Since the very beginning of SOI in 2007, it has been providing design solutions to Biotech, Healthcare & Pharma projects. The company took more than a decade with various projects to arrive at a new startup offering client centric solutioning and delivery model. An interesting twist came in the form of adding the CEO, Sandhya K Sirsi's portfolio of art to design giving birth to DnA, Design n Art.

The usual struggle to articulate our thoughts for acceptance took a lot more than anticipated time. The inputs, review, feedback & suggestions from various persons in presentation, projects, events & travelling were invaluable". The company wholeheartedly acknowledges encouragement from the IT & BT Department, Govt. of Karnataka during its period of struggle to recognize it as a Startup.

Today 44 percent of the companies have women in their C suite level. Gender shouldn’t determine whether a person could be an excellent leader or not. An individual’s leadership abilities should rely on their strengths and personality traits.
