Dr Natarajan - The Indusrial Queens Maker

This was pending for a long time from me - to write about one of the Best persons in the world - who encourages Woman to Take up the mantle of Owner of their own Enterprise. That why I have named him the Industrial Queens Maker. How many woman entrepreneurs he would have helped in making - must be running in 5 figures already. do you know of anybody other than Dr Natarajan , who has gained a doctorate on his research paper on "Women Entrepreneurship". His work was his life. The post of Jt director, Tamil Nadu Industries Department in`charge of Women Entrepreneurship was the most apt post for him.

IT SME FORUM

About 7 months back a group of Entrepreneurs from Chennai who had a common thread of running their software companies got togehter to form a cohesive group - The IT SME FORUM - as a Strategy to accelerate their individual growth through synergy. Each one of these entrepreneurs are successfully running their software companies fighting individual battles to keep the company up and running, maintain a steady growth rate, increase their customer base, etc. Running a company in India is not a easy task - it is literally getting pulled in thousands of direction and believe me - A business leader is supposed to concentrate only on Growth - Marketing - Sales. But I have found that typically in the Indian environ, we get pulled into operations and managing to spend some time for the most crucial aspect of the business. This gave rise to the idea - why not have a platform to share the best practices, to learn how to tackle problems, get a better voice and get a big bandwidth in terms of out rea
