| BACKGROUND |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Until
1994, Internet was mainly confined to the technical community. In
1994, Mosaic (known as Internet Browser),developed by University of
Illinois provided a tool for even the computer illiterate to access
the Internet.
Following Industrial Revolution and Computer Revolution, Internet Revolution was born. Internet became a vehicle for small and large companies to showcase their products and services to potential buyers thousands of miles away, 24 hours a day. Visibility in the International market place was an expensive option for Indian companies. It was a catch-22 situation. You cannot get visibility unless you are big and you cannot become big without visibility. When a paradigm changes, everybody is back to zero. The World Wide Web is the paradigm that is going to erase the advantages of foreign companies. And it is happening now. The barriers of time, distance and financial viability disappeared. The world became boundary less. Five Non-resident Indians (see profile below) saw this as an opportunity to help businesses in their motherland compete in the Global market on an even keel with the multi - national conglomerates. WebIndia (IBIS Inc.) was thus born in October 1994 as a vehicle for Indian businesses to sell products, explore import/export opportunities, explore the possibility of technical collaboration, etc. WebIndia is the first Indian site dedicated solely to Indian businesses. WebIndia rapidly grew from to over 2600 customers in 1999. WebIndia dedicated itself to this bleeding edge technology with a vision to bring the value of internet to the masses in emerging countries. |

| WebIndia realised that to serve customers in India, an operation in India has to be established to feel the pulse of the customers and also to serve their needs. WebIndia's search for a VP Marketing ended with an IIM professional, Manohar. Manohar was given the challenging task to put as many Indian companies as possible on the Internet map through WebIndia. Manohar accepted this challenge and as Sep, 1999. WebIndia has over 2600 customers who have reaped the benefits of conducting business via WebIndia at low cost. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
