In addition, Cerebra’s zero landfill policy encourages more efficient e-waste processing practices to avoid environmental damage and has tailored its organization management software to build an online tracking system that monitors every stage of the recycling process. This automated, streamlined, and transparent platform is unique in an industry with limited technology penetration.

Moreover, the company partners with schools and educational institutions to set up fully functional computer laboratories with refurbished computers and laptops in multiple cities. These environment-friendly, innovative strategies ensure growth, enhance brand visibility, increase market share, and bring in sustainable revenues.

"Cerebra’s growing contract base from outside India, expansion to other countries in the region, and the potential influx of new clients have positioned it for accelerated growth," noted Venkatesan.
