Priyadarshi Pany, Founder, Managing Director & CEO of CSM Technologies, has been honoured with the prestigious ‘Times Icons of Odisha 2026’ Award by The Times of India for his contribution to digital transformation and technology innovation.
The award was presented at the Times Icons of Odisha 2026 ceremony held on September 21, 2026, at Mayfair Convention, Bhubaneswar. Priyadarshi Pany received the award from the Hon’ble Governor of Odisha, Dr. Hari Babu Kambhampati, marking a significant moment of recognition for his leadership and contribution to Odisha’s technology landscape.
The recognition comes at a landmark moment in CSM Technologies’ journey. In July 2026, CSM Technologies became the first Odisha-born technology company to be listed on the mainboards of both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), following the successful completion of its Initial Public Offering (IPO).
The public listing marked a significant milestone in CSM Technologies’ journey from its roots in Bhubaneswar to becoming a technology company with a growing national and international presence. Over nearly three decades, CSM has focused on leveraging technology and innovation to address complex governance and enterprise challenges and enable digital transformation.
The ‘Times Icons of Odisha 2026’ recognition further adds to a landmark year for CSM Technologies and acknowledges its continued contribution to the technology ecosystem. The honour also celebrates the collective efforts of the CSM family, whose commitment to innovation, technology and transformation has been central to the organisation’s journey.
For CSM Technologies, the recognition is a proud moment that reflects its Odisha roots, its technology-led journey and its vision of driving transformation through innovation.
