Aspire to become a pioneering hub for video-first innovation and technologies
NETSTAIRS.COM, INC came to formation back in March 2000. The company’s vision was to become a pioneering hub for video-first innovation and technologies.

They built interactive TV and visually 3D corridors serving the Tobacco, Beverage, and Alcoholic drinks. They helped to launch and promote household name brands namely Pepsi, Hilton, Avon, L’oReal and other leading ad agencies.

The biggest factor in his success has been tapping from within the power of “Higher Dimension”. His parents enabled him to experiment with knowledge. All his life he has been seeking knowledge as its “Absolute Value”. He learned that as a human being an integrated set of complex energies, frequencies, and wave, he had to strive for the highest mountain he could climb. As he grew older, my competitive nature transformed into collaborative and educational settings. He shares values both intrinsically and external with his team. With all the past philosophy, histories, and religious script studies, he chose ISKCON.
“In 1976, I became a devotee. Hence with the love of KRSNA that lives as super soul from within and reaching out to scripts such as Zohar, Bhagavat Gita, I shower my mind seeking spiritual guidance and rejuvenation while elevating own presence with the Zoroastrian roots following the good mantra of ”Good Words, Good Thoughts, and Good Deeds” hence removing all negative energies around me and only associate with those whom we share higher dimensions of life while bringing the best out of those whom we associate. That intrinsic feeling of that makes my team happy is the sweet taste of success I offer to my creator”, Ahmad sums up.
