EXPRESSbase Systems is a software product (SaaS) startup first incorporated in India in Oct 2016 and started its operations from the NASSCOM 10,000 Startups Warehouse - Kochi. Later we moved into the Integrated Startup Complex - Kochi.

EXPRESSbase was part of NASSCOM's Innotrek 2018, a week-long, invite-only delegation of select Indian startups who visit Silicon Valley to learn, connect and get inspired by the world's oldest and most successful technology ecosystem.

We were selected by Flat6Labs, a leading startup accelerator in the MENA for their Cycle 2 Acceleration program (early 2019) in Bahrain. This program was funded by Tamkeen, a public authority by the Government of Bahrain.

EXPRESSbase also got selected into the prestigious Start-Up Chile program (Seed Generation 21), Latin America's biggest accelerator, and funded by CORFO, the agency of the Government of Chile, under the Ministry of Economy, Development and Tourism in charge of supporting entrepreneurship & innovation.

We firmly believe people build and shape great companies and products. We have the right mix of young and experienced professionals in our energetic team who are excited to take on huge challenges.

We value our customer's effort, time and money. Our mission is to reduce the time and effort small to medium enterprises spend on business automation. Change is inevitable but this is an era of "supersonic" disruptions. To survive, SME need rapidly evolving software and conventional modes of application development simply doesn't make sense. We are passionately building next-gen rapid application development tools on the cloud for SME who have frequent changes in processes and workflows, thanks to their rapid growth or market disruptions.
