RenewBuy Co-Founder & CEO, Balachander Sekhar shared, “RenewBuy has brought massive efficiency in the sales process; we want to leverage this to deliver better pricing to customers. With low penetration levels currently, we will see exponential growth for RenewBuy in the next two decades. With Dai-ichi coming on board, we have found an ideal partner who shares our long-term vision. It provides us with an incredible growth opportunity, not only in India but across Asian markets, by leveraging our technology.”
