Happiest Minds Technologies, a next generation digital transformation, infrastructure, security and product engineering services Company, announced the acquisition of Cupola Technology – a specialized IoT services company with innovative solutions across the IoT lifecycle. This strategic acquisition is in line with Happiest Minds’ vision to expand upon its already thriving IoT business by bringing in complementary frameworks, ready to use solutions and marquee customers.
“We have found that organizations are rapidly moving from proof of concept to enterprise wide IoT rollouts. This has brought about the need for a dedicated IoT operations center with a solution centric approach. The acquisition of Cupola will add to our IoT center of excellence with a like-minded team that is focused towards driving customer value” said Sashi Kumar, CEO & MD of Happiest Minds Technologies.
“IoT is an integral part of our business strategy and in the last 3 years, we have gained considerable market traction and won IoT business across industries like manufacturing, transportation, utilities and retail. In looking for a company with differentiated IoT offerings that would enable us to build on our momentum, we found Cupola to be just the right choice” said Ashok Soota, Executive Chairman of Happiest Minds Technologies.
Cupola Technology was founded in 2011 by Ajay Agrawal and Huzefa Saifee and has delivered high value IoT projects to customers globally. Provided below are a few highlights:
• Designed and delivered an industrial IoT solution to manage plant personnel and assets for a US-based chemical factory.
• Developed an end-to-end IoT solution encompassing antenna management, premise management and weather monitoring for one of the largest Telcos in India.
• Opened new revenue streams for a Hong Kong based consumer electronics company by adding remote monitoring and management capabilities to their products.
“The addition of Cupola further strengthens our focus on the smart living, smart enterprise and smart industrial domains.
