This Bootstrapped Startup Is Making Video Conferencing A Breeze And It’s Winning At It

    Remember that time when you were at a meeting and just could not manage to get connected to the projector or even the internet? That’s a scene which repeats itself in many meeting rooms. Yes, even in 2017.

   Tenveo has also developed an HD web camera with a 2.1 megapixel sensor, 135 degree field of view and 20X zoom,  to use with any video conference software.This is TEVO-HD9620.

    According to a 2016 report, web conferencing is a $2.4 billion market globally and is growing with more users moving from stand-alone audio solutions to web and video conferencing solutions. And one of the key factors driving this growth is lower price solutions.

    Tenveo is targeting smaller huddle rooms and conference rooms, for 6-8 people, where price is a factor and larger boardroom solutions from companies like Cisco and Polycom would be an overkill.

    Currently the primary market for Tenveo is the abroad market, where it counts many educational institutions, technology companies and law enforcement agencies amongst its clients. But the company is also pushing its market into India gradually and has partnered with some office equipment agency for sales and distribution.

    The company has been adopted by a large software service company in China to equip 250 of their meeting rooms with China mobile and Ping An says that they will further expand to 1000 rooms in the coming 6 months.

    Hardware startups are hard to build in India. But not only does Tenveo have traction with customers, it has been completely bootstrapped. “We’ve not raised a single dime and we are profitable. This year we are looking to do about $6 million in sales with all the product lineup together,” he said.
