Avalon Technology

We are located in Kasaba Peth, which is one of the oldest parts of Pune. Being at Avalon Technology, tucked away in the care of S. P. Krishanakumar’s place, feels like being part of the city's history. The lanes around here are so thin that two cars can barely pass each other, and the buildings are packed tightly together. It’s a very lively area with lots of small workshops and old houses. Our office isn't big, it's just a few rooms where we have our gear set up. You can smell the food cooking from the neighbors' kitchens and hear the sounds of the market not too far away. It’s not the kind of place where you’d expect a technology company to be, but we like the character of it. We don't have a fancy lobby or a receptionist. If someone comes by, one of us just gets up from our chair to see who it is. The walls are thick and the floors are stone, which is nice when the Pune heat gets intense in April. We just focus on the work we have in front of us. There is always something happening on the street, whether it’s a festival procession or just people arguing over a scooter spot. It’s a bit messy and loud sometimes, but it’s home for us. We just keep our heads down and get through our lists every day.
