Any solution worth anything is unfailingly preceded by clear articulation of a problem worth solving. Even a modest study of Indian Packaging industry would lead someone to observe the enormous fragmentation, chaos and rampant unreliability pervading the ecosystem. When businesses are unable to cope even with these basic challenges, how can they even think of materializing an eco-friendly & resource-efficient packaging economy? These are some hardcore problems with real-world consequences which our country is hard-pressed to solve.
Bizongo was conceived as an answer to these first level challenges of disorganization in the industry. We employed technology to build a business model that can streamline the packaging value-chain & has enormous potential to scale sustainably. Our potential to fill this vacuum was recognized early on by Accel Partners and IDG Ventures who jointly led our Series A funding. Most recently, B Capital group, a global tech fund led by Facebook co-founder Mr. Eduardo Savarin, invested in our technological capabilities when it jointly led our Series B funding with IFC.
The International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private-sector investment arm of the World Bank, cited our positive ecosystem impact towards the network of 30,000 SMEs operating in the packaging industry, as one of the core reasons for their investment decision. Beyond these bastions of support, we are extremely grateful to have found validation by various authoritative institutions including Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia. Being the only major B2B player in the country with such an unprecedented model has lent us enormous scope of experimentation in our efforts to break new grounds. Dreaming and learning together thus, we have grown from a team of 3, founded in 2015, to a 250+ strong family with office presence across Mumbai, Gurgaon and Bengaluru. So those who strive for opportunities to rise above their own limitations, who seek to build an ecosystem of positive change and to find remarkable solutions to challenges where none existed before, such creators would find a welcome abode in Bizongo.

Looking for someone who breathes and speaks infrastructure and automation. We want to setup an internal PaaS which achieves single click deployments, 100 percent uptime, full application monitoring and ability to do 100 Deployments per day if needed and finally should be cloud agnostic. This is the opportunity and someone who can do this under 6 months is our guy. About Chalo: Chalo is a free app that tracks ‍‍‍buses live and tells you what time your bus will reach your stop. Now you never have to wait at a bus stop ever again. Transport is fast becoming a fundamental need - like water or air. More people are travelling more and more every day. Yet, only around 15% of Indians can afford their own car, private taxi or a two-wheeler. The remaining 85% depend on public transport. Moreover, with growing traffic and congestion it’s becoming increasingly clear that private transport is causing more problems that it is solving; and a small but significant (and growing) segment are outright rejecting car ownership, even if they can afford it. At Chalo, our core purpose is to make travel better for everyone, and we believe that our cities, our health and our lives will be better when we improve the way we travel. We have begun our journey by focusing on bus travel - making it easier for those that rely on it, and also for those that are choosing it. Buses, as a mode of transport, form the core architecture of any city's transport system. They also offer the largest improvement areas and the largest opportunity to create an impact, with 2 out of 3 public transport users depending on buses for their travel. We welcome a conversation with anyone who shares our vision and values, and especially those who wish to offer a counter-point :-) Chalo!
