Clarion Fax

• Pune

• Founder

  • Mar 2000 - May 2001

  Clarion Fax was my maiden entrepreneurial venture, ignited soon after leaving Infosys. It was a bold step into uncharted territory, fueled by my passion for technology and innovation. This venture, born during a challenging era marked by the dot com bubble burst and September 11, focused on developing a unique product from scratch, with the support of our first round of funding generously provided by friends, family, and some personal savings. While the journey was full of hard work and sacrifice, and the venture did not ultimately succeed as hoped, the experience was far from a failure. It was during these trying times that I honed my resilience, understood the nuances of the entrepreneurial landscape, and learned invaluable lessons that would become the cornerstone of my future successes. This early experience taught me that the path to success isn't always linear. It's often a series of highs and lows, wins and losses, successes and learnings. And it's the courage to continue that makes all the difference. Picking up a job didn't signify an end but served as a stepping stone towards becoming a successful entrepreneur in my next venture. Clarion Fax serves as a testament to the importance of embracing challenges, learning from experiences, and using perceived failures as fuel for future success. As an entrepreneur, it has grounded me, making me who I am today, and for that, I am immensely grateful. Show less



Infosys

• India
• IT Services and IT Consulting
• 700 & Above Employee

• Software Engineer

  • Jul 1998 - Feb 2000

  My professional journey began at Infosys Technologies, a globally recognized leader in the IT industry. As a fledgling Software Engineer, Infosys offered me an enriching platform to transition from academia to the professional world, providing my first exposure to the intricate dance of code and corporate dynamism. Infosys's vibrant culture and immersive learning environment served as a fertile ground that nurtured my nascent programming skills. My tenure with the company was brief - just a year and a half - but the experience was profound, introducing me to the depth and breadth of software engineering and laying the groundwork for my entrepreneurial journey. Although I soon ventured out on my own, launching my startup, Clarion Fax, the foundations laid during my time at Infosys continue to influence my work and approach to this day. Show less
