iXiGO.com, a travel search engine launched in June this year, is one of the very few “startup” innovators and certainly the youngest company on the list, which includes leading established names in the Indian and International IT industry, including Infosys Technologies, Tata Consultancy Services, Wipro Technologies, Reliance Communications, and Media Labs Asia among others. The only other online companies in the list are BharatMatrimony, a leading online matrimony classifieds site and MakeMyTrip.com, India’s largest online travel agency.
iXiGO.com’s unique market approach, product usability, and passionate management team have been key contributors to its path-breaking success. “At iXiGO.com, our mandate is to innovate in every aspect of the product, be it design, speed, accuracy, transparency or overall user experience. We have consistently set new benchmarks on all these fronts, not just in India, but globally. We believe that Innovation and India can be synonyms”, said Rajnish Kumar, Co-founder and VP, Technology. Rajnish is an IIT Kanpur graduate who came back to India with his ex-colleagues to launch iXiGO from their shared apartment’s living room in Gurgaon.
“We are changing the rules of the game. In what was considered a competitive online travel vertical, our disruptive business model has created new market space and created a blue ocean, where we are able to deliver more value to both our suppliers (airlines) and users”, said Aloke, Founder-CEO, an INSEAD MBA, IIT Kanpur alumni and avid world traveller.
According to NASSCOM, companies such as iXiGO.com “have managed to stand out and differentiate themselves in highly competitive, often adverse market conditions and carved a niche for themselves using breakthrough technological products and novel market initiatives."
