Last week, on April 18th, 2024, we launched ZEPIC, the True Unified Customer Platform, to the world. We were thrilled to see some of the biggest media houses like Hindu BusinessLine, The Times of India, NDTV Profit, Inc42, StartupTN and more, featuring us!!

‍

We were totally blown away by all the congratulatory messages flooding in from different parts of the world- and our parents were over the moon when they saw us in the print version of The Times daily.

As the dust settles down, and as we head into another weekend, it's a perfect time for us to reflect on this crazy rollercoster ride we have all been on —  with our fair share of ups, downs, and everything in between!

They say it takes a village to build a startup, and that’s definitely true for us at ZEPIC. We couldn’t have done it without the support of so many amazing people!!

First off, thanks to every ZEPICian , their families and our friends for supporting us in building an EPIC culture. We are growing stronger together, milestone by milestone, and making every single day at ZEPIC an EPIC one.

More about our EPIC culture code here — it’s our secret sauce!
