India Shining to be shown in Business School
September 29, 2007
I received the email below from Chander Dhawan about the "India Shining" youtube video (below), which now been watched almost 4,000 times. Thank you Chander Dhawan and best of luck with your trip to India!
I enjoyed your video "India Shining" that you put up on Youtube after your visit to India. It was very realistic and captured quite succinctly the key characteristics of India today from a western MBA graduate's point of view.In fact, I am going to use your video in a presentation that I have been asked to give to the students and alumni of Rotman School of Business, University of Toronto. I felt that your video will portray a perspective that is not biased like mine because I was born in India, graduated from the IIT system, moved to Toronto in 1968 and have lived here since then.
By the way, I am returning to India this winter, though temporarily, to help set up a collaborative Industry-Academic Partnership in Wireless and Mobile Computing - we would set up eight Centers of Excellence in collaboration with MIT, Stanford, UCLA, UBC,CMU (Carnegie Melon)and IITs. I want to ensure that the West does not sleep but helps India succeed in demonstrating that progress through free economic reforms in a democratic pluralistic society is the best hope for many countries who are still strugling to figure out a strategy for their people. In this, the world will succeed. You can find out more about me from my website .
Thanks and cheers
Chander Dhawan
