In an insightful discussion with Mobility India, Nikita Kumawat, Managing Director of Brandworks Technologies, shared how the company is shaping India’s electronics manufacturing ecosystem through innovation, sustainability, and inclusion.
From investing in AI-driven IoT solutions and lithium-ion cell technology to building a team where 70% of leadership roles are held by women, Brandworks represents a blend of cutting-edge research and human-driven growth. Its sustainability efforts, including green manufacturing and e-waste recycling, underline a long-term commitment to responsible innovation and industrial progress.
At Brandworks, research and development form the core of its strategy to stay globally competitive. A significant portion of annual revenue is dedicated to developing emerging technologies in IoT, AI-powered devices, and sustainable lithium-ion solutions. Through collaborations with academic institutions and design houses, the company accelerates innovation cycles, enabling the launch of advanced products like AI surveillance systems.
A recent MoU with MeitY further strengthens Brandworks’ role in driving India’s ambition to become a global electronics manufacturing hub, reflecting its dedication to developing homegrown, high-impact technologies.
Navigating a fast-changing electronics market requires adaptability. Brandworks meets this challenge through a design thinking approach and DFMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly) principles, which help speed up prototyping, improve efficiency, and reduce production costs. By creating a localized supplier network and proprietary tools, the company has built a resilient, responsive, and efficient supply chain.
Brandworks’ success is deeply rooted in its people. Through structured skill development programs, mentorship initiatives, and a culture of equality, the company has achieved a remarkable milestone. Women make up 70% of its supervisory and managerial workforce. This gender diversity brings fresh perspectives, precision, and collaboration to every project, reinforcing Brandworks’ belief that innovation thrives in an inclusive environment.
With the rapid growth of IoT-enabled devices and connected technologies, Brandworks is at the forefront of developing AI surveillance systems and energy-optimized smart devices. Partnerships with global IC providers and independent design houses (IDHs) allow the company to deliver reliable ODM solutions that combine international standards with local market needs. This capability positions Brandworks as a preferred partner for brands looking to scale in the connected electronics space.
Sustainability guides every stage of Brandworks’ operations. The company follows green manufacturing practices, ensures RoHS compliance, and incorporates renewable energy in its facilities. Ongoing research in lithium-ion and solid-state technologies integrates eco-friendly practices, minimizes waste, and reduces import dependency. These initiatives reflect Brandworks’ dedication to fostering a self-reliant and sustainable manufacturing ecosystem under the Make in India vision.
India is on the path to becoming a global leader in electronics manufacturing, and Brandworks is determined to help lead that transformation. By 2030, the company plans to set up a million-unit-per-month battery production facility and advance R&D in solid-state battery technology. With innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity at its core, Brandworks is not just manufacturing products; it is shaping the future of technology.
