Happy Birthday Jute Networks!

The Story of Jute Networks


It is absolutely intentional to announce the website of Jute Networks on the same day as Siya's birthday. Why not have the birthdays of both my babies on the same day :-) especially when both the babies took the same amount of labor pains :-). 

Jute for me happened by chance. After I left QLC, I have been talking to a lot of people but for a job. And one fine evening, I meet Girish Nair (my mentor and a very good friend of mine) and all he tells me is "you should start up". That night I could not sleep and was thinking of what next. I have been reading a lot about entrepreneurship and always wanted to get into one but never managed to say "ok, lets just do it". All it needed is a dinner with Girish to make sure I can pass a statement like this. And then I also met Ajit Menon who has been another reason for me to ensure that I dive into Jute Networks. So, we were like best-est friends who can not agree at all with each other :-). However, the fact that he said "you should try and atleast not have regrets later" was the only agreement I guess we had till date. And then finally my husband and my dad and Siya too gave me a green flag with lots of ifs and buts too which I turned deaf ears :-). But the fact that people who matter me the most were with me, I jumped into. So, a lot of things just started in place, investments, people, place, etc and angels came to help me from every part of earth to help me out :-).

So why Jute - Traditionally jute was used in traditional textile machineries as textile fibres having cellulose (vegetable fibre content) and lignin (wood fibre content). But, the major breakthrough came when the automobile, pulp and paper, and the furniture and bedding industries started to use jute and its allied fibres with their non-woven and composite technology to manufacture nonwovens, technical textiles, and composites. Therefore, jute has changed its textile fibre outlook and steadily heading towards its newer identity, i.e., wood fibre. Jute will help business houses in defining their new identity at affordable rates. India is also the largest producer of Jute in the world and that is surely where Jute should get to. Our vision is to be India’s most customer centric company; to build a company where businesses can find and discover anything they need to fulfil their IT needs. We would like to make a rich history and look forward for a dynamic future. “We make a difference…”

There are so many other people whom I would like to thank who just were there, my clients from QLC, my colleagues from netCore, my colleagues from QLC and most of all my immediate and extended family. (it does almost sound like a Miss Universe speech after award wining ).

Happy Birthday Jute Networks and you are as special to me as Siya! Announcing the launch of the website of Jute Networks. Hope you guys like it! This is just the beginning and the game has just begun, I have a long way to go so wish me luck and most importantly energy to drive it through.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUTE NETWORKS AND WELCOME AGAIN!!!
