Imagine transforming a space the size of Eden Gardens, into full-fledged co-living residences within one month. Or personalizing over 2 lakh meals a day for tens of thousands of choosey students. Well, at Stanza Living, we don’t merely imagine these. We have built these capabilities. With our industry-first full-stack technology ecosystem. An ecosystem that’s taken us from a bootstrapped startup to India's largest managed-accommodation provider for students and young working professionals. In just 3 years. Along the way, giants of the venture capitalist world - Equity International, Falcon Edge Capital, Sequoia India, Matrix, Accel Partners and Alteria Capital to name a few - have put their confidence in us. Or to be specific, in the tech innovations we’ve introduced to a traditional industry. Like a digital process that allows us to onboard 3X as many residents as everyone else in the business. Like machine-learning algorithms that predict the kind of activity our residents would love at their next community event. Like an A.I.-powered security infrastructure that keeps an eye out for suspicious activity on our premises. Like all the out-of-the-box ideas you could bring to the table too, if you were part of our team at Stanza Living. Ideas that could redefine the way India lives, by redefining what tech can achieve. Just imagine.
