In the year 2016, this almost fresh from the college girl, who hailed from Burdwan, a small town of West Bengal dared to dream!

At that point in time, she did not have anything in her favor, apart from a degree in software engineering. She had been an average student all through her life, and when she shifted to Kolkata for further studies, with the sudden glam and glitter, she, for a while, indulged herself with alcohol and nightlife.

But, even with all these, she never gave up on herself and continued to dream.

Meet that reckless but ambitious, average student without any fancy degree, but passionate about her work, who started a company in her mid-twenties, and today the net valuation of the company is around twelve million dollars.

Meet Ms. Aunkita Nandi – the co-founder and Managing Director of Tier5 Technology Solutions Pvt. Ltd, who founded the company in 2016, with her partner, another software engineer without any fancy degree but with zeal like steel, Mr. Jon Vaughn, who is the CEO of Tier5.

Just within 5 years since the inception of the company, Tier5 has been able to achieve a name in the market for innovative products and services. Starting its journey as the first-ever community-owned SaaS (software as a service) firm with the little amount she saved from her assignments as an independent software developer before, rented computers and two people… the company today has 21 efficient and well-appreciated products in the kitty, more than100 employees, Offices in USA and Kolkata, over 15000 happy customers globally and a zeal that is all set to spread the empire.

And all these were possible before Ms. Nandi turned 30!

So, this is the message, if these two simple and average students could make a difference, just with their vision and passion… you can too!

The entire world is going through a testing time. This pandemic taught us some very important lessons. But the most important one was to stay mentally positive, strive hard and keep on trying. These factors make everything possible. So much so, that when the company was started, they solely depended on organic leads from social media platforms for assignments, and today the customer base that they have are the biggest advertisers of the brand and they receive more and more leads on a daily basis. The company that started from a tiny two-room space owns a permanent space in many hearts.

This is something that these two very, very average people dreamt of…and this dream kept them going and achieving a feat!

So, buckle up! If they could, you can too!
