Solminds Technologies came into being on the last day of 2008. We
continue to celebrate New Year’s Eve as our founding day, not that we have
had many anniversary celebrations yet being a young company. Solminds is
based in Cochin in the southern state of Kerala in India.
Solminds is a small team led by its founding director Ceejo Thomas. Prior
to founding Solminds he has worked with
Cordiant as Vice President for Service Delivery as well as with
Tata Consultancy
Services. He did his MBA from School of Management Studies ( CUSAT )
and Electrical Engineering from Governement Engineering College ,
Thrissur.
The name Solminds was coined as an acronym for Solutions by Minds. We
firmly believe that technology can be used to make lot of tasks easier. We
feel technology is made to be too complex than it ought to be and there is a
way to make it simple and be useful without resorting to high sounding
technical jargon. Internet has made it a level playing field and with the
advent of on demand computing, any person with skills can contribute and
help in solving a business problem anywhere in the world.
The solutions Solminds provide mostly leverage the internet and primarily
make it easier for small businesses to go online and advertise or sell their
wares at a minimal cost. We do depend on open source a lot and we thank all
the contributors out there who enrich the community. Of course Google and
Google apps has been an integral part of our business as well as Microsoft
who has provided us tools with their
Bizspark program for
start ups.
