What Drives a Young entrepreneur like Shamit Khemka?

What is it that makes men like Khemka want to go that extra mile even after reaching the heights of success at such an early age?

Only 34 and already on his third successful business venture, one is forced to wonder what is it that makes men like Shamit Khemka want to go that extra mile even after reaching the heights of success at such an early age. “For me, it’s the will to succeed, combined with my drive and lust for learning, as well as my passion to scale newer heights every time,” beams Khemka matter-of-factly.

At 19, when most are still confused about which career to pursue, Shamit Khemka, CEO and founder of Synapse India, had already decided to realize his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Hailing from a business family, Khemka deciding against joining his family’s flour mill business as he was passionate about technology and wanted to make a mark in the IT world.

The factor of foreseeing and the move ahead of mediocrity

There are three types of people on this earth. Many who foresee, plenty who do not foresee at all, and some who act on what they foresee!

The interesting commonness that exists amongst the people of the two extreme groups is that they tend to interchange their positions on a given state of their bearing.

The third type, unfazed and focused, simply continues to bang on the darn door to make his/her way ahead.

Shamit Khemka founded Synapse when the concept of IT outsourcing and India’s future in relation to the new ideology was still in its sprouting stage.

He is one who represents few from the third type.

And like a true foreseer who steps on the boot to set out and achieve before others; after a continuous and relentless journey towards surpassing newer heights, just after the prospect of mobile application development glinted and stuck to his vision, Shamit was on the boll, even prompter than his earlier efforts.

Concomitant to his alert steps, in a time when most of the world-wide companies are busy in understanding the nuances of iPhone (other than raving rich about a sudden-found intricacy), Synapse has already got a team that has made its mark in the domain of iPhone Application development. Going by the amount of success that it has already garnered, the team of mobile application development experts stands to invoke enough reasons behind speedy upswing in the recognition of Synapse as a mobile software and gaming solution provider.

Synapse, under Shamit is on the move ahead, and above the rest!

Shamit – Ensuring equal opportunity for employees to learn and grow

Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.

- Dwight Eisenhower

The success of an organization greatly depends on capabilities of its leader. It is the leader who takes initiatives and leads from the front to guide his teammates and ensure that targeted goals are achieved as per expectations. Shamit Khemka, the CEO of Synapse Communications Pvt. Ltd., is one such leader who knows how to motivate people to follow a dream that sounds equally meaningful for both company and the individual.

If it’s his remarkable self-belief that compels others to follow him instantly, it’s his eye for detail that helps him to sense and scan organizational working environment and act according to the concerns of business prospects.

Shamit possesses the attributes of a democratic leader who understands the need of his employees. He encourages people to look for effective and results-oriented solutions independently and motivates his team of 300+ employees to take up responsibility and grow personally as well as professionally.

Synapse extends the work commencement date of its new branch at NSEZ, Noida

Synapse Communications Pvt. Ltd. has extended the work commencement date of its new branch at NSEZ, Noida. The decision of delaying in the new branch is taken by CEO of the company, Mr. Shamit Khemka and the board of directors on purview of the ongoing global economic meltdown.

In October, the company has announced the opening of its new branch located in NSEZ, Noida. According to company sources, the new setup is spread across a single floor with capacity to accommodate about 150 people. In addition to its state-of-the-art infrastructure, the other highlight of this office is its location that comes under much-talked NSEZ area.

What makes Noida SEZ so special?

Established in the year 1984, Noida EPZ was given the SEZ recognition in the year 2000 on the basis on its excellent performance in terms of exports, potential growth in information technology and gems and jewelry sectors. The facility spreads in the area of 310 acres wherein 151 units are currently operating at full-scale. Noida SEZ has contributed about 30% of total exports from SEZ in 2004.

Noida SEZ is among one of the most profitable SEZs in India. There are mainly two factors that make the location a truly happening place in terms of business development and revenue generation. NSEZ’s nearness to Delhi gives it a leading edge over other SEZs. The location is well-connected with Delhi and hence, the flow of skilled manpower, infrastructure and administration is much better as compared to other such facilities across the country.

In addition, The Uttar Pradesh government has given additional benefits to attract business owners to set up their establishments in NSEZ. Businesses having set up in NSEZ can avail many tax benefits including entry tax, trade tax and stamp.

Synapse plans to widen its reach and effectiveness via delivering quality and affordable IT offshore solution from this additional setup.

Shamit Khemka – nourishing an accountable and skilled talent pool

Teammates are the strength of a leader. But, a team, as a collection of disparate individuals, is an embodiment of heterogeneous characters. As no two human beings are alike, there might be several personal goals and aspirations of members of a team. It is the duty of the leader to make sure that personal goals are not conflicting with the goal of the team. The leader should lead the team in such a way that personal growth and organizational growth grow in a perfect harmony.
