The core idea was to seamlessly integrate tech into their lifestyle and help evolve the way they connect, express, and thrive in the modern world. IBT: What are the key factors that have contributed to Crossbeats' rapid growth? Archit: In 2015, our journey began as an audio brand, highly praised by customers for their exceptional experience. Recognized as Amazon's bestseller in 2016, we launched our True Wireless Earbuds in 2017, tailored specifically to meet the demands of Indian consumers. Seeing the tremendous growth in our audio segment, we decided to acknowledge the market gap in the smartwatch segment and launched products from the Crossbeats - "House of wearables". By incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as AMOLED and ANC into our smartwatches and earbuds, elevated the bar for product features and provided an improved experience among the competition. We later on went onto expanding our product line with the addition of soundbars, headphones, and more.

By establishing local manufacturing hubs, we plan on generating new job opportunities and fostering talent development within the country.
