All the three co-founders of Druvaa, Ramani Kothandaraman, Milind Borate and Jaspreet Singh, had a plum job at Veritas before, which earned them bomb. But a dream of building their own company kept on haunting them constantly. The reason they give for their plunge into entrepreneurship is, "If Indians can build great products for foreign companies in India then why can't an Indian company build as great a product in India for an Indian company?"

With over 100 enterprises across the globe using its products, Druvaa believes that one doesn't need a huge team to build a world-class product; only a few technology enthusiasts can do it.
