In the small city of Cooch Behar in Bengal, a world away from start-up hotspots like California’s Sand Hill Road or Bangalore’s HSR Layout, Tapan Barman grew up watching his mother run orphanages.
Today, Barman is the co-founder and CEO of Mihup, a more versatile, multifaceted and distinctly Indian version of Alexa or Siri, with options in vernacular languages.
