• Would you like to share any important lessons you have learn in your life?

My colleagues joined me in this new start-up leaving their international lucrative gigs because they said they believed my dream. They still are with me and none of us are paid what other companies are willing to pay and yet they are fighting along.

I learnt it is not money but the dream that drives people, they follow you if they believe you and you share their dreams.

• Kindly brief us about yourself?

Being an engineering Master from IIT Kharagpur , I followed the oft beaten track till I realized I have a different dream- a dream to change the usual dreams of engineering graduates- a dream to make challenges a routine, a dream to plunge into newer vistas not leaving what i learnt but leveraging it and yet setting a new trend!

My camaraderie with my co-workers, the love and belief they reposed on me and the relationship that we build and rebuild incessantly reinforces my zeal as ever. I am redefining BI through Analytics into suggestive solution engineering walking along my comrades in our advents encompassing the entire gamut of the knowledge industry.

• What Are You Doing To Ensure that You Continue to Grow and Develop in your life?

Learning incessantly- learning new technology, new behaviour, new skills, new relations with co-workers and all those who come and share their wares with me, learning new style, language [like music] and humility continuously.

That my friends and colleagues are still with me grinding along and are sharing my pains, pangs and have their shoulders ready for me to lean on. I am proud of the company that I built and keep till now.

Pursue knowledge amelioration with discipline through forming constructive and cooperative help groups, user forums and knowledge sharing conglomerates.

• Can you tell us about a Role Model who Inspires you and why?

My colleagues, who helped me to build a winning team, and our co-founder, Late Mr. Sasanka Sekher Ghosh, who left me alone to talk my walk always however keeping an intent and yet apparently aloof-of-a-look.

Leaving my cosy high flying job to plunge into this "adventure".
