Product Launches
Taking the legacy of their flagship products, Sameer and his
team are all set to launch CEIPAL VMS this year. CEIPAL

businesses. Prior to CEIPAL, Sameer established Avani
Technology Solutions Inc., which was recognized for its
growth and secured the place on the Inc. 5000 list every
year since 2014. Similarly, it appeared on the Deloitte
Technology Fast 500 list for the last two years in a row. In
2015, Sameer founded CEIPAL with the mission to
transform the conventional HR space.

enough for an HR transformation. There is a great need of a
digital mindset for a successful transformation. Such
mindset is useful across the whole organization from the
newly appointed employees, present workforce, to the
people at C-level. Therefore, at CEIPAL, Sameer strives to
serve clients with the best digital solutions developed by his
dedicated support and onboarding teams. For instance,

that in a world that’s digitizing at an extremely fast pace,
the current speed of HR digitization is not adequate.
Furthermore, he draws attention to the fact that employee
and company engagement has a top priority in the talent
acquisition and employee management. Therefore, HR
organizations need to start with advance tech-oriented ideas
that produce high impact and low efforts while focusing on
the employees and end-users. Finally, when asked about the
key HR Tech trends for this year, Sameer explained that the
impact of technologies on HR will be a vital trend because
it will help in shaping the advanced human resource
solutions.
