"Be ready to get your hands dirty & face any/ every challenge up to the extreme if you want to be successful".

Rishi often portrays unique trait that separates him from the crowd. In simpler terms, he is a person who does not lose hope even in the times of crises. He completed his BCA in computer sciences and then moved on to pursue his post-graduation in international business. This is where he first had an idea of revolutionizing the service industry in India through digitization.

Ever since completing his studies, he had the entrepreneurial bug in him. He was part of various ventures like Apna Lucknow, and Footwears Infoline. He also researched & prepared a 630-page manual on Computer Security, entitled as ‘Extreme Hacking & Computer Security’. However, he came into limelight with his latest startup called VyaparHub. After several sessions of brainstorming, he along with others came to an idea of starting VyaparHub, first of its-kind & fastest growing, diversified digital (virtual) company start-up.

What inspired you to build the above product/ service?

Before taking the plunge into entrepreneurship and starting our own show, we (the co-founders) did a thorough brain storming on how we can transform the entire Indian service industry into an even more effective & sustainable ecosystem through digitization.

Since a long time, starting a new & sustainable business with less or no investment in hand, has been quite difficult in India. Understanding the vacuum of services to simplify the business generation (startups & emerging businesses), VyaparHub came into existence in 2012 as India’s first digital (online) startup mentoring, incubation, growth acceleration and funding assistance company.

Subsequently, we also analysed that there are huge need of affordable, result oriented and easy-to- avail services in the sectors of Education & Health, and Marketing, which are already among the upcoming most profitable & investment-magnet sectors. Thus, keeping in mind to provide best-in-class, yet extremely affordable services & fully digital (online) in the above domains, we initiated the following verticals:

  • Vertical Name: VyaparHub Ventures: Domain: 360′ startup business design, growth acceleration and funding facilitation.
  • Vertical name: Margdarshi: Domain: Marketing process outsourcing (MPO).
  • Vertical name: Adhyayan: Domain: Education management services.
  • Vertical name: Manan: Domain: Health & wellness management services.
  • Vertical name: Samadhan: Domain: Strategic consulting & business advisory.

VyaparHub is first of its company in India which provides such unique business services in a fully online/ digital format, making them really effective, result oriented, extremely affordable and highly accessible to everyone, empowering every individual and organization to become the growth driver in Nation’s economy.
