“Ritu Sharma is a dynamic entrepreneur whonever hesitated to take risks. The first risk came into play when she decided to devote 100% in making her business work with a small seed capital and that’ when ‘Kibana Stores’ was born. Many would assume that it isn’t possible to start a business with that few amount, which did not bothered her. She never afraid to see the things limited as a handicap. She was too focused in growing her business and quick at enhancing opportunities in challenges.

She chose the product line that attracted her most- ‘Kibana Stores’ is a fruitful dream, “A dream to provide best in class, designer apparel to women at really competitive prices”. She learned from her experience that clothing is something that Indians traditionally like to, ‘feel’ – (as opposed to ‘seeing’) – before buying. In that case, Kibana changed the rules of the online shopping – She took the products close to customers letting them know the ease of online buying. This concept kicked off really well and Kibana Stores has grown well amongst connoisseurs of wonderful, affordable clothing.

But, Ritu’s dreams did not end with Kibana. While Ritu was pursuing her initial post qualification years as a home maker, she has spotted a wonderful opportunity that would mix two of the core sectors – IT and Education. With India’s IT revolution, IT & Education have become inseparable – they are symbiotic – both depend of each other. There is IT in Education and of course, Education in IT. That’s how WOIR as a concept, took off. WOIR aims to synergize the two dynamic fields of IT & Education by bringing them together. It is an educational platform that provides innovative courses in Robotics based on Arduino and Raspberry Pi programming platforms.”
