A business case study on Dhonuk titled 'www.dhonuk.com – Marketing Art in an Emerging Market' written by Prof S Ramesh Kumar, Marketing area, IIM Bangalore and Shamit Bagchi was published by the Richard Ivey School of Business , Western Ontario, Canada (known worldwide for its business case studies) in its case collection.
Primarily it started with this need for artists to showcase their works of art. Another angle was an eclectic course on creativity in arts by Prof Shekar Balasubramaniam at IIM Bangalore that inspired the founders.
We are a distributed team and that in itself is a unique endeavor we are trying to experiment with - an open, social and distributed team without geographical boundaries and brought together by this passion and commitment to arts.
Currently in a proprietorship mode - it originally consisted of a set of IIM Bangalore students who continue to be part time members of the team. Advisory roles are played by IIM Bangalore students.
