Why Mandala?

 

The mandala had deep roots in Hindu and Buddhist religious and spiritual traditions. A basic interpretation of a mandala is that of a symbol, comprised of geometric patterns representing a microcosm of a universe that is manifold, complex and constantly evolving. Its core is stable and eternal, representing a higher truth that binds the universe and is ultimately attainable by a journey within. We believe that the mandala is a good metaphor for the technology and telecoms industries, with a core DNA that drives ripples of innovation across the world, disrupting and enhancing the worlds adjacent. As a firm, we will seek to analyze these patterns and trends, with a view to always finding the “essence” and delivering valuable insights for our customers.
