Veeda CR sees its key attribute as its uncompromising commitment to quality and it will use the recognised expertise of its European personnel to help train its research professionals in India.

Maurice Cross, a Director of Veeda CR's said "our marketing team was searching for an icon that represented the power, strength and integrity of Veeda and was also indigenous to the Indian sub continent. Our research gave us a number of interesting alternatives but the dignity and overwhelming presence of the Bengal Tiger fit the bill perfectly. When we saw the photograph it simply swept us away, both our UK and Indian colleagues were unanimous in their enthusiasm for it. We understand Veeda means "knowledge" and our tiger exudes knowledge and wisdom from every pore. It is a wonderful symbol of both India and Veeda CR."
