  • WANotifier Joins TinySeed EMEA Fall 2024 Batch to Help Businesses Market at Scale on WhatsApp

    WANotifier Joins TinySeed EMEA Fall 2024 Batch to Help Businesses Market at Scale on WhatsApp

    Dover, Delaware/Pune (Maharashtra) [India], June 28: WANotifier, an all-in-one WhatsApp marketing SaaS platform built on the official WhatsApp API, announced today that it has joined the TinySeed EMEA Fall 2024 accelerator batch. The funding will be used to further develop its product and expand market reach to help small businesses effectively expand their reach and automate customer interactions on WhatsApp.

    Founded in 2022, WANotifier helps businesses streamline marketing, customer engagement, and automation through WhatsApp, one of the fastest-growing communication channels for businesses globally. As an official Meta Tech Partner, WANotifier offers a unique approach with 0% API markup and flexible onboarding options; businesses can either use a managed embedded signup flow or configure the API directly with their own credentials.

    “We had applied to TinySeed earlier as well but got in this time, and I couldn’t be happier,” said Ram Shengale, Founder of WANotifier. “I’ve always admired TinySeed’s mostly bootstrapped mindset toward building sustainable SaaS businesses. Being the only Indian company in this batch makes it even more special. The TinySeed network and mentors are extremely knowledgeable and friendly; you can ask highly specific questions and get actionable advice. That’s one of the best parts of being part of this fund.”

    The company plans to use the funding primarily for product development and marketing. “We’re behind a few of our competitors in terms of features, so our first goal is to build a strong development team and reach feature parity,” Shengale added. “At the same time, we’ll focus on penetrating key market segments. Our philosophy is simple: help businesses market at scale on WhatsApp without adding to the inherent complexity of the API. Many providers build clunky, hard-to-use software; we’re committed to delivering a clean, user-friendly experience for marketers and business owners.”

    WANotifier currently serves thousands of businesses across various industries, with notable customers including BITS Pilani, Iskcon, Dog Home Foundation, Bvlgari Casablanca, Mega Events (UK), and others. Having completed most core features recently, the team is now accelerating marketing efforts to reach new markets.

  • From Snacks to Celebrations: The Camy & Celejor Story

    From Snacks to Celebrations: The Camy & Celejor Story

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 27: In a city known for its ever-changing foodscape, Camy Wafers has remained a constant favourite since opening its doors in 1985. What began as a small shop selling hand-cut wafers has today become a household name across Mumbai. Camy’s offerings have grown with time, from their signature potato wafers in flavours like classic salted, masala, and cream & onion, to an entire range of snacks including sev, cubes, sticks, and other crispy delights. Yet, what truly sets Camy apart is its consistency, in supreme taste, texture, and the trust it has built over four decades.

    In 2005, the family behind Camy ventured into the world of desserts with the launch of Celejor, a premium cake brand that quickly earned recognition for its elegant creations and celebratory charm. From birthday favourites and anniversary centrepieces to festive collections and made-to-order masterpieces, Celejor’s cakes are crafted to suit every occasion and palate. The brand is known not just for its attention to detail and flavour, but also for its ability to bring joy to both everyday moments and milestone events.

    Together, Camy and Celejor tell a story of evolution grounded in quality. Whether it’s the crunch of a well-seasoned wafer or the sweetness of a beautifully frosted cake, both brands continue to deliver experiences that are familiar, festive, and always flavourful.

  • Unlocking Opportunities: Your Guide to Business Setup in Dubai

    Unlocking Opportunities: Your Guide to Business Setup in Dubai

    New Delhi [India], June 27: Dubai attracts more than just tourists; it draws people with ideas and the drive to build something of their own. Business setup in Dubai is straightforward, thanks to its modern systems, supportive rules, and global connections. Whether you’re setting up something small or planning something bigger, Dubai gives yopu the space and structure to grow. In the sections ahead, you’ll get a simple look at why Dubai works so well for business and how you can take the first few steps.

    Why Dubai Stands Out for Business?

    Here are the key reasons why business setup in Dubai is a great choice:

    A Natural Gateway to Global Markets

    Dubai is directly at the crossroads of three continents. Its location offers the company an advantage in matters of international business, transportation, and movement. The place alone is the beginning of endless possibilities; there are fast deliveries as well as cross-border access.

    Favourable Environment for Entrepreneurs

    Business setup in Dubai isn’t held back by unnecessary red tape. Many sectors now allow full foreign ownership. That means you’re in control, from your capital to your strategy, without needing a local partner in most cases.

    Choice of Business Zones That Suit Your Vision

    Dubai offers different ways to register your business. You can go for a Mainland setup, which gives you the freedom to operate across the UAE. Free Zones are great if you want tax perks and prefer industry-specific hubs. Offshore structures work well for those who don’t need a physical office but want to manage international operations.

    A Clean, Transparent Tax System

    Corporate taxes remain low. Free Zones, in particular, offer tax relief for several years, depending on the nature of your work. Even with new tax regulations, the rules are clear and manageable when appropriately structured.

    How to Start a Business in Dubai

    Let’s understand the simple process of business setup in Dubai:

    Step One – Lay Out the Basics

    First, know what you want to do. Decide on your business activity, your preferred company structure, and how many people will be involved. Clarity at this stage saves time later.

    Step Two – Pick the Right Location Type

    Next, decide where you want to register. If your business needs to serve the local market, go with the Mainland. If you’re focused on exports or digital services, Free Zones often make more sense. Offshore is good if you don’t plan to have a physical presence.

    Step Three – Apply for Your License

    The type of trade license depends on your activity. The paperwork may vary, but you’ll usually need identity documents, your business plan, and proof of your intended structure. This is where careful preparation helps avoid delays.

    Step Four – Handle Visas and Identification

    Once your company is approved, you’ll need to apply for a residence visa and an Emirates ID. If you’re bringing in employees or family members, the same applies to them. Each step requires specific documents, but it’s straightforward once you begin.

    Step Five – Open a Business Bank Account

    Without a corporate bank account, operations become difficult. There are local and international banks that you can use, yet you must satisfy their paperwork and regulatory requirements. It is worth selecting a bank which suits your financial demands and prospects.

    Conclusion: A City That Works for Your Business

    Opening a business in Dubai is much more than getting the paperwork straight. It is about putting yourself in a place that contributes positively towards your development. It is rare to find such a combination of freedom, reach and favourable regulations.

    When you consider that the ability to build with transparency and conviction on the first day is the key, the presence of the right professionals by your side can define your path. That’s where DhanGuard comes in. From business registration to tax structuring and ongoing support, their team makes the process easier and quicker so you can concentrate on what truly matters: your business.
