Capximize: Revolutionizing Global Manufacturing Capacities
The Genesis
Taking the initiative of our honourable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi of “Make in India” the concept of Capximize India was formed. According to the Government statistics as of June’21, India utilise barely 60% of its installed manufacturing capacities whereas even developing countries like Brazil and Vietnam utilize 83% – 84% of their installed capacities.
A global platform offering detailed information on available surplus manufacturing capacities in India is the genesis of creating this platform. Capximize is an innovative knowledge-based global digital platform that facilitates utilization of surplus manufacturing capacities in India by both domestic and international corporations. This cutting-edge platform utilizes a proprietary algorithm to provide tailored recommendations for corporates seeking manufacturing partners. We were awarded as the most innovating start-up of the year-2023 by Bombay Industries Association.
In essence, if you are a manufacturer based anywhere in India with a valid registered GST number, you can easily list your manufacturing capacity on the Capximize Platform. Once registered, your capacities become visible to global and Indian companies seeking manufacturing partners, allowing them to connect with you and share their requirements.
Capximize essentially acts as an extended marketing arm for companies offering manufacturing capacities, providing them with global visibility and access to new business opportunities. On the other hand, for companies in search of manufacturing partners, Capximize serves as an extended vendor development arm, offering a wide array of pan-Indian manufacturing options.
The Team
Capximize is a venture of a reputed entrepreneurial Indian group, backed by a professional leadership team. Capximize started with the coming together of three minds passionate about contributing to the growth of the manufacturing sector viz. Siddharth Mehra, Avinash Bapat and Uday Maydeo. Our team is passionate about transforming the manufacturing landscape by making industries utilize their assets better.
The Journey
In 2020, we conducted a study of the domestic B2B manufacturing companies to identify the sectors which can benefit the most from capacity collaboration between organisations with surplus manufacturing capacities and organisations seeking capacity. We onboarded industry experts from all the five sectors to study the manufacturing processes followed in each sector and sub-sector to arrive at the data points that needed to be gathered to enable capacity collaboration. Based on the findings, a management team was put in place.
A US based technology firm was engaged to design the UI/UX and a proprietary algorithm. Offices were put in place in multiple cities. Alliances and marketing events were rolled out.
Once we were ready, the platform was launched for the public in January 2022. Capximize In short span of time has acquired 5000+ corporates as our members. 100+ deals are ongoing on Capximize platform between its members with several multi crore rupees deals already concluded between the members.
The Vision and Mission of Capximize:
