From Our CEO, Vikram

It has been a quarter, since I joined Minfy. The most striking feeling I have is of amazement, seeing the energy of our people — relentless, tenacious and focused on our customer’s outcome. Customers strike a common chord among all of us and inspire us to help them create their future. On one end, 3 months passed by in a jiffy and on the other, so much was accomplished that it feels like a long, long time! We formally unveiled our new ‘Bionic identity’ and renewed our mission ‘to enable a symbiotic relationship between humans and deep tech’. The enormity of the second covid wave left no one untouched, but it made our realization about the significance of our ‘bionic purpose’ even greater. In this difficult period, what guided us was Minfy’s cultural values. Minfy remained resilient and did not slow down. We went ahead with geographical expansion with enablement of local teams now in Malaysia, Singapore and US. We did not slow down on hiring and successfully onboarded over 50 talented professionals. Our vertical focus in BFSI, Digital natives, Public Sector helped marquee customers choose Minfy as their cloud managed services partner.

The second quarter looks even more exciting, as we get into hyper-automation mode. Under Minfy Labs, existing solution accelerators like Swayam and CloudStorz will be further enhanced and in parallel new IP developments will gain pace. Our hiring will further accelerate as both experienced talent and energetic freshers from reputed institutions want to be part of the Minfy mission. Our incubation team of Healthcare and Life Sciences would complete their pilot projects to make a difference to human lives. We look forward to getting one step closer to our ‘Bionic purpose’.

Stay Safe & guided by your purpose!

Minfy Technologies, a leading cloud consulting firm based out of India offering “public cloud enablement” as a core service including 24*7 service desk support and Simbiotik Technologies, a cutting-edge technology lab providing software services and solutions with its in-house technical team headquartered in Selangor- Malaysia, together are pleased to announce their partnership to deliver comprehensive cloud computing solutions.

On the occasion, Vijay Jain, Founder and Director of Minfy technologies said, “We are extremely proud to be a partner to Simbiotik. It’s solution offerings around E-Procurement, Smart Agriculture and Healthcare Analytics would truly complement our service offerings and create a greater impact to our customers”.

With Minfy’s expertise in offering cloud solutions as an AWS Premier Partner and Simbiotik’s strong customer base in Malaysia, together they aim to efficiently serve their existing clients, GLCs and commercial enterprises who want to utilize cloud’s scalable computing resources and access their applications and data from any location worldwide.

“I am really excited to join hands with Minfy Technologies. Minfy’s expertise in Cloud Services would complement Simbiotik’s service offerings and provide a more comprehensive array of cloud computing solutions & managed services. I believe this partnership will help deliver our vision of one-stop solution provider for digital transformation and create great value for our clients”, said Dipankar Mitra, CEO Simbiotik.

With the increasing demand for digital transformation and secure remote access to work efficiently, organizations are opening their network and applications to the outside world (e.g. employees, customers, business partners, third-party vendors, IoT devices etc.). While the connectivity of external parties is ever-growing and evolving, the common methods to own and manage CapEx heavy on-prem IT infrastructure for business continuity, cannot remain the same. Together, Minfy and Simbiotik believe in cloud-first strategy as the foundation of any company’s digital transformation.

Dr Amit Sinha, Managing Director (APAC) at Minfy Technologies said, “With this partnership, we bring together our expertise of advanced cloud technologies and enterprise-grade automation systems. Our combined forces of highly accomplished and agile teams provide the full spectrum of specialized IT solutions. This is something which IT giants can offer, but we provide the same at a fraction of their costs.”
