Sameer Grover,the Founder & CEO of Crownit -a Local deal discovery and cashback platform - is yet another exemplary of such breed.

"My endeavour in life has always been to create great prop-ups which people can use almost every day and Crownit is a contrivance of this endeavour,"proclaims Sameer. But the initial journey was not as rosy as now. As a novice in the business, Sameer coupled with a
few biggies in the industry and pushed the company to the start line of the big race. His perseverance, diligence and strong support from his family and his employees, helped him to transform Crown IT into a venture, which seized a 6 lakh+ user base and over 10000 listed local merchants in its brace,within a year. While he passionately works towards perfection, he also considers it as a weakness as it often lures him to obsess unnecessarily.
