Q. What was the need and purpose for a fresh brand identity for JK Tech? Have you also redefined your vision and mission and drawn out a new corporate strategy with the change in corporate identity?
A. JK Tech has embarked on a transformation journey, where we are changing the organisation from the ground up. This is the first time such an activity has taken place in over 20 years, hence it’s a drastic step. We want to be known as a new age, young, innovative organisation that is appealing to millennials. As we wanted to make the brand more social media-friendly, we decided to refresh the brand identity and make it more digital. The rebranding exercise also helped us to adapt and reinforce the company’s vision and mission among employees and customers. It re-instated our market offerings and positioning, which primarily differentiates us from our competitors.
Q. After how many years have you decided to go for this rebranding exercise? Could you elaborate the thought process and the idea about the new corporate identity?
A. This rebranding has been undertaken for the first time in 27 years and is a part of JK Tech’s next 5-year plan, laying the groundwork for the company’s future growth. With a new team comes a new way of thinking and this is what the rebranding exercise was all about. The process was quite lengthy, which involved laying out and comprehending the future aspirations of the organisation and in accordance redesigning the brand. We wanted the whole organisation to be part of this, hence we conducted multiple internal surveys before finalising the new logo.
Q. How did you communicate your new rebranding exercise to your stakeholders?
A. We undertook a 360-degree communication method to ensure that the right message is conveyed to the right set of target audience/ stakeholders. This included the following:

- Strong press mentions and activities.
- Unique logo reveal on the summit of Mt Everest. First ever company to do so.
- Continued effort for strong brand presence on Social Media.
- Communication to partners, customers and stakeholders.

Q. Technology companies and brands have performed well. What’s the future going to be and what’s your take on AI and ML? Can you also upon touch on your growth strategy for the next 3-5 years?
A. Several technologies have accelerated the pace at which the tech industry is growing. Some interesting trends to note are:
- Pandemic accelerated Digital Transformation
The COVID-19 pandemic has radically altered the way we work. Organisations have had to figure out how to swiftly integrate digital solutions so that remote workers can be productive and efficient. Companies have increased the pace off the digitization of their customer and supply-chain contacts, as well as their internal operations.
- Early adaptors have succeeded
In the commercial world, early adopters take a significant level of risk because they are utilizing a product or technology that has not yet been perfected. They frequently pay a premium for the opportunity to be the first to experience a product. But along with the risk, comes the first-mover advantage as they are able to understand the technology before their competitors.
- AI and ML changing as we speak. Constant innovation is the key
AI & ML is a broad tool that allows people to rethink how they combine data, analyse it, and use the ensuing insights to make better decisions – and it’s already affecting every aspect of life. It is a technology that is revolutionising every aspect of existence. It’s a versatile tool that allows people to rethink how they integrate data, evaluate it, and use the insights to make better decisions. Our goal with this comprehensive review is to explain AI to policymakers, opinion leaders, and interested observers, and to show how AI is already changing the world.
