The company name is a disaster, and typical of the brains of marketing people. Revolting! Pair it up with Tata's nasty virus

Magic box - Take a sharp turn and there goes your package!

not sure how many remember a custom bike shop in Bangalore called Silver Arrow. Their work on a bullet that was showcased in Bangalore Auto exhibition long time ago did get noticed quite much.
Well, Revolta is a company started by one of the original Silver Arrow Team - Vijay Praveen. I was a partner at Silver Arrow as well and knowing Praveen, he has way more innovative ideas he may bring out soon provided the much sought govt. subsidies are clarified. We'll see how this shapes up.

You are right! I hate all the marketing nonsense, and the management-jargon nonsense. But, they are safe from me: there's nothing I can do about it now, except rant on the internet.

Before retirement, however, the occasional person was invited to speak English if they wanted to talk to me!

But this is a mere detail. Of course, I do like innovation and innovative products, so, Revolta, change the name and go for it!

To be honest, I can't find fault with that - though I can't help adding bean-counters to the list! Aside from the sterling work they do keeping organizations afloat, they often have a dubious talent for being party-poopers too, particularly when there's a really innovative/radical product in the offing - by shooting it down at the nascent stage!

Regarding your approach to English, I can only say - lucky you! During my years in harness, I have had to put up with an unending blizzard of indecipherable syntax from my colleagues! - Germans, Turkish, Yugoslavians & Japanese among several other nationalities! But human nature being what it is, many of those friendships have survived (the onslaught of distance & time) till date!
