Ankur DCo Founder

India - New Delhi, Delhi

With a story close to that of Dangal, I started my professional career at the age of 4. It all started in early 90's in a forgotten part of the world (back then), i.e. Rural Haryana. I started training for Taekwondo.

- Much before I entered my teens/adolescence, I was already a Pro in Taekwondo. By the time I was in my early teens, I was representing India in International Tournaments. The dream of a Gold for India in the Olympics came crashing down due to some health/injury related issue.

- Later, started my first company at the age of 22 years. Did exceedingly well with selling a cloud based ERP solution to several schools in North India.

- Pursued PhD in Data Science from one of India's premier management school with a Prof. with a global reputation.

- Cognito Edge was founded and led to work with several state governments in strategy and mobilization. Worked in over 5 states directly with Chief Minister's office including states like Odisha, UP, Meghalaya, Delhi, Haryana and others.

- Founded, Scaled and Sold majority stake in AI based B2B Logistics Platform. Worked with over 150 corporate customers and made an early exit with selling the company to a US based NASDAQ listed conglomerate.

- Worked on several leadership roles in the corporate space and community building. Sustainable start-ups and leveraging tech for scaling an organization is key for success of any 1st generation entrepreneur.
