THE QILA STORY

FROM SCHOOL CORRIDORS
ALL THE WAY TO THE BOARDROOM

Sid and Vishal went from being schoolmates to cofounders for the first time in 2005, by creating Smart Wireless Pvt Ltd with Zee as co-investors. Smart Wireless was a mobile messaging company that allowed enterprises to send Application to Peer SMS messages, to users across the globe. Pretty cool right? No? Well in 2005 it was! In fact, at the time they were pioneers in a nascent technology. Having built the company up from 2000 to 500 million messages a month, they sold Smart Wireless Pvt Ltd to Croatian investors, Infobip. Their second innings as cofounders was as SmartCirqls – a company that created big data solutions in partnership with a globally leading platform. In a short time, they managed to make SmartCirqls a highly reputed brand across India, North America and East Asia. In 2020, Sid and Vishal sold SmartCirqls to a global system integrator. This series of successes brings us to QILA – Sid and Vishal’s biggest, and most game changing solution yet! Now that you’re here, be sure to check out our solutions and offerings. Let QILA take you to the front of the queue, in the global tokenization revolution!
