Скачать или смотреть Sridhar Vembu: From Rural Tamil Nadu to Building Zoho’s $12 Billion Tech Empire

Sridhar Vembu, the founder of Zoho Corporation, has redefined the Indian tech landscape by building a $12 billion company from a small agricultural village in Tamil Nadu without external funding. A graduate of IIT Madras and Princeton University, Vembu chose to return to India from the US to create world-class software products while fueling rural development.

Zoho’s growth is a story of resilience and innovation, serving over 100 million users globally with cloud-based business tools. Vembu pioneered relocating tech jobs from urban centers to rural India, creating employment and launching Zoho Schools to train rural youth in advanced IT skills, often without formal degrees.

His newest venture, Arattai, is a "Digital Swadeshi" messaging app designed specifically for Indian rural and semi-urban users, optimized for low-end smartphones and poor network conditions. Vembu’s journey showcases how purpose, perseverance, and local talent can build globally competitive technology companies rooted in India.
