Please tell us a little about your entrepreneurial journey

I was more inclined towards the development side and was looking over a team of 3 developers. We had started working only as a blockchain development company in our prime years.
It took a lot of conviction, trust and teamwork to reach the position we are in today. Now, we have more than 750 employees across the globe and have branched our services to more technologies and multiple industries than before.

What have been some of your failures, and what have you learned from them?
Gurpreet Singh Walia: I never consider anything a failure. In order to reach a position of success, we have to have the confidence to face challenges.
There have been several projects that we decided to embark on but did not get the results we expected. But, it is only projects like this that help us analyze our shortcomings and work on them.
That’s how we have become the top blockchain development company in the US in a matter of a few years.
Key things to consider before starting a Business
Gurpreet Singh Walia: A clear mission is one of the most important things to consider before starting a business. It helps align the mindset of the team and set short-term and long term goals accordingly.
The next thing to keep in mind is the team. Your core team forms the foundation of the business. Invest time and money in building a skilled core team.
Finally, fund management. Finances are required to build any business. You must learn to organize and manage the capital to keep track of the investments and the returns.
If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be?
Gurpreet Singh Walia: Invest in a good team. I have always been outspoken about the importance of having good assets.
As an owner, you have to be careful at building a skillful team, because the investment in assets will show up in the results and success of the company.
Your success tips for young and aspiring entrepreneurs
Gurpreet Singh Walia: Always move forward with a positive mindset. Never give up because of one failure. The struggle is what paves the way to success. No good company, business or brand comes out of sheer luck.
Have perseverance, keep on working hard, believe in yourself and trust your decisions. All of it will be worth it in the end.
