Entrepreneurial Impact

Jha’s relentless pursuit of excellence, innovation, and strategic vision has firmly established Morphedo in the global deep-tech ecosystem. Her work drives technological advancements and creates meaningful societal impact by improving healthcare, enhancing national security, and providing sustainable construction solutions.

Her entrepreneurial journey began while she was pursuing her MBA at the Birla Institute of Management Technology (BIMTECH). As a student, Jha launched Morphedo as a business-to-consumer (B2C) 3D printing service that provided customized gifts.

Over the past nine years, Jha has demonstrated remarkable adaptability by pivoting Morphedo multiple times to meet market demands. She transitioned the company from a B2C service provider to a business-to-business (B2B) 3D printing firm. Eventually, she led its evolution into a deep-tech startup focused on advanced product innovations in aerospace and defense, medical devices engineering, Internet of Things (IoT), and embedded systems.

Jha’s leadership has transformed Morphedo into a deep-tech powerhouse offering various innovative solutions. In aerospace and defense, Morphedo has developed critical technologies that bolster national security, such as air data probes for fighter aircraft and high-altitude devices for soldiers.

Morphedo has pioneered noninvasive diagnostic tools, advanced medical devices, and AI-driven patient monitoring systems that improve patient outcomes in the healthcare sector. The company also excels in IoT and embedded systems. It has developed solutions that connect devices for industrial automation, home automation, and cybersecurity.

Alongside Morphedo, Jha co-founded Constum, a company that has revolutionized the construction sector with its 3D concrete-printing technology. Constum offers affordable, sustainable, and rapid construction solutions for housing, defense shelters, and other critical infrastructure. This innovation is particularly impactful in high-altitude and disaster-prone regions where time and cost efficiency are crucial. Constum’s work aligns with Jha’s broader vision of creating innovative, technology-driven solutions that impact society.

Jha’s entrepreneurial ventures have created several job opportunities across multiple engineering disciplines, including aerospace, mechanical, electronic, civil, and medical engineering. This job creation, combined with Morphedo’s focus on development of deep tech, has built a skilled workforce capable of tackling challenging technical problems.

Looking ahead, Jha’s vision for Morphedo is ambitious. By 2030, the company aims to expand to a team of 1,000 professionals, manage over 500 concurrent projects, and establish a global presence with offices in key markets such as the U.S., U.K., Germany, Singapore, and Israel. With a target turnover of 1,000 crore, Morphedo aspires to global recognition for its deep-tech product development.
