Congratulations on the award. Thanks. I am very honoured to get this award. Dataquest has earned a tremendous reputation and respect from the IT community. Thanks for choosing me for this honour.
You have had a long journey. Take us back to the early days of Indian IT.
Right. My journey has been long-about 50+ years of my professional career have gone by as I look back. My first encounter with computers was in 1973. I went to IIT Kanpur-considered to have the largest and best computer setups. But these were early days for computers in India. The centre was in a well-architected building with a musical fountain in front of it. Very impressive. Huge IBM computers occupied the floor-space but the power they harboured was less than today's smartphones. Then I went to the University of Michigan for a second Masters' degree. That's when my second encounter with computers happened. I decided - despite being a mechanical engineer-that I will make my career in computers. In 1977, I came back to India. The early days of computing were very interesting. I took up a job in Bangalore - that's when IT was known as EDP (Electronic Data Processing). I was part of system tool areas-designing bespoke applications. I wanted to be an entrepreneur early on in my life. But before I became one in 1991, I skilled myself well. I worked in systems integration and when I saw the winds of change coming in, I took the plunge. I saw an opportunity in engineering services, and I moved on. In 1991, LPG - Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization - was the fuel of the new path for India.
Did the gears shift massively with the onset of the LPG era?
