Founded in 2014, Nucleus.Vision has made great inroads in the Indian retail market with this new technology, an Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchain (BC) based customer identification platform – ION which is being implemented for the first time in India. NV has already on boarded marquee retail clients such as Tata Croma, Shoppers Stop, Future Group, Bestselller, Globus and several others on pilot projects.
