They say every cloud has a silver lining. While the Covid-19 pandemic has brought about mass
devastation in its wake, it seems to have brought to the brim the best aspects of true humanity. The pandemic has truly shown us the importance of empathy and leadership and several industry stalwarts have come forth and risen to the occasion. A name that stands out bright
happens to be that of entrepreneur-turned-philanthropist Mr. Rajesh Vaidya. In these testing times, Mr. Vaidya has truly proven the importance of lending the proverbial helping hand.
Mr. Vaidya has several glorious epithets that he has spent years earning but chooses to live by his motto of being “a leader empowering others” to transform them into leaders. He has consciously decided to not merely inspire others to make the world a better place but lead by example. Having resolved to place humanity above everything else, Mr. Vaidya actively uses his entrepreneurial ventures combined with entrepreneurial foresight to ease the conditions of the less fortunate. Amidst the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, his Chandigarh-based venture BlackBox GPS Technologies Private Limited teamed up with the District Division of the Red Cross Society of Bilaspur to equip a total of twelve ambulances with the latest GPS technology. The Innova-borne ambulance taxi cars dedicated especially to the cause of Coronavirus patients are now fully capable of transferring crucial data regarding location, directions and estimated time of arrival to the patients and their family desperately waiting for help to arrive. An added benefit is that the district administration can also keep an eye on the vehicles and ensure smooth and regulated use. These makeshift ambulances have been assigned to the district in particular and may be made available to reach the nearest Covid Relief Centre in the shortest possible time. The spokesperson of the District Red Cross Society agrees. “It is quite rare and admirable to see someone work so selflessly towards a noble cause”, says Mr. Rohit Jamwal. “I thank Blackbox GPS Technologies Private Limited for their commendable contribution towards relief work in the district”, he added.
The Journey So Far
After graduating from Jawaharlal Nehru Engineering College with a degree in Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering, Mr. Vaidya set about getting to understand the domain of technology in various practical roles. The decade of the 2000s saw the advent of GPS Technologies and there has been no looking back ever since.
What is Blackbox GPS Technology all about?
To put it quite briefly, Blackbox GPS Technology is India’s largest GPS Tracking Technology Manufacturing Company. When the concept of GPS was unheard of in Indian markets, the team at BlackBox had already started with advanced Research and Development in the field. Since the year 2000, Mr. Vaidya has been involved in several pioneering projects including TOGO The Vehicle Guard and Blackbox GPS Technology Private Limited. The latter has dedicated itself in furthering the cause of the Indian Technology Ecosystem. BlackBox GP Technology boasts of multiple GPS-Tracking Devices which makes it the industry leader among vehicle-tracking systems in India. Innovation, however, has no end. In 2003, the company launched an offline vehicle management system that was smooth, efficient and reliable. Nothing of this kind had been conceived in the country which made Blackbox GPS Technology the pioneer in this field as well thereby setting the company ahead by a decade of extensive research and testing. At present, the company is into their fourth generation of patented GPS Blackbox Tracking System which makes use of GPRS Communication for real-time tracking and monitoring. To add the cherry to the cake, BlackBox GPS Technology has been termed the fastest-growing GPS Tracker Company in India. Most importantly, BlackBox GPS Technology is one of the very few ARAI- approved Vehicle Tracking Systems in India in different states.
BlackBox GPS Technology is not the only dream that Mr. Vaidya has transformed into reality. Another feather to his cap and to the cap of BlackBox GPS Technology is sister company Togo- The Vehicle Guard. TogoGuard works primarily in the domains of car recovery and car safety GPS Device System.
