    He says he and his friend wanted to start a company, because no one was ready to employ them. ๐Ÿ˜

    Good to hear to this happy-go-lucky gentleman. Even though his area of business is not relevant to most people present here, he has kept everyone glued.

    5 children and 4 autorickshaw stands have been named 'Vaatsalya' after being treated at one of their hospitals.

    This is going to be more of an interactive session. We have Mr. Shashikant Chaudhary and Mr. Pandit sitting on couches and he says he is open to questions.

    So, CEans if you have any, share them with us RIGHT NOW.

    I feel Mr. Pandit looks a lot like Mr. Bill Gates from his younger days.

    All the talks today so far have been engaging! Some really great quotes that need to be shared-

    1)In India, even while crossing the street you need to be innovative! The audience-->๐Ÿ˜

    2)Start-ups are like marriages. Earlier, everything seems to go well, but after the honeymoon period is over, you need to be cautious and try to maintain the same chemistry, or better chemistry. So, always be the cautious husband in the marriage, where the wife's behavior is just not predictable, and try to maintain a healthy relationship! Again, the audience--> ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ‘

    Engineers are lucky that they have CAs to look after their funds and the difficult terms like 'dilution, liquidation preference, ESOP Pool etc.'

    Guys, we couldn't cover the entire event because we had no internet connectivity. ๐Ÿ˜”

    Well, AKD, Patty and Biggie were awesome at the event. They networked very well.
    I was bored. But the talks were very interesting.

    Anyways, got to talk with people I really wanted to talk with (this was done behind the scenes, no body knows about it. Not even the CE team ๐Ÿ˜‰)
    They said that my idea has feasibility. But needs more refinement and a lot lot more hard work.


    Finally sorry for not being able to cover the event. #Disheartening.
