Kerala – A Propitious Location
The trajectory of the development curve when it comes to digital transformation has been laid back in Kerala. The stagnation of the growth curve in digital innovation was a problem, which needed a solution, and the team of Weft Technologies was ready to do their part to make a difference.
They wanted to invest their time and skills to create a new history of digital innovation in Kerala backed up realms of growth hack strategy.
When we asked Nidhin to share how Kerala is a favorable location for his company, he said, “Kerala, with its favorable policies for startup mission and budding IT companies made us launch our company effortlessly. Since the demand for digital innovation was at peak, we were having a favorable time in connecting with our target audience.”
“With a lot of techie biggies running their branches in and around Kerala, there was never a need for second thought, since we were assured of the fact that digital needs were flourishing among the Kerala audience,” he added.
An Exceptional Approach
When we asked Nidhin about the challenges he has faced while establishing Weft Technologies, he said, “Just like any other business, we were testing the waters, we were new to the tech industry, but with years of experience and sound knowledge, we had the pre-requisite skill set. We had to take time in staffing and collecting the resources, which resonated with our ideals and vision.”
Kerala has been falling short in terms of digital growth compared to the counterparts and the state government has put in several efforts to elevate the digital transformation ratio. So, acceptance was never an issue.
Nidhin shared about his strategies to overcome the hurdles encountered. He said, “Making our ideals familiar with the Kerala audience was our preliminary task and we embraced simplicity to do it so. Kerala’s culture embraces simplicity in its entirety, and we adopted it in our marketing strategies and could grow substantially huge with years of hardship and could collect accolades from different spheres of our hometown.”
Impediments Encountered during the Pandemic
Covid -19 was a challenging time for Weft Technologies as it was for every other individual or business in question. The team of the company tried with their best efforts to have close ties with their clientele and be attentive to all their queries and be a constant source of support for their concerns around the clock.
The safety of Weft Technologies’ workforce was the primary concern, and the team went onto work from home and used digital communication to keep the work in progress.
Nidhin said, “Covid-19 opened eyes for many, who were afraid to take a break from the traditional brick and mortar institute setup and understood the massive potential behind having an e-commerce store and we found a number of queries in the midst, for which we were more than happy to respond.”
Digital transformation was the need of the hour, and many wanted to take the leap of faith for once, and when they did, they started to generate revenue, and this gave them a quick revelation on how much they missed out in terms of years.
So, Covid-19 was an eye opener for many, who were so stubborn to leave their traditional business strategies and as, Weft Technologies’ team believe, change is the only constant thing.
Words of Inspiration
Advising the youth of tomorrow, the team of Weft Technologies states, “We strongly believed in ourselves and that’s what we would like to share to the youngsters to have strong faith in their skills and never stop learning. There should never be a breakpoint in your learning curve and continuously update yourself with the latest tech trends.”
“Failures are necessary for escalated growth and setbacks, or roadblocks should never stop you from achieving your goals,” the team adds.
“Never take shortcuts for your hard work, undoubtedly, your strenuous work will pay you off at the end of the day with flying colors. Dedication and perseverance are the root values that need to be incorporated in your persona while you are on the journey to achieve something big!” Nidhin guides the youth.
“Most importantly, build your network wisely, it has in store a massive amount of potential, which you can put into use at some point of your time,” he adds.
A Vision Ahead
When we asked the team of Weft Technologies to share their future goals and strategies, they stated, “Our long goals are centered towards complete digital transformation of Kerala, where every individual has access to all digital entities. We dream of Kerala, which is positioned among the top league and put our hunker efforts into it to make it possible.”
“Latest technologies like AI, machine learning, and data science have huge potential that still remains unknown to many of the Kerala’s industries, and we would love to invest our efforts to use our skill set to make these industries visualize their data trends and make important business decisions with ease,” they added.
Automation of many industries in Kerala is still a matter under question, and with digital transformation, most of the erroneous procedures can be successfully avoided.
“We have an amicable work atmosphere and in the long run, we want to boost our corporate identity and let the public know, how important it is to have an amicable work atmosphere and a happy workforce is necessary for the potential growth of the company,” the team of Weft Technologies said.
“Technology and art have merged in a beautiful rapport in our work sphere and that keeps us going forward”
Current Industrial Scenario in Kerala
IT industry is having a booming growth in the pandemic situations with continued employment opportunities for all the techies, in a situation where thousands lost their jobs.
IT industry is also facing a number of queries in digital transformation and e-commerce stores are now being embraced by many industry owners upon understanding its potential.
Allied industries are approaching IT industries for digital solutions that can ease their work process at times of social distancing and lockdowns.
But lockdowns have also resulted in many stagnant projects that could have been launched by now and everyone should strive together to come out of this situation victoriously as united as we can.
