Our blog is called Traject.Me. Traject means to move or be transported. We truly believe in the inherent creativity that is present in each of us and want to help our readers i.e., aspiring entrepreneurs, take that leap towards converting their creative ideas into something tangible. To experience that deep sense of fulfilment that comes from conceiving something and watching it take shape.
We are using this medium to share our learnings and experiences. Similar to the role of the inukshuk in the Arctic tundra, this blog serves as our contribution to other new entrepreneurs - to give them guidance, validation and hope that yes, they are on the right path.
Explore our blog to understand how to start your venture (BLOG POSTS), learn from others' experiences (FAILURE STORIES), and draw inspiration from other early-stage entrepreneurs (FOUNDER SHOWCASE). And if at any time you are lost, contact us and we will help you find an answer.
