2004 has been a memorable year for me, the birth of Kern Communications Pvt Ltd. It is now more than a year since I joined hands with two of my close pals with the vision of creating a leading learning services and usability services company. Over this period, we have struggled, grown, learned and enjoyed every bit of it. It has been a tremendous learning experience, experienced more so by my colleagues, co-founders and friends, Ripul and Geeta who have been in the thick of things at all times what with setting up an office, expanding, building a team (have to mention this, our team today includes a bunch of really talented and enthusiastic people, a special mention of the first threesome on board - Anu, Sowndarya and Deepa).

So what is it like to manage a start-up? When is the best time to start? How to start? I am sure these are queries that strike each of us when we think of starting a new venture. That’s when the thought stuck - Let me share my experiences. So keep visiting this page as I share my thoughts, views and experiences on – What triggered off this decision, what is it like to manage a start-up, useful strategies and lots more over the coming months. Stay tuned.
