Tech Leaders

eaders! Some are born, some are made! A good leader is
Lone who is inﬂuential enough to get others to follow him
willingly. He has a vision, he has a dream, and the passion
to pursue it. He has analytical skills, a decision-making ability, and
a go-getter attitude. He has the grit to bring it into reality.
Successful businesses are usually led by great business leaders that
are also usually admired by their team. These leaders are admired
because they possess certain traits or characteristics that motivate
everyone to always give their best. Below are seven of the more
common characteristics of leaders that always have their team's
support.
Leadership is not a quality but it is an individual’s behavior. A
leader showcases a positive attitude and high self-esteem. He
assertively works towards the goal but never gets pushy for it. A
continuous self-study, training, evaluation and imbibing positive
things in life develop the characteristics of a leader. It has also been
noticed that only those persons are considered as good leaders who
have gained the trust and conﬁdence of their subordinates.
Communication plays a vital role in this regard. The other thing
that people respect is knowledge.
Leadership is both a gift and a privilege. You can erode the
cohesion of your team if you fail to value them. Everyone on the
team deserves to be valued. Each one of them performs an essential
part to keep the engine of your company running. When you can
put your people’s needs and interests before your own, you will be
a more successful leader.
In sum, admired tech leaders believe in the purpose of their
company, and they can impart it with the team in clear goals and
objectives. They are genuinely concerned and supportive of their
team and their growth. They can show that they are aware of the
business’s performance and status, and are eager and prepared to
continue leading it.
Editorial
True leaders are
those who dare
to dream and
live to lead!

Amoolya Vassa:
An innovative Leader who introduced
a smart & cost-effective Payment Solution
Motivation is a goal-oriented characteristic that helps a person to achieve his objectives. An executive must have
the right leadership traits to induce motivation. As a leader, one should keep an open perspective on human
nature. An effective trailblazer must understand the needs of employees, peers and his business environment.
Leadership is the ability of an individual or a group of individuals to influence and guide followers or other members of an
organization. One of these individuals is Amoolya Vassa, Founder of the TRANSACTWORLD GROUP.
Before starting his business in the online payment industry he managed a family owned import/export trading business.
When starting the new venture the business naturally had to survive on a tight budget environment. As the business started to
flourish and client base grew, the company managed to become a decent niche player acting on international lines. Year by
year regulatory requirements, international payment standards and a growing merchant base continuously instigated the
young company to upgrade their system. Over the years they were settled very comfortably being a known partner in
their space. Now, the company reached a point where the past years strategy to massively upgrade the system and
investing in new products is picking up and the group is ready for an international mass scale of the business.
“We work in a fast paced industry that is evolving every day. As a business owner and leader, you
have to stay on top of things, do your own research and make sure you have the latest
information of available technologies and what competitors are doing. I am very happy and
proud that we have invested so much in talents and technology over the past years.
My role is to provide the best possible environment for our staff to work so
they can make sure our systems are up to date, development work is in full
swing, our customers and partners are satisfied and the atmosphere is
happy and positive.” says Amoolya .
E -commerce Growth is the Inspiration of Amoolya

figures are out of date almost as soon as they
are released. His organization has a strong

Truly effective maintenance is proactive. It stops failure modes from arising by preventing the causes of
failure. Instead of fixing a failing plant, the focus becomes plant wellness: ensuring life-long machinery
health and well-being.
This is the future of the heavy industries – an advancement that can detect equipment problems and failures before
they occur. Tardid’s augmented intelligence platform Brainbox delivers this by integrating the knowledge based
decision support for predictive maintenance.
Understanding such machine essentials, the fascinating leader, Niladri Dutta, CEO of TARDID has given some
insightful views highlighting the influence of predictive maintenance solution trends which help their clients to
explore the diverse ways of autonomous structural and machine health management.
· How did your company’s journey as a preeminent brand begin? What was the underlying bedrock idea
behind incorporating the company?
Most successful entrepreneurs have one thing in common, it is the place they begin. Apple started out from a garage,
Facebook was the work of college students. TARDID started its journey from CCD. The idea was simple: to solve an
age-old problem with the help of modern technology, a technology which just doesn’t give insights but also decision
support with root cause analysis at the right time to ensure sustainability of the assets.
· What are the key aspects that demonstrate the uniqueness of the company?
The idea itself is unique, including the name. TARDID is just not a name but an acronym for “Time And Relative
Dimension in Data”. From the very first day, we were certain that we would build a “Technology Product”, which
will resolve the age old problem of machine related uncertainities. We have strived hard to build Brainbox, the
platform which combines the power of machine learning and cognitive computing. The platform makes the machines
intelligent enough so that they can cry for help when in need. And finally an Indian product which provides
subjective to objective expert system.
· Tell us about yourself as a person, your educational background and as an entrepreneur. How do you use
your skills to run your company above and beyond your competitors?
To keep it simple, I prefer to take lead only when my team needs me but rest of the time I empower them to make
decisions and run the show. It is all about empowering and entrusting the team as no great company is built by a
single person, it requires teamwork, it needs people to take ownership and consider it as its own. TARDID, even with
its first employee, always could bring the sense of ownership in each one of them, which made working fun, and
success a combined goal to achieve.
An engineer by education, I have learnt through the process of life, experimenting and learning what to do and what
not to do.
20 March-April 2018
™

At TARDID, we are one big family, who fight, argue and finally agree on a consensus after hearing all parties and choosing to
keep only “TARDID’s” interest as that of the utmost importance. In true sense, it’s about TARDID being an individual entity
and everyone, including the founders, are just its employees working towards a common dream of excellence.
· How do you see your entrepreneurial journey till date? Could you name a person/mentor/book/ who has had a
tremendous impact on your entrepreneurial journey?
Inspiration is always within, you just need to ignite your internal fire and be ready to work hard. Elon Musk inspires me,
because of his persistence in achieving success. His relentless efforts help me visualize how we can always perform better
than what we did yesterday simply by continuously trying to achieve perfection.
The most significant inspiration for me is the Murphy’s Law, as it continuiously pushes me to look beyond the predictable and
plan my technology for the unpredictable.
· What is the biggest risk you have ever taken? What have been some of your failures, and what have you learned
from them?
Life is all about taking risks, in my case I have taken many, some small and irrelevant and others, life-altering. The biggest
risk was quitting a comfortable job and starting the entrepreneurial journey with TARDID when my finances were not in the

best shape. My decision not to take help from family for raising the funds for the longest time. To put everything at stake to
ensure we drive TARDID independently without being questioned. Accepting that failures would happen and we would have
to overcome and yes, we did.
Failure is a very subjective thing, for some success and failures are measured by report cards or salary or designation, etc.
For me, failure is when I quit trying and thankfully, that day hasn’t come till now. However, there have been ups and down
which have taught me great lessons of life, like financial planning for self and the family, so that when you choose to take the
biggest risk, money would not be a concern. I am grateful for a strong family relationship which ensures no matter what I do,
they stick with me through my decisions and support me.
· To what do you attribute your success? What motivates you at difficult/down times?
My family, hard work, and belief in my team and technology. When we are down, we all hustle together and start working
harder. When the downtime comes, that's the most crucial time to identify who is there for the long run to work hard with
you. We take this time to stand up and take actions to ensure we succeed.
· How would you describe your entrepreneurial skill in a sentence? What is your favourite aspect of being an
entrepreneur?
Bad experiences teach us about good ones. The daily challenges which an entrepreneur faces are the most exciting part. Be it
a simple issue which is out of our control, or a complex situation, it keeps us striving to overcome the barrier and move
forward towards success.
· What would you advice to your fellow peers to successfully carry their work functionalities? How do you encourage
creative thinking in your organization?
Be honest with whatever you do and most importantly, with oneself. If you commit, then deliver or else if there is a delay,
inform in advance, as once the time is gone even the right reason becomes an excuse and you appear as an escapist.
To encourage creative thinking, we empower the people to think and commit mistakes, because nothing teaches like
mistakes. Learn from the mistakes, but don’t repeat the same mistake twice. Make new mistakes every time. At TARDID, we
believe each one, irrespective of their qualification and experience, can contribute effectively at all levels, the management
teams believe in being good listeners and helping the all teams effectively carry out their ideas and improvise the ideas only
when required.
· Is there any book or movie you would like to recommend to the budding entrepreneurs? What advice would you
like to give them?
I don’t read a lot of books but I do follow the quote, “Life’s not about waiting for the storm to pass… it’s about learning to
dance in the rain.” – Vi Greene
One would never know unless one tries, don't be afraid to fail, just don’t quit till you succeed. If you believe in your idea
then stick by it, till you make it successful.
· What measures do you take to ensure to grow and develop as an entrepreneur every day? How do you see yourself
growing in the next five years?
Read every day, know about what affects me, my business and my eco-system. As an entrepreneur, it’s extremely important
to be aware of everything that surrounds the success of my company.
Five years down the line, all I see is working harder to keep the customers of TARDID happy and being happier for
TARDID being recognized as a Technology Product Company globally.

Five Tips at can
Secure Your
Digital Accounts
Whether you use your social media accounts for business or to connect with friends and family, getting your
account hacked is a painful invasion. From vacation photos to personal conversations or check-ins to places you
visited, social networks know everything about us. Keeping intruders out is difficult and confusing, so we have
put up the ultimate guide to securing your accounts and making sure you are in control.
· Create a unique, difficult-to-guess password for each social account
We know that finding a solid, easy-to-remember password is difficult, as it must be complex enough to resist dictionary
attacks. Avoid using personal information such as birthdays, family or pet names, numbers in a pattern, and especially the
word “password”. Go for a mixture of lower case and capital letters, numbers and punctuation. If this is too complex to
remember, store it in a password manager. Once you’ve got your password, we know you’d like to re-use it everywhere, but
don’t.
· 2. Add two-factor authentication to every social account that supports it
Major social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube or Google+ support two-step authentication. Besides your
username and password, you have to enter a one-time password that gets sent as a short message to your mobile device
paired with your account. Even if your username and password leaks out, they won’t open the door to anybody without the
one-time password.
Adding your phone to the account can not only prevent illicit log-in attempts, but it also comes in handy if you need to
recover your account if you ever get locked out.
· Constantly review your account activity
Many social networks send notifications when your account is logged into from a new device, when account information is
changed or when multiple failed logins are detected. These notifications are sent via e-mail or text, depending on your
preferences. Keep an eye on account activities, as any modifications are the first telltale signs that somebody is attempting to
get in.
· Be aware of what you click
Sometimes, it’s you who lends a helping hand to cyber-criminals attempting to hijack your account. Under various pretexts,
hackers attempt to scare you into following a link (usually sent in a phishing message) and take “immediate action” to avoid
account suspension or paying for the service. If you heed the call, you end up on a login page that is the exact replica of the
social network’s login form. When you fill in the required information, though, it’s hackers who get it, not the social
network. Never follow ultimative requests under any circumstance; if the network wants to communicate with you, they
would do it through the app’s notification system rather than via e-mail.
· Review your connected apps and browser add-ons
At some point, you might have granted third-party applications such as online games access to your feed so they can update
your friends on your achievements. Some of these applications can read your profile and post on your behalf. Revoke access
to applications that you longer use, by going to the dedicated section for apps in your social network’s control panel.
The same holds true for browser extensions. A rogue browser extension has unfettered access to your browser content and
can modify it in real time. That browser extension you installed to turn Facebook from blue to red can also post messages
and malicious links to your friends without you even knowing it.
While our list is not exhaustive, the five tips in this article should be enough to keep your account safe from intruders. Since
the threat landscape is continuously changing and hackers always find new ways of getting around defences, make sure you
bookmark this blog to get updates on new developments.

he scope of leadership is not confined within management and administration. It involves the ability to
Tmotivate others and to inspire collective effectiveness. Today’s business market is evolving at a brisk pace and
nothing is constant. Majority of these changes has been spurred by the advent of technology, and business
leadership hasn’t been spared either. From entrepreneurs to big business conglomerates and massive corporations,
technology is driving business leaders to a new paradigm.
Thanks to the evolving technology, leadership is not about power anymore. It’s about influence – leadership talks about
the purpose of a job and how it impacts the business. To be so effective, leaders need to secure the trust and respect
within the organization. A collaborative leader focuses on creativity, team bonding and participation across all levels.
Technology-based leadership allows freedom of work and encourages employees to perform remotely. It allows more
fluidity at the micro-level. The best leaders in today’s business environment have a vibrant vision which allows them to
communicate with the stakeholders in the best possible manner.

Tech Talk

Leadership is not only about embracing technology and its potential; rather it’s about embracing the change itself. In
this era of globalization and technological innovations, business leaders must possess the skill of taking quick
decisions, especially in demanding situations. Leaders have to act fast or they tend to miss out an important window of
opportunity. Every leader has a unique approach while dealing with competition. An insightful leader finds competition
as an untapped opportunity for collaboration and innovation. Majority of successful business leaders transform their
organizations by collaborating with third parties. Independent researchers suggest that about forty-nine percent
organization form alliances and partnership which impacts the industry at a large scale.
The way success is perceived has changed over the years – effectively sharing and highlighting results has become a
key attribute of top leaders. Emotional intelligence also plays a pivotal role in creating a good leader. In this digital,
collaborative business landscape, being agile and flexible helps a leader to manage things swiftly. Today’s business
leaders perform multi-faceted tasks – managing projects, acquiring new business, motivating employees, being the face
of the organization and many more. It’s quite clear that leadership is an invaluable resource and every organization
should nurture their employees to transform them into an influential leader for the future.

Karan Pal Singh Chauhan
& Vivek Parmar:
Two Ingenious Leaders who Bring New Insights in the Arena of Outsourcing
In business, a vision is a realistic, convincing and attractive
depiction of where you want to be in the future. Vision gives
direction, sets priorities, and provides an indicator so that you
can tell that you ve achieved what you wanted to achieve.’
Leadership is proactive – problem-solving, looking ahead, and not
being satisfied with things as they are. Once they have developed
their visions, leaders must make them compelling and convincing.
A compelling vision is one that people can see, feel, understand,
and embrace. Effective leaders provide a rich picture of what the
future will look like when their visions have been realized. They
tell inspiring stories and explain their visions in ways that everyone
can relate to.

Inspirational Elements which Drives the Organization
Ahead
While articulating about the company, Karan and Vivek
highlight two factors that drove them to expand their
business horizons:
Creation of Job Opportunities: 31 Parallel is presently
trying to solve the problem of unemployment. They want to
provide education towards youth and women in the (Tier II
and Tier III) towns (encompassing the hill states of
Himachal Pradesh and neighboring Uttarakhand and
stretching up to Punjab) through the use of technology.
Despite having an excellent educational infrastructure, very
high literacy rate, and a huge talent pool, Himachal Pradesh
lacks industries and opportunities. With the help of its
business partners, 31 Parallel is slowly trying to turn the
tide.
Developing itself can rule the Market: The management
team of 31 Parallel strives to be a market leader. Their core
intention is to make 31 Parallel a force to be reckoned with
in the north India BPO landscape and disrupt the entire Tier
II/III cities/Rural Outsourcing space.
“Positive Action and Positive Thinking is the Secret of
Success,” says Karan. He believes that self-motivated
persons can easily touch the cherry of success because they
never feel afraid to test the failure. He also says, “success
comes with Competency and experience in the services the
organization offers, vision and long-term plans,
experienced supervisors and support staff along with a
dedicated workforce, Strong orientation and ongoing
training programs.”
Awards & Achievements
31 Parallel was also recently awarded the STPI Award 2018
for ‘Best Performer in Incubation’ at TiECon-2018 in
Mohali. The event was organized by the Software
Technology Parks of India (STPI), a society set up by the
Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology
(MeitY), Government of India along with The Indus
Entrepreneurs (TiE), which was founded in 1992 in
Silicon Valley by a group of successful entrepreneurs,
corporate executives, and senior professionals with roots
in the Indus region.
Words for Upcoming Entrepreneur
“There is no substitute for experience and hard work. It is
also important to understand that an organization s growth’
and success cannot (and should not) be due to the efforts of
one person or a small group of people. Effort and hard
work has to be acknowledged and rewarded at all levels. A
dedicated workforce that embodies the vision of the
organization is integral to the success of that enterprise. You
cannot succeed alone.” states Vivek.
Elucidating the Future
The evolution of the entire Tier II/Tier III
ecosystem is crucial for India s growth. As’
employment and spending power in India
increases, domestic demand will also
proportionally grow. 31 Parallel is poised to
meet this demand. 31 Parallel anticipate
becoming a 600+ member organization in
next two years dealing with more complex
and high-end work with a niche in the
Financial and Legal outsourcing space They
are intending to lead the entire Tier II/Tier III BPO space in
India with their quality of work and competitive pricing.
In 2019, they would like to spread to other district
headquarters in Himachal like Solan and Nahan, and going
to be partner with the Government on certain projects. They
are developing some technology products for the benefits of
their clients as well.

Mohan Ranbaore:An Inspiring Leader with a Robust Vision for the Future
In many developing countries, governments struggle to reach
people living in extreme poverty and bring them into the
formal economy. But even in the toughest places, a special
kind of entrepreneur is doing what governments often can’t.
Waterlife, a for-profit social enterprise, uses technology to provide
affordable drinking water to underserved populations in South Asia
and Sub-Saharan Africa. Through a small grant and capacity
building support from the World Bank, Waterlife scaled its model in
the poorest states of India.” states Mr. Jim Kim, President – World
Bank.
Waterlife India Pvt. Ltd. is changing the lives of millions of people
across India through its Clean Drinking water interventions.
Waterlife collaborates with corporates, state government agencies
and local communities to set up community-level water treatment
programs.
Mohan Ranbaore, Co-founder and Joint Managing Director set
up Waterlife India back in the year 2008 along with co-founders
Mr. Sudesh Menon and Mr. Indranil Das. As a business leader, he
is responsible for developing & driving innovative solutions to
achieve the vision of providing safe drinking water to all.
Previously, he was heading the national sales function at Xerox.
Mohan states, “Alongwith my co-founders we discovered that we
had a common passion for doing something good for the society
and we built a business around it. We realized that there was a
critical need to address the drinking water problem in India. We set
up Waterlife in 2008 with a vision to providing affordable and
sustainable safe water solutions to the underserved communities in
rural and urban areas.”
Access to safe water is a critical issue. Safe water not just impacts
the health parameters but given that it is so fundamental a need, it
also impacts multiple other parameters like household expenses,
productivity, educational outcomes, gender parity and many more.
Clean water and sanitation has been defined as one of the UN
Sustainable Development Goals. Hence, building corporate,
government and community partnerships for overall community
progress is in itself a great inspiration for Waterlife to keep moving
forward towards its vision.
Waterlife provides innovative and sustainable clean water
solutions. Their services and programs are designed to meet any
water quality issue, be it in India or even in other quality affected
Mohan Ranbaore
Co-Founder, Joint Managing Director
regions globally.
Their most prominent service is the Smart
Flagship Community Clean Drinking Water
Program where they set up community level
water purification plants. These plants can
process upto 1000-3000 litres per hour and are
typically set up as long term 10 year programs
which can serve needs of an entire village or
urban slum on a long term basis. The
corporate/government funding helps set up the
program while Waterlife charges an affordable
user fee to take care of the long term
management of the program and keep it self-
sustaining.
“
36 March-April 2018
™

“With access to safe, clean drinking
at all doorsteps, we will see a healthier
India emerge leading to social change at many level.
Hence, we at Waterlife are seeking
to build a stronger and more empowered
nation drop by drop
“
“Many corporates are working towards empowering
communities through better health via their CSR agenda.
We have partnered with many corporates from both the
Public and Private sector such as Cairn India, Maruti
Suzuki, BASF, GE, HPCL, HDFC Bank, to name a few.
They have partnered with us not only because they believe
in the vision of safe water, but also because they understand
the value of our innovative and sustainable model.” says
Mohan.
Technology at the Forefront of the Program
The Waterlife Community water plants are implemented
using the top-of-the-line technology suited to local water
conditions. They are technology agnostic so we have the
flexibility to adapt the best technology for the required
conditions.
Technology plays a significant role not just in the water
treatment but also in water dispensing. Waterlife has a
smart, automated swipe card based dispensing mechanism,
which brings in immense convenience for the end user
beneficiaries as well as provides them with the convenience
of handling the revenue collections.
Waterlife also uses technology for monitoring to their
plants. They have implemented a Fully Automated &
Digitalized Treatment System & ATW control box feeding a
central server wherein data of all plants is uploaded. This
Remote Monitoring system allows them to digitally monitor
the plant on a continual basis. Data related to key
parameters are regularly sent to the central processing
teams. This ensures that they are able to address issues, if
any, in real time and also conduct high quality analysis of
the impact of an intervention.
Some Innovative Elements Makes Waterlife Unique
Waterlife has incorporated many unique and innovative
elements, which make their programs and plans better.
“Ours is a comprehensive, holistic program which goes
beyond the primary promise of safe and affordable water.
The guiding principal behind the entire program is to
deliver high quality and build deep community
engagement” says Mohan.
All the Waterlife treatment plants are made using green,
sustainable technology. The program also incorporates
many features that help them to build community trust and
transparency around the program such as displaying
monthly certified water test reports at the plant.
Other program value adds include rainwater harvesting
incorporation and setting up community welfare funds to
fuel holistic community development.
“We were mindful that we needed to develop a program
which was replicable and scalable across all geographies.
However, at the same time, it is also important to ensure the
program builds in adaptability, flexibility and innovation. In
India, while the issue of drinking water exists across the
country, the local conditions, geography, water quality,
cultural and political constraints differ from place to place.
You have to be able to get around roadblocks and be
flexible to adapt the program to local needs and
conditions.” says Mohan.
Awards & Achievements
“We have won global recognition for our pioneering work -
we were one of only 10 companies globally and three
companies from India, to win the G-20 award for Inclusive
Business Innovation and have been
recognized at various international events like
The World Bank and USAID awards.”
“It also gives us immense satisfaction when
we see that many of our projects done in
partnership with corporates have been
recognized at important forums - Cairn India
was the recipient of the Petrotech Award and
Maruti Suzuki, the CII-ITC Sustainability
Award in December 2016”” says Mohan.
Future Aspects
Waterlife started their journey with a vision to
provide access to safe water to all
underserved communities across India. To work towards
this vision, they are focusing on partnering with like-
minded corporate partners to collaborate with and help
rapidly increase the coverage of underserved communities.
Starting from one state in 2008, today Waterlife has its
presence across 15 states in India with over 4500 solutions.
“Now, we are in the growth phase so while we are thinking

Nikhil Taneja:
A Zealous Leader Pursuing the Dream of Success
S
uccessful leaders lead by example because they possess
the ability to inspire and drive the team in such a way
that each member bring their best to the table. Setting
clear goals and persevering to achieve them alongside the team
goes a long way in building a great company. They give
freedom to their team to explore, experiment, and achieve
greater heights.
One such outstanding leader is Nikhil Taneja, the Managing
Director of Radware India, SAARC and Middle East. He
started his remarkable journey with Radware at the young age
of 28 on April 2002 as Country Head - India & SAARC
Operations.
A Passionate and Enthusiastic Leader
Being one of the first persons in the company, it was his job to
build it from ground zero. This entailed developing local
business, and setting up units across India with the objective to
add to the global numbers.
During its early days, when the Indian market was working with
Layer 3 technology, Radware was way ahead offering Layer 4
to Layer 7 technologies. Nikhil led the team to crack two of the
biggest deals in data security business in the history of Radware
globally at that time - IDRBT and Indian Air Force.
Over the years, Nikhil’s responsibilities extended to the growth
and expansion of Radware’s market presence across the entire
Asian subcontinent. A significant contribution to the remarkable
growth of Radware in the region led Nikhil to take over the
position of MD, India, SAARC and Middle East recently. His
great journey at Radware will turn 16 years with 64 successful
quarters on 31st March, 2018.
The past 16 years brought rapid business growth along with HR
challenges, compliance challenges and expansion challenges.
Nikhil Taneja
Managing Director of Radware India,
SAARC and Middle East
Dealing with all these provided great exposure
and experience, and helped him grow as a
team player, leader and a guide.
Growth of India as a region year-on-year
increased the management’s confidence in
Nikhil and he has been given additional
responsibilities of managing other

geographies. He has been provided additional manpower
to grow business, add more portfolios and most recently
handle GSI (global system integrator) business out of
India and address global business out of the region. He
was one of the top 4 people historically who mattered for
numbers to Radware globally during the 20th
anniversary celebration at Israel recently.
Nikhil feels that when the work is driven by company
goals and objectives, no challenge feels big enough. One
can always find solutions to counter them in some form
or the other. His journey so far in the company has only
strengthened his resolve to always find solutions that
sync with the overall goals of the company. He is
inspired by the thought that if one sets their mind to
succeed, everything they do will help, guide and
motivate them to succeed. He feels lucky to get the
opportunity to build a team that possesses
entrepreneurial spirit; this has led to a very healthy
working environment thus contributing further to
Radware India’s growth.
Under Nikhil’s guidance and leadership, Radware India
leads the industry with its unified management and
orchestrated framework for ADC and Security
Technologies. It is one of the industry’s first vendors to
launch virtualized solutions or specialized DDoS
solutions.
Further, Radware is one of the only OEMs to offer fully
managed, single vendor hybrid solutions that
interoperate seamlessly and offers most comprehensive
on-premise and cloud protection against volumetric
attacks. Radware India has won many awards under his
leadership, including ‘Best DDoS Attack Mitigation
Solution’ in 2017 and ‘Best DDoS Vendor’ in 2016 by
VAR India apart from ‘Application Delivery Controller
Vendor of the year’ from SME Channels in 2016 to
mention a few.
Nikhil advises young professionals to become masters at
their work, and to become domain experts. While
personal advancement is important, one should be a team
player to be able to grow in an organization.
Commitment to an organization is a good way to
strengthen oneself both at a professional and personal
level.
Nikhil, Leading Radware to Success
Under Nikhil’s astute leadership, Radware has delivered
a record year in 2017, and is confident that 2018 will be
an encore. He has great plans to expand the
company within India, SAARC and Middle
East in the coming years. He also intends
to leverage Radware’s global partnership
with Cisco and Check Point in the coming
months. He will lead the company towards
focusing more on the telecom sector while
increasing investments in the same. He
aims to aggressively pursue business from
other SAARC countries going forward.
Innovation is in the company’s DNA and it
will continue to strengthen its cyber and
application security offerings in the coming
years.

Impact of designing
sector in Indian
manufacturing business
Indian manufacturing market
India is land of world’s largest young population, 47% of
India's population is below 29 years and it is increasing to
49% by 2021. We are growing younger, while China and
others are ageing. This is the advantage for the Indian
manufacturing Industry.
As Make in India initiative launched by The Government
of India takes off on a large scale. The country is expected
to rank amongst the world's top three growth economies
and amongst the top three manufacturing destinations by
2020.
However, the challenge remains in manufacturing industry
as it has to beat the global competitors like China, Japan,
Germany, USA , as they are best in manufacturing
technology. To overcome this problem Indian
manufacturing business need to acclimatize with new
emerging design technologies which will ensure that Indian
enterprises remain globally competitive based on the
growth trends of various industrial segments and enable
them to avail new manufacturing opportunities.
Significance of Design
Designing of the product using advance technologies like
CAD, CAM, CAE can help to reduce the cost as well as to
manufacture the high quality product. While designing the
product manufacturers need to actively think how the
product can be made before manufacturing. Rework of the
manufactured product doubles the cost of the product as it
involves reuse of man, machine, money and time.
CAD- Computer Aided Design plays important role in
conceptual design using 2D drawings and 3D modelling.
CAM –Computer Aided Manufacturing means using
machine that are controlled by computers
CAE- Computer Aided Engineering is uses of computer
software to aid engineering analysis task. CAE helps to
improve product design or assist in the resolution of
engineering problems for a wide range of industries.
Below design technologies are going to have huge impact
on Indian manufacturing market.
Impact of design on manufacturing
Manufacturing industries must think of rapid, efficient and
flexible product development and which can be achieved by
CAD, CAM, and CAE which insure complete part
manufacturing solutions for designing, analysis, tooling,
machining and quality inspection.
The most obvious advantage of these technologies is its
speed. The manufacturing process has been shortened
considerably, making design, simulation, and testing is
possible with amazing speed. With the ability to send a
design directly to production, manufacturers are capable of
doing the changes in the design as per customer input in
real time.
Reverse Engineering- Reverse engineering is going to
have huge impact on manufacturing industry it can be used
for many purposes; as a learning tool to understand the
existing designs, way to make a new products that are
cheaper than what’s currently available in the market. In
reverse engineering, designer doesn’t needs to design the
parts from the scratch. Now a days, manufacturers can buy
the scanners which scans the existing parts, collect the
scanned data either in mesh format or in a point cloud
format. Later using scanned data user can create 3D model.
Small and medium scale manufacturers can adapt this
technology to enhance their design and production.
3D printing- Very soon, additive manufacturing is going to
replace the subtractive manufacturing; as it heavily

impacting a company’s pricing model,
manufacturing of parts will be cheaper and
cheaper. The costs associated with 3D printing
are dropping and will likely continue to drop as
more printers are available as per production
requirement, and industries are adopting 3D
printers on a large scale. Now a day’s 3D
printing is not limited to the plastic products,
mechanical components or parts which used to
be cast or forged can be manufactured using 3D
printing with better quality and zero defects.
Internet of Things (IoT) - The IoT has massive
bang in the world of technology, and
manufacturing industry is ﬁrst one who has
accepted the IoT’s capabilities. IoT is nothing
but the networking of objects which have the
connectivity, and these objects are
communicated with each other independently
using the internet. Sensors are not new to
manufacturing industry, and they know how to
track the record of each movement and keep an
eye when there is disruption. IOT can be used in
inventory tracking, production data for
optimizing production sequences, machine status
data for predictive maintenance of the machine
and so on. In short, IoT would be all about
making it easier to trace all these things and
eventually will help manufactures to save
money, time and keep their organization ahead
of the competition.
Indian manufacturers should decide how to alter
a business model to better ﬁt into available
options. Combination of CAD, CAM, CAE
technologies along with reverse engineering, 3D
printing and IOT will keep them to stay ahead of
the global market.
Design Future Insights
Rajesh believes that Graebert’s unique concept
of CAD trinity – a collaboration of design on
Desktop, Mobile and Cloud will help design
industry to collaborate with manufacturing
industry. The manufacturer can easily
communicate with partners,vendors via mobile

Rahul S Kurkure:
Simplifying your Journey through Cloud
C
loud computing is the latest megatrend that is
empowering organizations to evolve in a rapidly
transforming technology landscape. In the last few
years, the cloud computing market has witnessed an incredible
growth driven by commodity public clouds that deliver
extremely low cost computing and storage services appropriate
for web-scale application. In this paradigm, Amazon Web
Services (AWS) has emerged as a dominant force.
AWS is empowering organizations that wish to harness the
power of cloud and propel their applications development.
Being a piece of infrastructure that is supporting the current
tech boom, AWS allows companies to handle traffic, store
videos, power a database, and run analytical operations.
Fulfilling this burning need for cost-effective and flexible
solutions that will add to the AWS landscape, Cloud.in was
established.
Headquartered in Pune, Cloud.in, a business unit of Hostin
Services Private Limited, is one such partner with an experience
of more than 17 years in providing Hosting and Managed
Services. It is an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner and an
AWS Channel Reseller Partner. Cloud.in aids businesses to
realize AWS cloud hosting benefits through a portfolio of
managed services which incorporates Cloud Strategy and
Roadmap, Cloud Architecture Design, Cloud Migration,
Managed AWS Cloud and Bespoke Management Solutions.
Additionally, it yields value added services like Cloud Billing,

he has an innate passion towards customers,
partners, community and technology.
Rahul strongly believes in open
communication, team work and commitment
to excellence. Through Cloud.in, his vision is
to provide their customers with cost effective,

“
reliable and high performance cloud solutions with the
utmost customer satisfaction and personalized service.
He deems the employees as a family and is unrelenting
in giving them an opportunity for personal and
professional growth.
Their hosting and managed services experience across
different verticals has helped Rahul to understand what
their clients need and what their customers want. “We
offer Security, Reliability and Faster Turnaround. By
offering an “all-in-one” managed AWS service, we bring
out best Cloud services and tailor-made solutions to help
them gain maximum ROI out of their IT investment,”
affirms Rahul.
Cloud.in Meets Clients’ Business Requirements and
Goals
“We define a cloud strategy as per customer’s business
requirements and goals. We assess clients’ cloud
readiness, develop a business case, find right solutions
and guide them in business transformation,” says Rahul.
He understands the actual necessities of CIOs and IT
managers and is able to demonstrate business benefits
and outcomes to them. Besides, Cloud.in has certified

present IT infrastructure and current workloads, they
identify the right set of AWS systems architecture and
plan migration. Cloud.in can move applications and data,
and perform post-migration validation. They offer end-
to-end project management.
Rahul’s Advice for Young Entrepreneur
Learn to be realistic and don’t try entrepreneurship just
because you want to be your own boss. Once you have
decided to take the plunge and are ready with a plan to
fulfill your dream, be prepared to face the real test of
your character. Frustrations come thick and fast,
threatening to cloud your vision and push you towards
the easy path. Hang in there with insurmountable Grit.
Grit is the feeling that ought you to develop in
abundance if you want to make your dream come true.
Don’t just dare to dream; Dare to change. Your plans
stand for nothing; your dreams mean zilch to anyone
unless you can show them how it benefits them. You are
guaranteed success as soon as you start viewing a
problem from your user’s or client’s perspective. Make
that transition rapidly.
Finally, remember that you need to master man
management skills than anything else.
Future Roadmap
Every business is unique and needs bespoke
solutions to fulfill its requirements.
Cloud.in offers customized management
solutions and acts as a replacement or
extension of the existing IT, NOC and
SysOps team. “We provide enterprise-grade
managed services for clients’ AWS
infrastructure and applications. We deliver
24/7 live tech support, SLA driven
operations and issue resolution, proactive monitoring,
predictive and reactive service assurance, and end-to-
end security,” says Rahul.
Identifying the reasons that impede the adoption of cloud
technology by enterprises, Cloud.in endeavors to be one
step ahead to improve efficiency and offer better cloud
services. While aiming to expand its reach to India’s
popular e-commerce and digital companies, Hostin
Services plans to outspread Cloud.in in India and
Middle-East.

Business buzz

Humans are evolving every day. With every passing
moment, there is an advancement taking place in
the world of science and technology. People are
changing and so are their minds. It is becoming difficult to
convince people and the task is also getting easier at the
same time. Trends are evolving every day and every year
there is something new. As businessmen come to know
about the trend and its application process, their companies
can easily foresee the ever-changing psyche of the general
public.This is how all the major corporations in the world
strive to thrive. Some of the known business trends which
can drive success are as follows.
Generate Convincing Content and
Integrate Sales and Content
Marketing Team
Customers and their buying
patterns have changed over
years. Everyone believes
profoundly on online research
today. Each and every
customer does a high level of
online research to find out the
product they require and desire.
The most popular business
organizations in the world follow the trends
much before they arrive or, in other words, they bring in the
trend. They integrate their sales and content marketing team
so that whenever any potential customer search for risk
factors, challenges and implementation strategies associated
with any product or service, they will get answers to all
their queries from the content provided by the company
itself. In every purchase that happen today, the content and
the content marketing plays the most important role. And
nothing can be better if a convincing content is effectively
used by the sales professionals in their sales process.
Add Multimedia Content to the Company’s Website
People are not much inclined to reading these days and they
admire visual interactive content over traditional marketing
content. The demand for audio-video content has increased
a lot and websites with greater amount of seeable objects
are much more attractive than the websites with less or no
visual content. Color attracts children as well as adults.
Scientifically, watching a video utilizes more human senses
than reading, hence, it creates more impact on the human
mind. For any individual, it is difficult to remember the best
advertisement they have read, but almost everyone
remembers the last best advertisement they have watched
on their television set or multimedia devices.
A survey among the executives of various companies
revealed that more than 80% people have mentioned that
they watch more videos now than a year before and
interestingly, 75% of them informed that they watch much
more work related videos now than before. The survey also
suggested that more than half of the people surveyed have
visited the vendor's website after watching its video.
The video uploaded on the website should answer the
questions which a potential buyer might ask. The video
should be short, simple yet catchy. A hook factor must be
there in the video to keep the viewer active on the site.
Precise the segments to gain more attraction
Every customer wants to get something new and different
from other customers. Everyone wants to be special. The
trend is to generate unique content for each and every user
or at least to avoid the generalized concept.
Experts suggest that the content managers must design the
content specifically for each one of its customers. But this
does not mean to insert the brand name before designing a
message for a particular customer. Instead, the managers
must know about the interests and choices of their clients or
customers and tailor the perfect message for them.
A classic example of this trend could be the way popular e-
commerce site like Amazon, the popular music app Gaana
or video streaming website Netflix suggests the products
which the customer might want. The most successful
companies are focusing extensively on delivering content
and communication designed according to client's or
customer's preferences.
Use Collaborative Tools to save time
Email is a major communication tool for communicating
both internally and externally for a company. But it is a fact
that the whole mailing process consumes a lot of time.
Experts informed that collaborative tools like Slack have
already entered into the industry and is soon going to
replace email for communications happening inside a
company. It has been seen that Slack, which started their
journey on 2013, has already exceeded four million users
daily. They also mentioned that the organizations which use
Slack for internal communications can save a lot of time. It
clearly indicates that using less time over emails might
bring positive impact on the professionals.
Time is the most valuable entity for executives today. While
reading a company message or watching a video content on
the company's website, the client or the customer must not
feel that they have wasted their time in doing so, rather the
content must be put forward in such a way that the viewer
or reader must feel like “Thank God I watched this video.
This opened my eyes. This is the product/service I was
looking for.”
