A tribute to TiE Bangalore

I have been a TiE Bangalore member for sometime now - to me TiE Stands for

T - Truly, Technology,Talent,Trust, Thinking, Try, Take,
I - Innovative, Ideas, Inspiration, Information, Inventive, Individual, Initiatives,
E - Encouragement, Enterprise, Entrepreneurs, Equality, Ecosystems, Effort, Educate

I have in my own tried to do all the above in some way or other and TiE Bangalore perhaps has benefited from my membership after all and I too have gained inspiration and have been enriched individually from being a TiE Bangalore member.

It is important to find a mentor who is able to guide and help you make true progress as an individual and it does not matter if you learn or teach other people - you end up benefiting only.Age does not really matter - the quality,scalability and merit of idea and the process of building a company and team and then replicating the process are the most important in my opinion - mistakes have to be avoided and learnt from,all emotions put aside,the numbers should justify and show promises,pie should large and growing,aim has to be among the top 5, the pace has to be scorching hot - yet the planning has to be sound and there have to be backups (the what if it fails?), relevant partnerships have to be formed and sustained, setbacks have to be overcome, unfair advantages need to be created, talented people have to be found, understood and encouraged, ..., this is endless and will go on and on and on,.....,on.

I can say the same for the other non profit institutions I am a member of and the fact is there are plenty of opportunities to learn and teach and get enriched in the bargain and yes win win situations have to be created for both/all sides - it is not easy yet the effort is there and better results are actually being seen even in many developing countries.

Comments from website visitors

Yes I have gotten positive feedback for a few ideas presented here for your information blog readers - I want comments to be posted directly to my email address and they better really inspire me to do more here you know after all it is not very easy to sell ideas,concepts,imagination, vision,growth,get real savings, find new business opportunities and spread positive news in general with all people to make a difference - yes it is a lonely path and sometimes it is that single line of encouragement that does the trick.

Think about what a person can do and take responsibility for the same - once people know you are responsible you have the power to change the world with your ideas - I promised myself I am going to try and do something about the power industry in India and I am actually going to do something for a 1000 MW col-fired thermal power plant in AP,India.Learn whatever you can identify the technology to be used to make a real difference to the bottomline of your client and get in touch with the tech providers - approach the buyer identified and then prove yourself literally.The earning will follow and yes a difference will be created in due course of time.
