Data analytics, which is recognized as a key element in the sector, offers insights on changes in business, research trends, etc. as well as creative solutions that businesses may commonly overlook. It is a key idea for the business' growth strategy in the current market. Regarding online property search, registration, and other services, the real estate industry has been veering more toward technology.

4) What is your biggest USP that differentiates the company from competitors?

Only with the trust of our clients, we were able to scale up to our current quality work.  We aim to enable our prospective clients to benefit from the knowledge that we obtained through dealing with overseas clients for over 7 years, putting in place a solid offshore software development procedure for them. We are aware of the challenges faced by startups as they look for qualified personnel at competitive prices. We serve as a one-stop shop for all of our client's web and mobile app development needs because we have skills in a variety of technologies.

5) What is your Leadership Mantra?

We promote open communication among employees, assist them in establishing goals, assess their performance, and inspire them to improve. Team leaders must promote a variety of viewpoints at the table to generate more creative solutions and more people to contribute their ideas. Transparency in decision-making allows for everyone to participate, have their voices heard, and have their perspectives recognized. This is significant because it gives the company a novel perspective that it can use to develop and grow.

6)What are the skill sets that you specifically look for while hiring them at an initial stage?

As the use of mobile devices and the internet rises, businesses are using IT to develop digital products for their customers. Understanding the customer is a critical step in producing these goods, and employing information technology to meet their wants, requires specific skills. To build soft skills, a person must first acquire agility, critical thinking, analytical ability, and cognitive capabilities. However, hard skills are also necessary to survive here. Therefore, a combination of these abilities will be required for the IT industry's future.

7) How do you see the company and the industry in the future ahead?

In the preceding years, we were able to expand both in terms of size and revenue, at an approximate annual rate of 50%. Our goal is to grow at a run rate of up to 70% or 80% annually. By the end of 2023, we hope to have 200 or more young professionals working with us. We primarily function as a cross-platform full-stack development company at the moment, but we are planning to strengthen our team's competence in AI data science and also in the quickly developing field of extractive data analysis in the coming years.
