A proprietary system called v Code guarantees clarity and seamless

Virtual Soft has developed a world-class Enterprise Communication
Platform called vReach that utilizes existing corporate computing and
communications infrastructure to make real-time business meeting and

development, social media - web and telemarketing to create customized
channel training & development, sales enablement and customer
engagement programs mainly for Business to Business brands, in the
Technology space.
In the year under Review, we continued making progress on both the
Digital Demand Generation and lelecom initiatives that were launched in
the past few years
In Demand Generation, we continued to strengthen the strategic
partnership for India and APAC with 6Connex Inc. (www.6Connex.com) - a
California based global leader in Virtual Experience & Virtual
Destination based business solutions. Supplementing 6Connex's latest
Version 7 Technology/ Platform with our own domain competence,

launched a range of next generation Virtual Experience based events for

the India & APAC level.
The Telecom Division launched global roaming solutions and services
under the "Roam1" brand (www.roam1.com), in FY 2010-11. The global
roaming business portolio that was hived off into a subsidiary Roam 1
Telecom Ltd during FY 13-14, continued to make significant progress in
terms of innovative and unique product introductions and plans as well
gaining market share and acceptance - both from end -customers and
channel partners.
Our key offerings in Roam 1 Telecom Ltd, are based on Global or
Regional (e.g Europe) Single Sim Product or Platform , that contains
multiple IMSI Profiles or local country specific numbers - anywhere
from 3 to 12 in ONE SIM that provides low cost Voice and data services
when the subscriber travels overseas. This SIM provides Free Incoming
in over 60 countries and provides low cost Call Back to India. This is
offered through both prepaid and post-paid plans. The billing is in
real time and is visible instantly on the web which ensures that there
is no room for over billing. The customer gets to retain the card and
can publish the number as his permanent International Number on his
business card and stationary etc. This way every time the customer goes
abroad, he adds talk time on his card which makes repeat business very
easy for us. The Global Single SIM Product is supported by a wide array
of country and continent specific products and plans for voice and
data.
VirtualSoft thus develops, integrates, optimises and deploys the
technologies of the day to provide the infrastructure, application
platforms, SIM cards and Apps needed for rich and enhanced
communications & international roaming services for businesses and
consumers - as well as for creating collaborative virtual business
solutions for sales, customer engagement, training and knowledge
management.
In the year under Review, with an intent to synergise the two divisions
at a corporate level, the C2E3 Initiative was strengthened. C2E3 stands
for Connect Communicate Engage Experientially and Cost - Effectively
and provides a bridge for the Telecom & Roam 1 Division to collaborate
with the Virtual Events and Demand Gen Division in technology & product
development, marketing and large partner and account development. This
will create unique cross developed product offerings in the enhanced
communications and collaboration space - including web and video
conferencing, cloud telephony, Rich Communication Services (RCS) based
platforms, connected device life-cycle management solutions and will
facilitate more sales yield from our goto market partners and large
enterprise accounts.
With the foundation in Enterprise Broadband solutions, Telecom and
Roaming Solutions and now the C2E2 Initiative - all of which are
scaling up well, the Company now expects significant growth in both
revenues and profitability in the years to come.
