Nuclei is a fintech SaaS startup working already with over 18+ large enterprise clients across Asia in just a span of over 5 years.
Why are we building Nuclei
Before we started Nuclei, we listed down a few guiding principles. These were essentially our learning from the previous startups/companies:
- Think big, think global, and not limit ourselves only to India.
- Build a company. We wanted to be sustainable from day 1 and build a profitable business. This does not mean that we compromise on growth, but we most definitely avoid unsustainable growth.
- Build for the long term, not flip it in a few years.
- And most importantly, we wanted to change the perception about India, from being a back-office/outsourcing destination, to a product destination.
- All the above points came together to form Nuclei's vision - To build a well-respected global product company. At Nuclei, we are building innovative products that enable enterprises to increase customer engagement & build deeper relationships while transforming into a Super-app.
Nuclei is currently undergoing expansion across Asia, SEA & MEA
