In order to avoid rush
at business establishments and maintain social distancing, a Delhi based tech start-up, MagiQ Ventures has
launched a unique Queue Management Application ‘MagiQ’. The application helps
create a virtual queue (line) and allows customers to join the same. The
application can be utilized by hospitals in outdoor patient management, banks,
barbershops and salons, liquor stores, pharmacy, grocery stores and many other
such places. The application is currently available for android users as well
as for iOS users.

problem of COVID-19, the major problem being faced by any business establishment
is managing unnecessary crowd at the shop. MagiQ application will act as a
virtual assistant and help in managing the queue for the customers in order to
maintain social distancing and serve them without putting anyone at risk.

business establishments can see the entire queue and change their speed or
manage the queue by pausing the joining of additional customers for the day,

accordingly.

conceptualized by Mr. Krishan Sanghi a seasoned business manager,
serial entrepreneur and management consultant and Mr. Akhil Gupta, Entrepreneurial-spirited,
