With this fund infusion, we are looking to further expand the company’s Research and Development (R&D) capabilities and hire the right talent. There is always a demand for the right talent and large established companies get the best talent easily. And as a new company, we have to develop an understanding in them that we are making an impact”.
Mr Nitin Narang, Director, CapGro Private Limited, said “We are delighted to have invested in Digiboxx. The Company has demonstrated tremendous growth since its inception and has developed a committed and loyal following.
