I am going on my own towards becoming an entrepreneur. Many a people that know me asked me this question, why do you want to become an entrepreneur when the economy is slow? I certainly did not have a convincing answer as I am far too removed from the macro-economic situation and its relation to what I intend to do. Primarily, my focus is towards incubating niche startups with novel business models and being a rainmaker to technology and telecommunication setups. My belief is that rainmakers will be sought by more and more people now than before.
Prior to this, I was with Aspire Systems heading their marketing function, where I had the opportunity to work with some of the best brains in Product Engineering. I have had multiple stints with various start-ups all through my career handling operations, sales, pre-sales and marketing functions.
My current interests are software services, software products, telecommunication, startups and b2b marketing.
