  3. The seed of the logo design was planted by our very own Zoomers — Sudhanva and Aruna. Oh, in case you’re wondering, everyone working at INSZoom is proudly called a ‘Zoomer!’ Both wanted a new logo for an upcoming product and reached out to Umesh Vaidyamath, CEO and Founder, INSZoom.com, Inc. with this request.
