In an exclusive interview with Business North East (BNE), businessman Pawan Kumar Agarwal shared, "I come from a tea estate family, and I faced many struggles to start a tech business in Assam. Datamation was founded in 1987, at a time when Guwahati and Assam had limited IT development. I initially started with a computer education institute. It’s been 35 years of struggle in this sector. Later, I ventured into the hotel business with Olive Garden, located on GS Road, Ganeshguri."
"The award I received is an honour, and I am grateful that people nationwide are recognizing Datamation. The last financial year (2024-25) saw a turnover of nearly 100 crores, and this year, we aim to increase it by 20%," he further said
