Journey from Sea to a Multimillion-Dollar Software Business | Ajay Tewari | smartData | PortToPort

smartData's Co-Founder and Global CEO, Ajay Tewari, was recently featured on PortToPort a platform dedicated to stories from the maritime and entrepreneurial world in a compelling conversation that traces his journey from Merchant Navy Officer to tech entrepreneur.

Ajay spent 11 years at sea, traveling across 60+ countries and rising to the rank of Chief Officer, before co-founding smartData Enterprises in 1999. In this feature, he opens up about what that life at sea truly taught him discipline, cross-cultural leadership, and an early exposure to multimillion-dollar global businesses and how those very lessons became the foundation for building smartData into a 1,000+ person global IT consultancy.

The conversation covers his early entrepreneurial leap with no formal tech background, the philosophy of surrounding yourself with the right people, and what it takes to sustain a technology business across 25+ years. It's a rare, unfiltered look at the mindset behind one of India's most quietly successful software companies.
