When Sakshi Jain, then a consultant, was buying coffee at a Starbucks in London in late 2011, she had not thought this would be the beginning of an entrepreneurial journey, spread across continents. She reached out to her friend Rishabh Khandelwal, a scientist with Geodesic in Bangalore, to discuss an idea that could potentially disrupt the suiting industry, that had seen very little change in distribution in the last 100 years.
Rishabh, whose credentials included an IIT entrance ranking of #280 in 2006, was fascinated with the challenge. Four months down the line, Rishabh quit his R&D job, and joined Sakshi, to dive into a completely different industry.
