While this will direct a lot of investment towards India, it will also lead more competition to emerge. People selling packaged solutions should combine together either strategically or scale up to quickly build avant-garde solutions inline with technology innovations, and not a legacy behind the release. "I only hope and dream that a lot of airports will open in at least in Tier-I and Tier-II cities. This will lead to a true low cost career culture, which will make aviation far more affordable," predicts Ravinder. Aviation is a relatively young industry. Particularly when it comes to the training of pilots, mechanics, aircraft maintenance engineers and safety management experts, the sector is highly unorganized. Although schools for aviation engineering are opening here and there, it is not on a scale it needs to be. This is not just because the education is expensive, but also due to the lesser number of aircrafts and fleet size in India. One has to be extremely good to be an aviation engineer, since there is no second chance to rectify their mistakes. "The gurus of aviation have regulated aviation so much that there is nothing to be regulated anymore," replies Ravinder with a pragmatic touch of humour when asked about the safety regulations in aviation. The company that exclusively works on cutting-edge technologies prefers a small team who can do wonders with technology and has the highest amount of integrity to work hard. "We provide an environment where our people can learn continuously and has tremendous freedom to write code and build infrastructure they way they want. I invest abundant time in grooming them with a hands-on mentoring approach," says Ravinder. Having successfully completed the whole technology stack, the company will roll out its products within next year, once joined hands with the right technology partner.
