEED The world is changing. The ones who work to grow have to learn. Learn to adapt. If they don’t, they perish. The fact that Opel has been around for 16+ years is the testimony of its adaptability. The company keeps finding out new and innovative concepts/ projects for saving fuel costs. One of the projects is- waste heat recovery system on engine test beds installed in TATA MOTORS LTD. For this project,Opel received first prize as an innovative heat recovery system from CII Delhi in 2018, Opel had received 5 times first prize as a energy service company from MEDA .

The MD believes in the practice of giving something more to the clients for which they have not paid you. This he says, will increase your credentials about you & will help in future business. it off myself, revealing that he had only studied till grade 3. This opened my eyes & thought process started I am an engineering graduate & he is 3rd std pass non-qualified person running an industry & having Honda City car with him & I was having 6-year-old Bajaj M80?? , something was wrong . Thought process started same day i& Finally, it took another 4 years to start my own activities due to family responsibilities & in Nov 2000 I started my own proprietary company named Opel Engineers and two years later converted into Opel Energy Systems Pvt Ltd.

SNEAK PEEK INTO OPEL’S FUTURE The venture was started with a mission to offer simple and workable solutions for conserving thermal energy, with cost economic propositions, which will help industries save precious fuel energy, which is cash saving and in turn, helps Nation to save energy. Opel has currently 250+ projects operating in the industry. With these projects in operation industry is saving fuel of worth Rs 20 + crore approx every year The target is to save Rs 100 crores per year for the Nation from all the opel projects in future.

During the initial years, I provided services & spares supply to Boiler users. I used to carry all the heavy spares on my shoulders & used to walk from the bus stop to the company around 2- 3 kms. 3 months later I purchased a second-hand premier fiat car that operated on LPG. My wife and I both used to wake up early to finish kitchen activities so that I could use the LPG cylinder in my car for my material delivery purpose .

We sold all our gold ornaments for business start-ups and used to stay in a small single room to avoid expenses. My turn over in the first year was Rs 60000. The first order I received was for Rs. 7500 & today we handle a single order of Rs 750 Lacs with my team of engineers.”

he manufacturing industry has evolved as one of the highest developing sectors in the world. The ‘Make in India’ initiative has contributed enough in this sphere to help India develop as a manufacturing hub and claim global recognition. Many companies are emerging as a huge success in this area and many entrepreneurs are also entering this industry at a high level.

Edaxis System India Private Limited is one of the most trusted manufacturing company which serves Educational Institutions and Government organizations with their quality products and innovative solutions. In a conversation with Business Connect, Ms. Pallavi, the Managing Director of the concerned company shares her experiences and insights into the manufacturing industry.

Please provide us with a glimpse of your company profile and services.

Edaxis System India Private Limited is a manufacturing company that provides its customers with a wide range of products and efficiently encompasses the conventional and modern needs of the customers. The Company has ten years of experience in serving Government as well as Private organizations.

Edaxis is one of the most trusted manufacturing companies in India for providing innovative Teaching and Training audio visual Equipment and Accessories, DIY Security Systems and Solutions.

Further adding Ms. Pallavi says that Edaxis is a team of experts who possess enormous experience in providing products and solutions to the Educational institutions, Corporate and Government organizations. The team ensures the durability of the products and also performs multiple quality checks before the final delivery of the products is done.

HOW DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU ARE DIFFERENT FROM YOUR COMPETITORS? Being different from the competitors is essential to ensure a prosperous future of the company. The team of Edaxis well acknowledges this fact and when asked how the company ensures to ‘corner the market’ in the manufacturing www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 2 | Special Edition | June 2020| INDIA

industry space, Ms. Pallavi replied, “Edaxis provides a one-stop solution for many education relevant products and services. We serve smart-class teaching and training needs along with that we manufacture numerous products from simple writing boards to digital podiums. The company has the facility to customize the products as per the Client’s requirement in order to relieve a customer from searching for different companies for various products.”

chasing what we dreamt of and are performing with the same zeal when we started. Our responsibilities as key officials increase many folds as we have to work for our people and keep their spirits high as well. It is our determination and passion that we are constantly engaged in the betterment of our organization and employees without being exhausted.

Considering your market, express your views on the future for entrepreneurs.

Edaxis is a partner-friendly organization that works with ‘Pan India’ and has a large customer base including one of the most prestigious organizations of India.

In today’s scenario, when the economy is not in good condition, there is the need to come up with cost-effective sustainable ideas based on quality. I believe that the future for entrepreneurs in manufacturing industries is very ravishing and promising.

DID EVERYTHING COME EASY, OR YOU HAVE YOUR STORY OF STRUGGLE? Sharing the experience of the struggles faced by the officials while establishing Edaxis, Ms. Pallavi conveys, “ Nothing comes easy in this world and we have struggled a lot to carve a niche for ourselves and inaugurated Edaxis and Boxlight as trusted brands among our clients.”

APART FROM WORK, WHAT ELSE DO YOU LIKE TO SPEND YOUR TIME ON? I am fond of traveling. I plan a trip here and there, whenever I get 3 to 4 days off from work. Most of my free time is claimed by my family and friends. I love to play with my four-month-old kitten, Jaguar, whenever I manage to steal some spare time out of other chores. I also like listening to music and baking as well.

WHAT KIND OF CLIENTS DO YOU SERVE? The Clientele of the Company includes Educational Institutions, Training Centres, along with different Government departments like Railways, Defense, Public Sector, etc.

EXPRESS YOUR INSIGHTS ON THE INITIATIVES MADE BY THE GOVERNMENT WITH RESPECT TO YOUR INDUSTRY AND HAS IT BEEN FAVORABLE TO YOUR COMPANY IN ANY POSSIBLE WAY? The implementation of GST and the Government’s e-market have really been helpful for startups. The other schemes by the Government like MSMEs have been launched to support the startups which are some appreciable steps.

How do you ensure the ‘unshakable faith of your clients’?

Our first and foremost motto is to ensure the best in class quality products and services to our clients which have become the latest market trend in the country. We believe that the quality speaks for itself and proudly claim that we don’t render cheap products to our precious customers. One can take the idea of the type of service provided by us from the instance that the projector installed in IIT Delhi in 2010 never entered our service center and is working quite well till this time.

PLEASE ‘SHINE THE LIGHT’ ON THE MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. We started the company in 2006 with zero percent investment and till to this date, there have been no liabilities of the bank loans. I believe this, in itself, is a recognizable achievement. We are targeting to hit the mark of 15 Crores in the near future.

HOW THE COMPANY KEEPS PACE WITH THE CHANGING MARKET TRENDS? We are trendsetters, not followers. You can take an instance from the fact that we are the first Company to launch an Interactive Projector in India in 2010.

WHAT ARE THE FUTURE PROSPECTS OF THE COMPANY? I believe that Edaxis holds a bright future as we have sustained a fair share of ups and downs in past years and we are still standing firm in our respective market. Though we know that it is a start-up and it takes a lot of effort and time to get recognized at the National level, yet we are playing hard to achieve it in the shortest period of time.

DO YOU FIND THE ROLE OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ESSENTIAL FOR THE GROWTH OF YOUR COMPANY? Yes, we acknowledge the role of R&D in the growth of our company as today the technology is modifying at a fast pace. So, it is of utmost importance that we bring a touch of innovation to the ideas and features in our products fulfilling customer’s needs adequately.

LASTLY, WHAT MESSAGE WOULD YOU LIKE TO GIVE TO THE READERS OF BUSINESS CONNECT? One must be self- confident and optimistic. We should chase our dreams with full dedication and determination.

Never let someone judge you and be productive enough to shape your dream into a living reality by offering most of your time to it.

DO YOU STILL COME BACK WITH THE SAME ZEAL, LIKE YOU DID WHEN YOU STARTED? We are in love with our job and not for even a single day, we feel as if we are working hard to perform well. We are 49

However, elevators are not just a single invention but a series of innovations tracking back for many decades and continuing into the future. Its ability to carry people to multistoried buildings has reformed the way we work, live, and travel. Without these being invented we would certainly not be living or working in skyscrapers. The density of already populated metropolitan cities would have been alarming. The invention of elevators has radically transformed the look and the style of cities. Interestingly, before the elevators were invented, the top floors were only reserved for low rent tenants.

Just imagine a world without elevators!! How would the patients be carried to the cabin upstairs in the hospitals?

There would have been low storey houses occupying the entire space of the town. How difficult it would be for older people to use the stairs to reach the top floor.

We bring you a story of one such company that has revolutionized the modern city of Kolkata over the decade through the best of elevator services.

There are many newly discovered ways to relieve stress with nature such as forest bathing, ecotherapy, mindfulness and meditation in nature, green time with a walk or the wilderness cure. Human life always evolved greatly outdoors, and the human brain gets nature benefits from a journey back to the natural touch. Thinking about the stress most of the time as something negative gives you a false impression of its true nature. However, take stress as a reaction to changing life and demanding environment connectivity so that you can make yourself better than before. Whereas considering stress as easy to handle change than it is about whether that change makes you feel good or bad. Changes in life happen all the time, and stress can also be changed to a healthy sign by connecting yourself with nature.

The modern has changed life but we but our brains have mostly stayed the same. We all have still a deep connection with nature, and many research shows that if we don’t nourish ourselves ones in a while with nature then that bond despite our technological advancements, we may suffer from stress and many ways.

It’s always great to get out and move outside, but make sure you relax more often with nature, too.

WANDER THE WILDERNESS BY A SIMPLE WALK Simple walking is always good for everyone when it is with nature, but not all walks are equal. You can say that the walks are ugly by cruising the urban streets because they don’t provide the same mental boost of a nature walk. For this matter, you can either opt for a walk at the park or you can go hiking a local trail on weekends. You don’t need to have a specific destination in mind for wander wilderness, either your goal can be to hike X miles if you plan something or a simple natural walk aimlessly. Hereby, immerse yourself in the natural world around you and Japanese call this “forest bathing” and it can rejuvenate very healthy stress less mind.

MEDITATE ON THE MUSIC The concept of music with meditation is not like that to play loud in your headphones. Leave your electronic tracks behind and listen to the light melodies that nature has to offer such as babbling brooks, concentrate on bird songs, wind whistling voice through the trees and the scurrying of unseen animals and creatures through nature. It’s a lot more relaxing than the honking horns and text message alerts you’re used to every day, and it also offers the opportunity to practice some meditative mindfulness in your tranquil surroundings.

POSE IN PARADISE Yoga and exercise offer many physical benefits such as stretching the body and building core strength for the rest of the day.

The pose in paradise always relaxes you, but if you surround yourself with nature’s beauty and exercise then the benefit is doubled. Research shows that your yoga session and exercise with nature helps you to reduce the stress than anything at whole new levels. Therefore, try skipping the normal gym and make a park with a view of your yoga studio to have a natural touch for stress reduction.

STUDY IN THE SUNSHINE If you are a student then doing the study in mother nature’s lap is extremely helpful for you to score best in everything. It helps you to focus more when you study in nature with calmness or learning some written material to ingest. Therefore, leave your fluorescent lights behind in the room and read in the light of the blue sky over your head. Natural environments can enhance cognitive abilities like memory and problem-solve more effectively. Moreover, if you want to retain more information for that big test at school or figure out how to win that important account at work, you might have a better shot surrounded by birds and trees than fellow students and chatty coworkers.

SLEEP BENEATH THE STARS Now you’re going to connect with the beauty of darkness with a sleep beneath the stary sky. Make yourself disconnect entirely for a couple of days and plan a nature camping or daily walk at night at your home. Camping lets you get to connect with nature to forget the stress and takes you further away than a simple day trip allows. Forget Fear of Missing Out someone and try the Joy of Missing Out someone instead. If a roughing night walk isn’t your style then consider glamping, where you can maintain some of the nature-friendly comforts that you love but still be away from home.

SIMMER IN THE SPRING Hot springs have been shown that the best weather for rejuvenating with nature for relieving stress. Spring has healing effects on the body and mind, so traveling to one of nature’s jacuzzis or an ocean-friendly place is a great way to connect with the outdoors and soothe your soul and mind with stressfree life. It’s not rocket science that this thing will help you reduce the stress, either; even animals have figured it out that they are always happy in nature. In Japan, Snow monkeys seek springs to warm up and relieve stress in wintertime.

OPT FOR AN OUTDOOR SPACE If you’ve been thinking about having an office place in nature then it is a very good choice of a career change anyway. However, you can consider a role where four walls aren’t part of your nine-to-five or business but it has some touch of nature.

Apart from that. there are plenty of jobs nowadays that let you work outside all day long, like in the garden areas or park rangers. Therefore, if you feel like your current job isn’t offering up these opportunities to connect with the natural world you love, then consider making the outdoors your daily office by a simple walk.
