Our Story

During the summer of 2013, an accidental chance encounter brought Rupak and Norman together at UC San Diego. In addition to being coworking scientists, the pair worked on a commercially successful startup together, while still at university. The duo then went off on their own career paths, only to team up once again to start OmniSync, through a unique opportunity presented by San Diego VC-backed Startup Studio, Launch Factory. Given their personal backgrounds and passion for solving complex problems, the pair envision OmniSync to be the worldwide central hub, where entities facing difficult problems, such as governments, meet innovation-driven nontraditional solution providers, such as tech and life science startups.
