Shamit Khemka – the CEO and Founder of SynapseIndia (the leading offshoring/ outsourcing service provider located in India) is a true believer in being unreasonable and achieving excellence through innovation. Born and brought up in the business stratum of Indian society, Shamit is a commerce graduate from St. Xavier College. He aspired to be an entrepreneur while still studying in college. To meet this aspiration, the easiest way for him was to join his family business (of flour mills). However, this tech savvy chap had dreams quiet unimaginable by his peers.
Having a keen interest in technology, Shamit came up with his first innovative venture called Pharos Infotech (1994) soon after his graduation. Pharos was the first dot com that introduced BBS (Bulletin Board Service) with email in India. This was even when VSNL had not launched its internet service in India.
This was just the beginning of the bright entrepreneurial career of this young entrepreneur whose second business venture Sampatti.com (in 1998) received huge applauds from the real estate investors in India. Sampatti.com was the website catering to the needs of real estate industry in India. The interactive database and directory of Sampatti.com became an instant hit among the realtors across the country.
It was the constant yearning for excellence through innovation that motivated Shamit Khemka to come up with his third and most recent venture Synapse India. Catering to the various industry verticals including sports, media and entertainment, medical and healthcare, investment and finance, real estate, retail and wholesale, and more, the company has a huge satisfied client base across the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and other countries.
Launched at a meager investment and a few employees, the company today boasts of more than 300 employees and multiple units across the country. The company has been showing tremendous growth of 100% since its inception in the year 2000. It's the quality of services offered by the company that has made him a proud Microsoft Certified Gold partner with CMMI level-3 accreditation and NASSCOM and FICCI certifications. The company continues to show upwards growth on the back of its highly skilled and expert workforce.
