Here’s my latest Forbes Column: The Smartest Unknown Indian Entrepreneur.
What is touching, is that the entrepreneur profiled here is also infinitely humble, embarrassed by this sort of attention from the media. In my private exchange with him, I have expressed my deepest respect, and the reason I want to feature this story repeatedly is that I truly think it is a case study worth emulating.
So Indian entrepreneurs, please pay attention to this story. There are many lessons buried in it.

^^Srinivas- I cdn’t find any patents on USPTO or espacenet.
On a related note, i doubt if they would have any IP (patents).
Can someone tell me how many patents ZOHO has?
Sridhar is truly a remarkable human being and a great Indian.

Sarmana, “India shining” is one thing but to say thing like “Zoho does everything that you would do with Microsoft Office” is downright irresponsible and is the kind of stuff that makes people snigger at Indians.
Zoho is a remarkable product and deserves better than a fluffy story.
I really admire this guy! When I used Zoho for first time, I was impressed by the spreadsheets and documents (over Google) so tried to find more information about company, first of all I could not believe that its a Indian company. Zoho has great products! My recent attraction had been Zoho projects which I think is really simple yet effective way to manage the projects… Thanks for writing about him and of-course the interview transcript on your website!
