Vishwanath NG
Author · Technologist · Entrepreneur · Songwriter · Community Leader
I am Vishwanath NG—known as NG in the Netherlands—living between two worlds: India and Europe, personal loss and renewed purpose, professional leadership and creative expression.
My Story
I was born in 1980 in India, originally from Namakkal, Tamil Nadu, and brought up in Bangalore. Having lived in several cities across India, my early life shaped adaptability, resilience, and a deep appreciation for diverse cultures.
I completed my Master of Computer Applications (MCA) in India and built a professional career spanning over 16 years in Information Technology, including leadership roles such as IT Director.
My journey in the Netherlands began on 26 January 2016, when I moved to Eindhoven for IT work. In 2017, I supported my wife in starting a business, marking the beginning of my entrepreneurial journey.
Life changed profoundly in 2022 when I lost my wife. Overnight, I became a single father to my son. Grief, responsibility, and survival reshaped my understanding of strength, love, and purpose.
These experiences are captured in my book MY STORY: BETWEEN TWO WORLDS, a reflection on loss, fatherhood, resilience, and rebuilding life in a country far from home.
Professional Identity
I bring over 16 years of global IT experience, leading digital transformation, service transition, and large-scale technology initiatives across Europe.
Today, I am an entrepreneur running Indian supermarket and real estate (makelaar) ventures in Eindhoven, while also taking selective freelance technology projects.

Community & Leadership
I am the Founder and President of the Indian Center in Netherlands (ICIN), established in 2018 to support cultural identity, inclusion, and belonging.
Creativity & Music
Creativity has always been central to my life. I am a songwriter and music composer, sharing original work through my music project Beatzwave on YouTube and Spotify.
Music, like writing, allows me to express emotion beyond words and connect with people on a deeper level.
Author
My debut book, MY STORY: BETWEEN TWO WORLDS (IN A COUNTRY FAR FROM INDIA — AND THE NETHERLANDS), is a true account of grief, displacement, single fatherhood, and choosing love over despair.
It is not just my story—it is a reflection of resilience, community, and the quiet strength required to rebuild life from the ground up.
