Turning a testing lab into a platform.

Rispri Labs is an accredited environmental and materials testing laboratory. The business existed before me; my job across two stints has been to build what didn't, new verticals, digital infrastructure, and a market presence that turns lab diagnostics into full-cycle industrial solutions.

First stint, modernise & expand

• Enabled full-cycle industrial solutions by integrating Rispri Labs with Ram Chemical Enterprises, 50+ customised water-treatment consultancies and plant installations (ETP/STP/RO), each driven by the lab's own diagnostics.
• Established shared research facilities through formal collaborations with academic institutes in Agra, improving Tier 2/3 students' access to lab infrastructure and applied training.
• Co-published research in a high-impact international journal (IF 7.1, Cite Score 16.1), "Sweetener synapse: exploring non-nutritive sweeteners' role in zebrafish glucose homeostasis", validating the lab's capability in advanced biological testing.
• Grew reach 5× through strategic social media, educational content, and academic engagement, positioning Rispri as a regional thought leader in environmental testing and compliance.

Second stint, new revenue verticals

• Closed ETP/STP plant orders (50-200 KLD) for hospitals; drafted the project proposals and process flow diagrams myself.
• Sourced PAC & Alum manufacturers pan-India, negotiating pricing, MOQs, and supply terms.
• Built the Rasaynx MVP: B2B discovery for chemical suppliers, CDMOs, and a lab marketplace, grounded in research where 56% of surveyed traders cited verified manufacturer discovery as their top pain, and outreach to 2,753 NABL labs surfaced idle capacity as the other side of the marketplace.

What it taught me

How to sell and deliver in an unglamorous, trust-driven industry, where a proposal is won on site visits and technical credibility, not decks. It's the closest thing to customer P&L ownership I've done.
