Dr. Piyush Singhal

CEO, Jagannath Polymers Pvt Ltd · Computer science engineer · Coder

I make packaging, and I write code. People think those are two different worlds. For me they are one. A roll of tape, a sheet of honeycomb paper and a few hundred lines of software all do the same job. They protect something on its way to someone.

I started at Jagannath Polymers Pvt Ltd in 2009, part-time, while I was still studying. I trained as a computer science engineer, and I have led the company as CEO since 2015. Today our packaging travels to 20+ countries. What I am building next… I will tell you when it is ready.

    Of all the management advice I have heard, his is the line I remember.

    Note

    A blade worth one rupee can decide the fate of a whole lot of goods.

    When it is sharp, nobody notices it. When it goes blunt, the cut goes rough, and a good product becomes a rejected one.

    In a factory, the cheapest part is often the one that matters most.

    Why I bet on paper in 2018
