Facts About Thrillophilia


Date Started: May 2009
Thrillophilia Cofounders: Abhishek Daga & Chitra Gurnani
How far have they reached: They organize trips to 14 destinations, have their own team of adventure experts, trainers, trip co-coordinators, best in class equipments and associations with various professionals across the country.


They are passionate about adventure. On their weekend adventure breaks, the cofounders of Thrillophilia realized a potential business opportunity in this field and jumped into it.

PROBLEMS THEY FACED



1)Initially their parents were not very convinced as no one in our families is into business. Everybody is very qualified and into high designations in the service industry.

2)However when they saw the passion in them to do something of their own, they supported them in every way – from moral support, to advice at times to financial support.

3)Money was a big constraint in the beginning. They put in all our savings during our two and half years of job life in Bangalore to start this venture boot strapped and also took some from parents till they found an angel investor.

4)Motivating a team of very well qualified young people to believe in our passion and deliver from a 1 bhk apartment in Bangalore was undoubtedly the most difficult thing.



HOW IS THRILLOPHILIA DIFFERENT?


1)Professionalism
2)Safety measures undertaken
3)Superior quality equipments
4)Expert Instructors

HOW FAR HAVE THEY COME



1)Today Thrillophilia have served close to 90 corporate companies for adventure off sites.

2)Thrillophilia covers various parts of India. This is a significant achievement.

GOALS YET TO ACHIEVE



1)Thrillophilia need to cover various places in and around India which we do not cater right now.


2)Then reaching out to more and more international customers is also on our priority list as that way we will be able to position India strongly on the world map for adventure tourism. 





THEIR INSPIRATIONAL WORDS TO THE YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS

Thrillophilia says:

"Just do it. You got to dive into the water if you want to learn swimming.  Staying out and calculating might just help you to figure out the right time and the right way to make the final jump but you got to make that jump all on your own. If there is passion in you, there is no way stopping then."
