Hyderabad: Hyderabad-based Guide'S-ME Consultancy Services Pvt Ltd (GCSPL), a startup founded by retired professionals signed an MoU with the Technical Board, IIT Guwahati. The MoU was signed and exchanged by Prof Chivukula V Sastri of IIT Guwahati and Directors of GCSPL, Chalam CS, Anil Kumar Siddu and Pavanraj Nedunuriat at T-Hub on Monday.
GCSPL launched SeniorExperts.in, a discovery platform for retired seniors. It has 16,000 senior experts and 500 SMEs are already on board. Various Surveys have revealed that 85 per cent of retirees can be productive even after retirement. India has 158 million senior citizens. There are 60 million MSMEs. The platform SeniorExperts bridges the gap. Retired senior experts who have expertise look for engagement. On the other hand, SMEs need expert guidance but they can't afford it. The retired experts' services can be put to use.
Prof Chivukula V Sastri said, "With this MoU, Cream of the Technical Board IIT-Guwahati from multi-disciplines will develop a futuristic and robust product and IIT students who look for exposure will get that required exposure by working on the project. So the industry and academia gap that is prevailing can be reduced. It is a win-win project for all."
