Q1. What is 7Span?


7Span started on 01-Jan-2015, with 3 co-founders Kaushal Gajjar, Harsh Kansagara and Hemratna Bhimani. It’s located in Gandhinagar, Gujarat.

7Span is a branding, web design and development studio with a passionate team of designers, developers & innovators, who can visualize and develop breathtaking graphics, websites and apps for your business.



Q2. What is the reason behind name 7Span?

There were many more reasons:

1] Meaning:
Span = Duration (For indicating long lasting relationship i.e 7 Lives :) )
Span = One of the HTML Tags ( For indicating technical background )
'7' is the most popular and have the most presence in life.
7 Lives, 7 Colors in Rainbow, 7 Elements of Universe, 7 Continentals and many more.

2] Uniqueness:
Due to startup boom, there are many tech companies forming. Most of the names you thought of are already taken and there are chances that if you choose regular terms like 'e', 'i', 'info', 'tech', 'biz', it will match with other brand name and it may confuse the client. 7Span name we searched and there was no presence of this name on web.

3] Domain:
Short and 5 digit domain name was available :) Easy to remember and easy to speak.
Btw. We have both 7Span.com and sevenspan.com ;)

4] Social Availability:
Facebook handle was available. Bad luck that on Twitter it was not. But have to compromise!

5] Brand Identity:
Harsh was confident that '7' can be used to build the unique and easy to remember brand identity.
We're designing the new website and will try to show the meaning in the design ;)
