Geokno is a company that is still at the incubation stage at IIT Kanpur and Balaji Nagaran, the man behind it, candidly admits he does not even have a clear business plan as of now. Yet, it is his pioneering technology-applying laser scanning techniques in Geographic Information Systems, that helps his venture find a place on this list. To be sure, in the developed world, this technology has been around for well over a decade now, but it is only coming in India and not more than 2-3 players are experimenting with it as of now. Nagarajan already has a pilot project commissioned by IRCON for its ambitious railway project in Kashmir. He now plans to tap bigger construction and infrastructure players in the private sector. And considering he has he first movers' advantage in a highly specialized field, he can look forward to good times ahead.
