TradeSpace – An Integrated Trade Finance Engine

Liquid money or simply cash is the very need of any old school as well as modern age businesses. Organisational decisions, capital and operational expenditures, time critical processes, growth, etc. are driven by then weight of money in their bank accounts.

Liquid money or simply cash is the very need of any old school as well as modern age businesses. Organisational decisions, capital and operational expenditures, time critical processes, growth, etc. are driven by then weight of money in their bank accounts. Cash gives an organisation the ability to act in a corresponding situation and hence, keep up with the market. Financial returns are directly co-related with the input of cash being utilised to seize a given opportunity. Today’s businesses are completely aware of this need, and with the arrival of micro-scale businesses, startups and the other new age businesses, having free cash-flows is now become a necessity. There is an exponential increase in the demand for capital which are characterised by heterogeneous lines of business, credit requirements and disparate financial data which in turn is complicating the task of providing uniform credit to the businesses for their functioning. Banking systems are also not able to cope up with this demand for real-time access to the capital. On demand credit is extremely difficult to achieve and takes a considerable amount of time which is slowing down an organisation’s pace and hence, increasing their time to market. The complexity of the current credit disbursal institutions is increased due to their disconnected nature and in turn increasing the time required for credit disbursal. TradeSpace, an integrated trade finance platform provides an exceptional solution to these cash-flow problems by enabling the businesses to utilise their receivables to generate runtime capital and by abstracting the complex processes involved in credit disbursal cycles thus, providing the organisations the ability to focus more on their business rather than running for operational capital.

Combating Dirty Data using Data Virtualization

Data is the new Gold of the modern age. Organisational decisions, artificial intelligence, machine learning, time critical processes, analytics, etc. are driven by highly profiled data. Data gives an organisation the ability to act in a corresponding situation and hence, keep up with the market. Financial returns are directly associated with the quality of data being used. Today's world has experienced a data explosion with the advent of data sources like Hadoop, data lakes, clusters and many more. Even more, the day to day devices that we use collect data to present meaningful statistics to us. There is an exponential increase in data volumes which are characterised by heterogeneous data formats and disparate data sources which in turn is complicating the task of providing uniform and profiled data to the business users for analysis. Warehousing is also not able to cope up with the on-demand real-time data access. Holistic view of the entire data is extremely difficult to achieve and takes a considerable amount of time which is slowing down an organisation's decision making capabilities. The complexity of the current systems has increased due to the interconnected nature of widely distributed systems which share data. Dirty data i.e. data which is inaccurate, inconsistent, unclean or incomplete is spread all across. As all the data is not required garbage data, there is no point in developing your business intelligence over this data. Data Clarity used along with Data Virtualization provides an exceptional solution to these problems by handling the complex data workloads with respect to heterogeneous data and disparate data sources and provides a holistic view of the data to the business organisation.

Extreme dependency on non-renewable sources of energy has resulted in their exploitation. Moreover, inefficient use of unending renewable sources because of the lack in development of technology has become a great challenge. In order to head towards a greener way, we are developing Artificial Light Charging. The challenge is to make an optimised use of the unending light resources. This innovation makes the use of surrounding light energy as a primary source to charge portable or fixed electronic devices. The technology basically comprises the use of a three-layered technology to increase the energy conversion efficiency. This will permanently solve the charging any electronic device that requires electricity and is surrounded by light.
