Can you share more about Alogic's expansion plans in India and how it aligns with the company's global strategy?
We are currently focused on expanding our product range in India, specifically in the end-user computing space. Recently, we launched our Monitor, Keyboard, and Mouse range in the Indian market, furthering our vision of providing cutting-edge technology to local users. This initiative aligns with our global strategy of creating an autonomous environment around a core computing machine.
Our global approach involves diversification into various peripherals—monitors, keyboards, mice, webcams, docks—designed to enable users to break free from the limitations imposed by major OEMs. With affordable and versatile solutions, we cater to corporates and small businesses alike. Alogic, headquartered in California, already operates in 28 countries, and by 2030, we aim to expand into all major markets worldwide. Our goal is to grow our team of skilled professionals who are passionate about technology and share our vision for the future.
What unique challenges and opportunities have you observed in the Indian market, compared to other regions where Alogic operates?
