Investors in Visakhapatnam

Interests: 1. Market position & competitive advantage - • Strong niche focus: Does the consultancy specialize in a high-demand area (Example - cloud-based PMS, AI-driven revenue management, cybersecurity for hotels) • Differentiation: Unique IP (Example - proprietary hotel analytics software) vs. generic IT services. • Example of a liked business: Oracle Hospitality (Opera PMS) – Dominates high-end hotel tech with deep integrations. • Disliked business: Undifferentiated "me-too" IT support firms with no specialized hotel expertise. 2. Recurring revenue model. • High MRR/ARR: SaaS-based solutions (Example - hotel CRM, channel managers) are preferable over one-time project work. • Example: Cloudbeds (PMS + revenue tools with subscription pricing). • Disliked: Custom development shops reliant on irregular project-based income. 3. Customer stickiness & retention. • High switching costs: Does the tech integrate deeply with hotel operations (Example - PMS integrations with booking engines) • Example: Amadeus Hospitality (mission-critical systems for large chains). • Disliked: Consultancies with no long-term contracts or dependency on commoditized services. 4. Scalability & tech stack. • Cloud-Native > On-Premise: Businesses leveraging AWS/Azure for scalability. • Example: Duetto (Revenue Strategy Platform) – Scalable cloud-based pricing engine. • Disliked: Legacy on-premise solutions requiring heavy customization. 5. Financial Health & Margins. • Healthy EBITDA (20%+): Recurring revenue businesses typically have better margins. • Example: SiteMinder (Channel Manager) – High-margin SaaS model. • Disliked: Low-margin "body shop" consultancies with high labor dependency. 6. Growth Potential. • Expansion into adjacent verticals: Can the business move into cruise lines, resorts, or short-term rentals? • Example: Sabre Hospitality (expanding beyond hotels to travel tech). • Disliked: Hyper-local IT firms with no expansion strategy. 7. Regulatory & compliance expertise. • GDPR/PCI-DSS Compliance: Critical for handling hotel guest data. • Example: Protel (PMS with strong compliance focus). • Disliked: Firms lacking certifications or security audits. 8. Management team & culture. • Industry Veterans > General IT Teams: Founders with hotel operations experience add credibility. • Example: StayNTouch (founded by ex-hoteliers, acquired by Cloudbeds). • Disliked: Outsourced dev teams with no hospitality domain knowledge.
