Eswaran Arumugam, a farmer's son from a small village in Namakkal district, Tamil Nadu, built a software firm named Yaa Creations. Yaa Creations attracts clients from seven countries, and the company's annual project revenue is in crores. The company started from a humble beginning with only Rs 1 lakh and two laptops, and has grown to a team of 26 members.
Arumugam's journey to success began with his technical experience and the willingness to start small. In 2011, he joined a Chennai-based software startup, where he gained valuable experience and eventually decided to launch his own company. His company has worked on various projects, including website development, mobile applications, software solutions, and digital services.
Yaa Creations has also expanded its capabilities to incorporate advanced software products and artificial intelligence technologies. The company has worked with clients in Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Qatar, and Germany, among others. The company has also undertaken public-sector projects, such as a student survey for Tiruppur Municipal Corporation and a QR-code-based identity system for patient attendants at Salem Medical College Hospital.
Eswaran's story is an inspiration, showing that with technical experience, persistence, and a willingness to start small, an individual can build a successful software firm without starting in a metropolitan city.
