Tushar Mittal – An Ingenious Entrepreneur Modernizing the Era of Corporate Interior Market


Being an entrepreneur can be easily said than done. It’s a journey of a lifetime where everyone goes through it a little bit differently. While the lucky few stumble into success in a matter of weeks after executing an innovative idea, others might spend a decade of their lives perfecting the art of entrepreneurship. It’s like filling a canvas with possibilities and then tapping the dreams which allow them to stay ahead of others, avoid mediocrity, and inspire others to outshine themselves. In India, entrepreneurial ventures are the centers of innovations which help to enhance the employment creation opportunities in the economy.

Studiokon Ventures Private Limited is one such prominent company which carries the true essence of an entrepreneurial venture and has evolved as a matured player in the interior design market. Studiokon is a leading provider of end-to-end corporate infrastructure solutions for the corporate, retail, and the hospitality spaces.

Insightful Leader at SKV

His sheer grit, determination, and with a never-say-die attitude, Tushar Mittal has flawlessly managed to create a niche for himself and his organization in just a small span of nine years. As the Founder and Managing Director of Studiokon, he has led the company to be a leading fit-out and workspace-integrator entity. A belief to excel, a desire to be successful, an urge to push the boundaries, and a conviction in the team is the four pillars that form the bedrock of Tushar. Along with his pragmatic approach to the business, his futuristic vision has assisted the company to reinforce itself as one of the leading innovators in the corporate design segment. An alumni from Harvard University, PGDM from NICMAR and B.E in Civil, Tushar perfectly understands the importance of innovation and customization. His deep business acumen has assisted him to steer the company from its humble beginning to a promising future.

Passion, perseverance, and persistence are the key attributes which keep Tushar motivated. Right from his early days, he was ambitious and had the determination to turn his dreams into a reality. He founded SKV in 2009 with a little investment of twelve thousand with just two employees. Today, the business has reached new heights with over two hundred dedicated professionals and over hundred fifty professional relationships nurtured over the years. SKV has had the privilege to have worked for some of the biggest and finest brands like Google, Amazon, Adidas, and PepsiCo to name a few.

A Humble Beginning of an Astounding Professional Odyssey

After completing his primary studies in a small village – Rudawal, in Rajasthan, he shifted to Kota to study Engineering and supported himself by working with an architectural firm. Despite going through trying financial times, he never left his dream of founding an interior design company. His first placement was at DLF where he worked for a span of 1.5 years and later moved to work with an independent contractor for two years. Much later in 2009, he commenced on his entrepreneurial journey with SKV and never looked back. As a leader, Tushar acknowledges the importance of teamwork and hence he was very selective in choosing his stakeholders, partners, vendors, and his core team members. He emphasizes team building activities, providing friendly environments, and implementing positive learning’s to motivate his workforce. He further adds that credibility, trust, and self-belief are the keys principals along with honesty and commitment which he has learned and continues to carry in his professional journey.

Swapan Rajdev: An Entrepreneur Building Complex Application with Simple Design


Entrepreneurship is an impressive word, a word that is filled with optimism and the prospect of joy. It is the persistent progression towards an innovative solution to a key problem. Also, it is the constant hunger for making things better than before. To be a successful entrepreneur one must have a passion for learning from a customer, employee, and failures. A dream does not become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination, and hard work to become a successful entrepreneur.

One such successful entrepreneur is Swapan Rajdev, Co-founder & Chief Technology Officer, at Haptik which is one of the world’s largest conversational AI platforms. He oversees the entire engineering function at Haptik which includes product development, scalability, and future vision from a technology and product perspective. Apart from this, he is consistently working on new and innovative ways to make Haptik one of the best places to work at.

An Entrepreneurial Journey

Like every other entrepreneur’s journey, Swapan’s journey has been a roller coaster ride filled with up and downs. From being featured in the app store as in one of the best apps in the country to running out of money, he has experienced all kinds of high and lows. He truly believes that to become a successful entrepreneur one needs to have a mentor or an advisor who can guide through the challenges that entrepreneurship throws. Apart from mentors, podcasts, and books have helped him to learn a lot over the years. “The hard things about hard things” by Ben Horowitz is one such book that helped him to become a better leader.

Swapan holds a B.Tech degree in Computer Engineering from University of Illinois Urbana Champaign. He started his career with Accenture, where he worked for three years as a technology consultant. Later he left the coveted job for a startup called Radius intelligence in the Silicon Valley. He was one of the first few who were involved in building business tools for marketing and sales professional at Radius. He is passionate about developing innovative mobile applications. His biggest success so far has been ‘snake classic’ which was ranked fourth on the app store in 2010.

The Start of Something Big

Swapan has been building Chatbots before the term was officially coined. He scaled them to handle more than two to three million requests a month, at a time when the concept was novel across the world. Swapan decided to start Haptik by leaving his job in one of the best cities in the world.

‘While talent can win games, teamwork wins the championships’

The main reason behind Haptik’s success is its dedicated employees and that’s what differentiates the entity from any other company. He has invested every ounce of energy into Haptik, to convert his dreams into a reality.
