Vikram's journey from health crisis to blockchain pioneer offers a masterclass in resilient entrepreneurship. After being bedridden with spondylitis in 2004, he launched what would become India's largest blockchain consulting firm out of necessity, not grand ambition. Today, that decision has evolved into a 700-person operation transforming how we think about blockchain implementation across industries.
The conversation reveals Vikram's entrepreneurial philosophy centered on three critical factors: hunger (which must come intrinsically), humility, and smartness. Coming from modest beginnings and losing his father at 12, Vikram chose not to attend college to avoid burdening his mother—instead combining self-taught skills in design, technology, and content to forge his unique path.
What truly distinguishes NTR Solutions is their revolutionary approach to talent acquisition. Rather than competing for graduates from elite institutions, they identify individuals with positive attitudes and invest in developing their technical skills. "Skills can always be taught as long as you have the right attitude," explains Vikram, defining the ideal attitude as "the ability to embrace challenges without losing enthusiasm."
The company's blockchain innovations span multiple sectors, from user-friendly digital wallets to their groundbreaking solution for preventing question paper leaks in government exams—a chronic problem across many Asian countries. This blockchain-powered system has already made history in India by enabling trustless exam paper creation without human intervention.
Beyond building products, Vikram's vision extends to transforming his home base of Mohali into "the blockchain capital of India," creating educational pathways for local talent to thrive in this emerging technology. His perspective on leadership—"It's not like you are employing team members; first you are employed to them"—reveals why his approach has succeeded where others have faltered in the volatile blockchain space.
