MIT AITI (Accelerating Information Technology Innovation) conducted its Mobile Technology based Incubator platform in India in July 2012. The MIT AITI India Summer 2012 program was held in association with Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay.
As a part of the Speaker Series, I had the honor of interaction with the creative young entrepreneurs. They had identified interesting needs and conceived strong product offerings. I was happy to share my enterprise mobility and sales experiences and insights with the young turks.
