In an instant and constant communication age where technology plays a vital role in everybody’s life, increased media coverage ensures a global presence and helps to remain top of mind with key media and industry contacts. This is where XDBS Corporation comes in. Founded in 2011, as a five-member team, XDBS Corporation. It is headed by Kartik Anand, who, in his position as CEO and founder of the company, is responsible for guiding it to a global scale.
Kartik Anand isn’t just a one-hit wonder and he is responsible for many more of the services and brands we see around us. He is the founder and executive chairman of Kings Group Ventures, a UAE-based company that manages and advises businesses around the world. “We now have a host of business verticals under Kings Group Ventures (KGV). Our publishing and media companies provide content curation and marketing services to IT giants across the globe”, claimed Kartik. Besides this, he had numerous other businesses ranging from laundry and dry cleaning, automobile to food. He always wanted to venture into the food industry and his passion made him craft artisanal pizzas which were enriched with flavours and won over people globally. Their dairy business is also going well and this is why Kartik says, “We aim to create a niche in the food and beverage industry.” Speaking about the automobile business, they deal with premium or luxury cars which were owned previously by others.
