CEans,

Those who are not aware of CE Small Talk, please take a look here -> #-Link-Snipped-#

Every month (well, almost!) we try to publish Small Talks with people related to engineering who have changed the world. So far, we have managed to gather super-great people associated with engineering in our Small Talk section.

Tell us who you'd like to see in Small Talk. We'll try our best to get in touch with them and request them for Small Talks.

It would be just awesome if you could help us get in touch with them!

    I am in touch with Mr. Godbole. He said he's too lazy to respond through email 😉 . Maybe Mayur can go to his residence in Mumbai to interview him.

    Mayur?


    For Sudha Murthy, I'll definitely try. Can someone from Infosys arrange for the contact?

    Well, our experience with Chetan Bhagat was bad. If you have time, go through this post I wrote on my blog : - #-Link-Snipped-#

    We will not interview Chetan Bhagat on CE.

    Can it be possible to have a small talk with any successful Indian lady? I am sure it will benefit lot of female CEans over here. 😀

    Well Good talks with them but talk with "Madam Jessica Arnold" was more about Outlook 2007 rather than her success story and "Madam Celeste Baine" is not an Indian as I asked for specifically in my last post. Good talks. Anyways I got my answer of question asked. Thanks.

    As I said, Dr. Kalam was approached but we didn't receive any response. Will surely try again.

    I'm targeting people who remained away from the public while making our life easier and better.

    We surely have great interviews lined up! Stay tuned

    I had been hunting the engineers who have been hiding behind the scenes and running the world. Lot of cool Small Talks are lined up. Stay tuned 😀
