the following student is in total contrast with the owner of Cillix. Both entrepreneurs have total different, backgrounds, motives and objectives. nonetheless, they have some things in common. in order to be an entrepreneur you will have to have a lot of the following ingredients: commitment, risk tolerance, networking, attention to detail and balance. an interesting question would be, what does it take to become a successful entrepreneur? moreover, what does a successful entrepreneur look like? Well, like Bill Gates maybe, but watch out for this young lady! 6 studenten origin - universiteit leiden You were quite young when you started with sirius. how did you get the idea about starting up this company? After my graduation in Physics at the University of Mumbai, I knew I did not wanted to go into the field of research. Next, I also knew that I do not like to work under a authority. However, I could not make up my mind what to do. So, I started working in a company and after 4 years of experience of working in different companies I had the experience and confidence to start up my own company. However, I really like to be around people. So, I started up Sirius Interactive together with two of my friends with whom I worked together in the company where I began as a Scientific Editor. During this three year period at the company I learned besides editing of scientific papers also other competences among which are, human resource management, recruitment, accounting and more. Because I did not wanted to waste my time when I was starting up the company Sirius Interactive, my team and I decided to exploit the existing knowledge rather than to start from scratch and we hired a consultant for providing us with the knowledge which is needed for starting up this business. after your graduation as a master of sciences in Physics, will you continue working at sirius interactive? I do not make a distinction between my work and my private life. My work has to be my passion and has to ‘i am really passionate about ‘spreading the word of science’.’ be part of my private life and vice versa. I am always searching for a harmony between my work and private life. More, I like to follow my dreams among which are to write graphic novels, and addressing tough Physics concepts by science communication. More future plans are that I will have the idea to establish an office in Mumbai, according to the growth of the company. Sirius Interactive is in particular founded from an idealistic perspective. I am really passionate about ‘’Spreading the word of Science’’. In more detail, we at Sirius Interactive, focus on making sure that articles from the continent of Asia and other non-western scientific papers will not be withdrawn from the public just because of the language issues. We want to connect Eastern values with the Western practise of Science. Can you combine your company and study in a good manner? ‘’I never thought of it as a mountain’’, says Jaya about whether or not starting up a company is a burden particularly in combining this with a tough study like Astronomy. In Jaya’s perspective, studying disciplines like Astronomy and Physics enabled her to understand and communicate with scientists. More, she quotes her friend Tom Jane: ‘’It is the extremist who defines what normal is’’. While her experience in the industry enabled her to communicate the knowledge from the
‘it is the extremist who defines what normal is.’ academy to the rest of the world. The challenging part of combining Sirius Interactive together with doing a Master of Science in Astronomy is that my customers are the same target group as myself. Most of the customers are PhD and MSc students who have to meet deadlines at the same time as I have to catch deadlines for my Master in Astronomy. Where do you picture yourself in 5 years? Then I will be still a partner of Sirius. Sirius Interactive will be in 5 years an even faster growing company. However, it is difficult to predict what I am going to do in 5 years especially because I am a person who wants to do everything. I know I want to do 1000 things but I do not know how I am going to prioritise them in the coming 5 years. Jaya ramchandani founding editor Crimson Interactive Pvt.
