The
Company
An endeavor that has taken shape out of the collective
intellect and passion of a dozen young students of the
University of Kerala, SooryaKiran Bioinformatics (P)
Ltd, the new generation bioinformatics company, is propelled
by the thought of “contributing knowledge to enrich
the humanity”. Now located at Technopark campus
in Trivandrum, SooryaKiran has several trendsetting
elements to its credit. SooryaKiran has managed to put
Kerala on the bioinformatics map by being the first
such company to be set up in the State.
SooryaKiran Bioinformatics (P) Ltd
was launched in 2006. The valuable inputs from Dr. Oommen
V. Oommen, Head, Department of zoology, University of
Kerala and the support of the University of Kerala and
its Vice Chancellor Dr. M. K. Ramachandran Nair played
a significant role in helping the company make an admirable
start. The dream plan was concretized through the unstinted
backing of the Honorary Director of Centre for Bioinformatics,
Dr. Achuthsankar S. Nair who gave “wings to the
dreams”. With ambitions of taking the company
among the top 50 bioinformatics companies in the world
in the next ten years, the determined group behind SooryaKiran
wants it to be seen by the world as a knowledge base
in bioinformatics.
The company began its initial operations
from Industry Incubation Centre of Centre for Bioinformatics,
University of Kerala with minimal facilities. SooryaKiran
was able to open a front office inside the incubation
facility of Technopark in its 12 month of operations.
After the successful completion in the University Incubation
facility in mid 2008, it was shifted to Technopark,
from where it's operating now. |
