While these will continue to be important themes, geographical expansion will also be a key focus area this year. We will be present in 30 cities by the end of 2015," Urban Ladder co-founder and CEO Ashish Goel said.
The firm's COO and co-founder Rajiv Srivatsa said Urban Ladder is investing heavily in technology to introduce world class tech innovations that will massively simplify furniture shopping.
