Subhangini Aggarwal Interacts With Divya Goyal, Co-founder, Campify And Spoke To Her
How did the entrepreneurial bug bite you?I started my career as a Mobile Developer right out of college after completing my B.Tech. Spent close to 5 years working on mobile technology and leading iOS & Android development teams. I was looking out for something much more challenging and interesting to do so that i can utilize my skills up to their best level.
After 2 years of entrepreneurial experience, I founded Campify with the goal of providing one stop information platform to students catering to most of their needs. Before Campify, I co-founded a successful startup called NZT Solutions, A solution provider IT company.
About CampifyI founded Campify in February 2016. I started with my husband, Tushar Goyal. He is Co-Founder in Campify. We are a very strong and experienced team. I have 6+ years of experience in IT industry and looking after overall operations & strategy of company. Whereas my co-founder has extensive experience in marketing field from over a decade and he is leading marketing team in Campify. We also have a full time working CTO, Ankit Mittal who has 5 years of experience in development field and is presently leading technical team of 10 people.
How does Campify work? Campify simplify student’s life by providing one stop solution to them. Presently academic files are spread to students in the form of hard copies like previous year papers, notes, syllabus etc also academic information like news, events, notices disproportionately spread via WhatsApp groups and facebook pages. Students also face issue in asking questions to their alumni or college mates. Campify solve these issues by bringing all the things on one platform. They can now easily access files in the form of soft copies, they can have instant access to notices, campus news, events and they can also resolve their queries via question & answer wall.
Special key features Key Features include - Academic files like previous year papers, syllabus, notes, Campus news & events, Question Answer forums & academic notifications.
Challenges facedThe biggest challenge was to close our previous venture NZT Solutions and simultaneously retaining our core team to work on Campify.
