Both these ventures represent the stride which Indian entrepreneurship has taken. But they have not been an overnight success. Many a difficult days and challenges shaped up what today we perceive as successful enterprises. Lets hear the Founders behind these ventures talk, engage and share on what it takes to not give up, what are the critical parameters to succeed and what are the small and big things they did differently. We are lucky to get these gentlemen amidst us on 11th June and its time for you to engage with them.

His considerable experience working with enterprises and enabling them scale is well known, now lets hear him talk in simple terms on Cloud and let him demystify Cloud for us. He has assured us that he will be taking the queries of techies and entrepreneurs on the sidelines of the event too.
