It has been long since I posted on VW. I had a good trip to USA and the level of activity on both the coasts is quite manic. In spite of the subprime woes I doubt that a recession is on the horizon anytime soon.
On a personal note it looks like that I will be getting together with three young entrepreneurs in Delhi and founding a company soon. Expect to hear a bit more over the next month.
Unfortunately for the rest of 2007 it will leave me no bandwidth to advise entrepreneurial companies. With those who have already established contact and would benefit from a brief interaction I will try and do that but will not have time for any new interactions. I will also till August 2008 not invest in any startups other than the one I found.
Initially startups , I believe, require intense focus with few distractions.
I will continue to read VW with great interest but the frequency of my posts/comments will be quite low ( I can see some people heaving a huge sigh of relief )
For our startup to succeed we will need a lot of support and we look forward to getting that from the VW community.

all the best for a new journey!!
I agree, this subprime thing is just a “bear” thing which is to say anythign can be given a negative spin. All such stories which are coming up in media were always there. Its just a matter of timing, which is quite similar to what we had in last year around July when some stocks had gone down by as much as 30%.
All the best of Indian ventures. Its definitely very exciting to read activity going on in India. I pray for all startups to grow big enuf and then you hire me for consulting 🙂
Jai hind!
Have been a lurker on the blog for a while and have enjoyed your insights. Best in your new endeavor. Watching start-ups emerge in India – full of new ideas, and approaches – is absolutely exciting. I suppose its natural subsequent to the offshoring boom, but its still something to see. Looking forward to hearing more about your venture in the coming months.

Hi Sanjay,
Best wishes for your new venture.
I have always liked your posts and comments on VW.
I wanted to get in touch with you after reading your INVESTMENT PLAY post.
I believe there is huge untapped potential in the market and I am working on something on the similar lines.
I am currently running a vertical of investments business for a large bank but will be starting on my own very soon.
Would like to touch base with you on this. Please suggest.
Cheers,
