Aditya Kandarpa: Co-Founder, Amethyst Online Consultants Pvt. Ltd.

When the entrepreneurship bug bit us, we made two rules - We would not move out of Vizag, and we will not raise any funds. We have offices all around the world, Sri Lanka, Philipines etc. but head office is based here. We got 50% of staff from the Skill India programme and from rural areas. He said we hope this conclave makes Vizag a bigger player in the global market.
