The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact so significant that its ripples are still evidently visible even towards the end of 2020. The world of business has also been at the receiving end of this impact. Industries across the world had to endure lockdowns and restricted operations.

The Guiding Light
At the helm of Skynet Experts journey towards zeniths of success is Dr Rajesh Joshi, the Chairman and Managing Director.
Dr Joshi is an IIT, IIM alumni and also a PhD holder in IT and operations. He is a PRINCE2® Certified and PMP Certified professional, and has worked also for HCL, Microsoft on development of native tools; and designed and deployed a plethora of large-scale projects.
For the last ten years, he has been focusing on policy designing for the central and state governments of India, Nepal, Thailand, Malaysia, UAE, and Saudi Arabia. He is an expert in Project Management in the fields of entrepreneurial assistance, information technology, training, and regional development in the Private and Public sector.
Being on a leadership position at Skynet Experts, Dr Joshi considers it as his responsibility to enable digitalized transformation for clients’ businesses. The automated processes and tech-based solutions that he and his team have developed, helps for the growth and revenue generation.
“When it comes to innovative solutions and offerings, certain unprecedented disruptions require transformations i.e., building customer base, reinventing core operations and partners’ experience as well. It has been more alleviated by the trend of focusing on smart, connected and AI-powered products. Today’s digital turbulence is driving a major pivot to as-a-service and other new business models,” says Dr Joshi.
In addition to Dr Joshi, Skynet Experts is also blessed with a rational core management team including Dr Firoz Syed, Head of International Business, Mr Devdatta Sathe, Head of IT Department, and Dr Rupali Joshi, the Head of Operations.
We asked Dr Joshi, what advice he would give to the emerging and budding entrepreneurs who wish to start their own venture, on which he said, “Starting a new venture is not difficult but to sustain it and run it successfully is a bit challenging. It is not your regular nine-to-five job. Running a successful business means having a vision, taking bold decisions, facing consequences of your decisions and actions, managing energies, investing time, and delivering more than expectations.”
“While venturing into the assessment solutions, rather I will say, in technology and consultation profile, one should be very innovative and have a mind-set to adapt to the global trends. You should not resist or limit yourself with certain things and opportunities. Sometimes, for opportunities to come knocking, you need to build a door. The bottom line is – planning, focus, commitment, and dedication should be the only motivational factors for any entrepreneur,” he adds.
