Minds2Mentor To Expand India Operations

Online, October 19, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Minds2Mentor, India's one of the leading Bangalore based business management and consulting solutions company will expand its Indian operations by raising INR 10 crore on Exhilway Private Capital Market (EPCM), the India's first pre-IPO market helping emerging companies to raise money directly via private equity investors.

India is a major hotspot for information technology service providers to invest for growth. IT vendors are investing in emerging geographies in Asia Pacific, Latin America, West Asia and Africa for business.

Minds2Mentor is valued at INR 190 crore on the basis of its 4 years financial projections by EPCM and will shell out close to 5.26% equity to raise the expansion funds.

Minds2Mentor primarily focuses on Microsoft Dynamics and the cloud computing based solutions. Minds2Mentor has the product in its kitty: G-Construct, CRM AddOn and following products G-Campus, G-Production for development in expansion plans.

"We are dedicated to compete against well established brands using cloud computing concept as the differentiator as well as enabler to reach the mass market. We will enter into the space dominated by large players and we are confident that we will be able to attract top clients," said Vijay Doshi, Director of Minds2Mentor.

For IT companies, consulting brings at least two big benefits. One is, as Gartner India's distinguished analyst Partha Iyengar says, they make for "stickier client relationships". A lot of consulting happens not with the CIO - the traditional interface for IT - but with other CXOs. All this translates into deeper and longer-term client relationships.

The second benefit is the downstream one. Most consulting assignments will eventually translate into IT orders, because any business change and transformation today involves technology transformation or the use of technology.

Minds2Mentor is focused on building technology-enabled business transformation consulting (transforming businesses through, say, newer technologies like mobility, cloud etc). "We will be hiring the best talent across India to fuel our expansion plans," adds Doshi.

The vendors with low-cost, global delivery capabilities are able to capitalise on demand for new IT infrastructure in emerging markets in APAC and Latin America. There is also demand for IT modernisation incorporating cloud, mobility and analytics in the US due to vendors' cost effective, innovative offerings and local market presence.

Minds2Mentor is a certified Microsoft Partner offering wide range of Microsoft Business Solutions including ERP Dynamics AX and Dynamics CRM. For small & medium enterprises, Minds2Mentor provides cloud based solution as well as hosted solutions.
