Managing in the Tropical Zone: Deal flow in India and not enough VC in general
http://tropicalmanager.blogspot.com/2006/12/deal-flow-in-india-and-not-enough-vc-in.html
Managing in the Tropical Zone. Deepak Shenoy on what it takes to be in the Indian Technology sector. Thursday, December 07, 2006. Deal flow in India and not enough VC in general. Typical deal flow involves a new investor buying out an existing one as part of his investment. If I'm an Angel investor in a company that gets funded by a big VC, the VC will plough a part of the money to buy some of my stock, at the same valuation. It can also be a fear psychosis, thinking "Why's this guy exiting? Having said ...

Managing in the Tropical Zone: A μMoney update: Online photos and DVD rentals
http://tropicalmanager.blogspot.com/2006/12/money-update-online-photos-and-dvd.html
Managing in the Tropical Zone. Deepak Shenoy on what it takes to be in the Indian Technology sector. Monday, December 04, 2006. A μMoney update: Online photos and DVD rentals. From my last post about μMoney I've had some further ideas in two areas: Online photo printing and DVD rentals. For the online photo printing, someone suggested that people who don't have access to photo printers may send their photos using MMS to a printer who can print/deliver/get paid. What do you think?

Managing in the Tropical Zone: VC and Founder Compensation are so totally different
http://tropicalmanager.blogspot.com/2007/10/vc-and-founder-compensation-are-so.html
Managing in the Tropical Zone. Deepak Shenoy on what it takes to be in the Indian Technology sector. Monday, October 01, 2007. VC and Founder Compensation are so totally different. Sramana Mitra has an excellent post about how skewed compensation is at startups. As for the compensations, General Partners at Venture Firms make anywhere between $1 Million to $3 Million a year without counting performance incentives. The carry is all upside. 2) VC managers on the other hand have "carry" as an unrequired bon...

Managing in the Tropical Zone: Where angels fear to tread
http://tropicalmanager.blogspot.com/2007/02/where-angels-fear-to-tread.html
Managing in the Tropical Zone. Deepak Shenoy on what it takes to be in the Indian Technology sector. Tuesday, February 27, 2007. Where angels fear to tread. If you're reading my blog post by post, I will sound like a broken record about this, but bear with me please. I'd complained about the general lack of deal flow and VC issues here. Because the typical amounts such ideas need are between 10 and 50 lakhs. Why that much? You might think: Ok, why not go to a VC directly? VCs have $20-100 million dollar ...

The blog about arbitrary things that catch my attention. Sunday, November 30, 2008. I found the headquarters of the Lashkar-e-Toiba! It's here, as per wikimapia. And that, on a bigger scale. I'm just kidding. But our army must have better resolution, no? There's a runway close by, a hospital that looks like a camp and all. Posted by Deepak Shenoy at 11:27 AM. Bus Naam Hi Kaafi Hai?

The Unknown Indian: IIPM on two months notice
http://theunknownindian.blogspot.com/2006/12/iipm-on-two-months-notice.html
The blog about arbitrary things that catch my attention. Friday, December 15, 2006. IIPM on two months notice. Yes, beating this silly institution to death, but it seems that my earlier report. That IIPM's premises was sealed has an addendum. It has been given two month's notice. To "vacate its premises". And they've said they'll leave in two weeks, which, if I get the dates right, would have been December 1 or so. Even if they haven't yet left, they have till January 17, 2007. Bus Naam Hi Kaafi Hai?

The Unknown Indian: Kill all the stray dogs
http://theunknownindian.blogspot.com/2007/01/kill-all-stray-dogs.html
The blog about arbitrary things that catch my attention. Thursday, January 18, 2007. Kill all the stray dogs. I'm incensed that stray dogs have killed a child. In Bangalore. A pack of 15 dogs attacked and killed an 8 year old girl on Jan 5. An in Chandigarh, a 55 year old man was killed by strays. Oh there are animal lover organisations that don't like it one little bit. How can you kill dogs, they say. They're so lovable! Just yesterday Mr. Spots appeared. What do I hear you say? The touted cure is to s...
