Our Team

121connects is founded by 3 colleagues who decided to put their collective 75+ years of experience, serving the IT community in India, to build a platform that enables personal connections in a whole new way. As former CEO, CIO, and Programs Director of a global IT media company, the trio realise that technology--deployed with a human touch--can dramatically change how IT leaders meet and engage in a digitally transformed world. They are backed by a dynamic, young and enthusiastic team that is eager to change the marketing paradigm.
