Could you tell us about your professional background and experiences? What motivates you in your daily routine?
I have a background in Chemical Engineering from Manipal Institute of Technology and later pursued Polymer Engineering at the
University of Akron, U.S. My professional journey began with research and development and training in composite materials for a company in Minnesota. I later returned to India to work as a Business Manager for Tipco Industry's new composite business. However, my ambition of becoming an entrepreneur led me to search for new opportunities, and I eventually co-founded Indore Composite in 1995, manufacturing fiber-reinforced plastic rods for fiber optic cables. At that time, the industry was in its nascent stage, with India consuming only 6000 kilometers of FRP rod, which was 100 percent imported. Now, it has grown substantially, with millions of kilometers being consumed annually. Our journey has been marked by growth, expansion, and global recognition. My motivation stems from the desire to innovate and find solutions for our customers. Continuous improvement, leadership in FRP rod manufacturing, and leaving a mark of distinction in the industry drive me forward.
