Talking to Techcircle.in Kaushal Sarda, CEO, Kuliza, said one of the main agendas of associating with Blume Ventures is also to get more of the fund's portfolio companies on board since it has a good mix of technology companies in its portfolio. Sarda said the founder of the company, Kuliza, has recently moved to US where the company has opened a new office. "We get the majority of our clients from the US and thus it's a great focus area for us now. With the funds raised we also look to expand operations there," Sarda said. He said India is also a key market for the company and it is looking to expand its reach here. It has a few clients in Asian countries, apart from those in India and the US.
