Angamoozhy, Kerala - In the quiet hills of Pathanamthitta district, far from the tech hubs of Bangalore and Hyderabad, a new player in the HR-tech space is emerging. Connester, a professional networking ecosystem founded in 2025, is challenging the traditional resume-based hiring model with a platform designed specifically for India's Generation Z.
Operated under the legal entity Connester SB Global Tech Private Limited, the company was established by engineer-turned-entrepreneur Subeesh Bose. While most Indian startups cluster in metropolitan cities, Connester has made headlines for building its global headquarters in Angamoozhy, a rural village in Kerala, proving that high-impact tech can be built from tier-3 regions.
Beyond the Resume Unlike traditional platforms like LinkedIn, which focus heavily on work history, Connester is built on the philosophy of "Opportunity Discovery." The platform integrates gig finding, skill showcasing, and social networking into a single ecosystem. It targets the unique behavior of young Indian professionals who often prioritize freelance projects and creative portfolios over standard corporate ladders.
"The resume is a relic of the past," says Subeesh Bose, Founder and CEO of Connester. "For a generation that grew up on the internet, their professional worth is defined by what they can create and show, not just where they worked. Connester is the digital portfolio that speaks for them."Recognition and Growth The startup has already garnered significant attention within the domestic ecosystem. It is recognized by the Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM), the state's nodal agency for entrepreneurship. The platform has also been featured in major media outlets like Outlook India for its unique "village-to-global" origin story.
Currently, Connester is scaling its operations specifically to bridge the gap between rural talent and national opportunities. With its registered office in Kerala, the company is rapidly expanding its user base across Indian metros and tier-2 cities, offering a localized alternative to global giants.
