like Suhas Patil, perhaps the first IITian to make it big on his own in Silicon Valley; Arjun Malhotra, co-founder of the HCL Group of companies; Vinod Gupta, founder of InfoUSA and friend of Bill Clinton; and Harish Hande, who won the Magasasay Award last year for his work with solar energy in rural India. The authors have also included the outliers, people one does not usually associate with the IITs, like activist Arvind Kejriwal, SPIC MACAY founder Kiran Seth, and Sam Dalal, who set up Funtime Innovations, the world’s largest supplier of self-created products for magicians.Potential People for CE-Small Talk. ☕ Updating my list.

I believe it is the latter.The_Big_KI wonder what role did IITs play in turning students into entrepreneurs. Or it's just that people who'd have become entrepreneurs anyway just happened to study at IIT?

Can't say. But let us say it is less costly (feasible) to implement an innovation in agriculture than to tie a turban and start farming. 😉The_Big_KI wonder what role did IITs play in turning students into entrepreneurs.
