Koenig is today a successful IT training company serving a global clientele. Apart from being a pioneer in offshore training Koenig has the largest number of IT trainers in the world. Koenig was not always so successful. In November 1993, Koenig was born as an unremarkable training center located in a congested part of Delhi – Patel Nagar. The Indian IT training industry was highly competitive and Koenig struggled to survive. Koenig had its moments of glory but they were short lived and far in between. “It was a challenge to pay the monthly salary bill and we could only survive because of financial support from my father’s company Essen Deinki “– Rohit Aggarwal (Founder & CEO) In short, Koenig was a loss making enterprise. Then came the dotcom boom followed by the bust in 2000-2001 which took down with it many an IT company. Koenig would also have met the same fate but for rapid “downsizing” and an “idea”. “When we were aggressively downsizing I could not ignore the fact that in almost every class we had 1-2 students from Europe. We thought that if we give a training package including hotel, it will be more convenient for the student coming from Europe. We did our calculations and it seemed a win-win for Koenig and European customers.” - Rohit Aggarwal.Koenig is today a successful IT training company serving a global clientele.
