The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has spurred startups to create interconnected devices that enhance convenience and efficiency in various aspects of daily life. Energy efficiency and sustainability are also paramount, prompting startups to focus on developing energy-efficient components and eco-friendly manufacturing processes.
Additionally, artificial intelligence and machine learning have become integral to electronics startups, enabling the creation of smart devices capable of adapting and learning from user behavior. However, amidst these trends, electronics startups face significant challenges. The ever-shortening product lifecycles require swift development and commercialization, putting pressure on startups to streamline their processes. Moreover, issues such as intellectual property protection, supply chain disruptions, and the high cost of research and development pose hurdles to market entry and growth.
Established in 2017, Leksa Lighting swiftly emerged as a leading solution provider for challenges within the electronics industry. Their strategic methodologies and unwavering commitment enable them to deftly navigate the breakneck pace of innovation, ensuring that their offerings remain at the forefront of the field.

Leksa's journey is a testament to its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and its contribution to the betterment of both the lighting industry and the community it serves.
Leksa Lighting encountered a series of challenges during its initial phase. The company faced a significant threat from Chinese competitors due to limited imports, although import duties provided a slight advantage. However, the main challenges lay within India, primarily related to the scarcity of semiconductors and the need for enhanced supply chain management due to infrastructure limitations.
A substantial portion of raw materials still needed to be imported from other countries to ensure better product quality. The specialized nature of their lighting segment posed another hurdle, as comprehensive knowledge was lacking in India, with only two universities in India offering high-end lighting training. Educating customers about their products, technology shift to LED concepts, and the intricacies of LED and sensor-based
technologies, and more, proved challenging, requiring walkthroughs, presentations, and extensive engagement efforts. Additionally, pricing posed difficulties as customers aspired for foreign brands, indicating a gap between the 'Make in India' concept and market perceptions. Despite these challenges, Leksa's commitment to innovation and social responsibility reflected in its name, has enabled them to successfully navigate these obstacles and establish itself as a notable player in the niche lighting industry.
