Its been a long long while since I have bothered to write about any of the IndiBlogger meets. Mostly I leave them borderline pissed and can’t be bothered.However,this meet was different.I’m hoping that recording all the things I loved about the meet will act as positive reinforcement. Renie and co. are you listening?Do you care anyways?

The first positive was the location.A nice South Bombay location for a change, not some airport hotel stuck among warehouses and requiring a 2hr commute in grid-locked traffic.I did observe that this time too people unfamiliar with the area had problems reaching the venue.Next time how about publishing the nearest train station and local transport available upto the venue,not just a Google Map?Also heritage buildings are really my thing and I love tasteful renovations and redevelopments.First the TOI building,now this….Do keep them coming. Plus Ave29 was a pretty nice business to observe. Read more of this post

Sudhir Hasija is the chairman of the Rs 1200 crore homegrown handset maker Karbonn Mobiles.Here is a link to the company’s website:http://www.karbonnmobiles.com/.

His story will tell you how a person with few means can get into wholesaling and then into manufacturing.So for all would- be industrialists here is his story:

55 year old Sudhir Hasija, is the son of a government clerk. He left his home in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, after clearing his Class 10 exams. He then moved to Hyderabad where he spent three years in a machine tools company and saved around Rs 3,000. He used this money to set up a business selling TV accessories such as antennas and trolleys in Chennai. It was a difficult struggle. He would climb to the rooftops of buildings bare footed in the scorching heat to install antennas. He used to wash at railway stations and stay in low-cost lodges. However he persisted and managed to built a thriving business that he expanded across other southern cities. Read more of this post
