Speaking on the occasion Mr. Aditya Krishna, Founder & Managing Director, Saksoft Group said, “Saksoft has seen substantial growth year-on-year and even in times of global slowdown. Having established our niche in the BFSI sector, we are now extending our unique services to the growing telecom segment. Our strategy to diversify into new verticals coupled with increased focus across geographies will fuel Saksoft’s growth in the future. During the last quarter, we increased our headcount by 10% and we now plan to double it in next three years.”
In an attempt to bridge the gap between employable talent and the large chunk of engineering graduates, Saksoft has started an academy to train graduates in niche technologies that empower and make them industry ready.
Highlighting on the future plans of the company, Mr. N K Subramaniyam, Executive Director, Operations and Technology, Saksoft Limited said, “Saksoft has bagged seven new clients recently. Currently about 80% of our revenue comes from the US and Europe, while the rest of the 20% is shared between India and the Asia pacific markets. We are keenly looking at expanding and strengthening our business through partnerships and alliances in various geographies, thereby increasing our revenue by two folds in next three years.”
