Bangalore: For Devdutt Yellurkar, both the audience and questions were familiar. On a sunny afternoon last Saturday, a small group of entrepreneurs that had gathered at the sparsely furnished office of Sen-Sei Technologies Pvt. Ltd, were quizzing him on what made a startup click. Click here to listen to XITE founder, Jagdish Vasishtha, talk about Infosys, XITE, and life as an entrepreneur Yellurkar, a partner at US venture capital firm Charles River Ventures, had joined Infosys Technologies Ltd, now India’s second largest software exporter, in 1987 when it had just 25 employees. Some years later, he co-founded Yantra Corp., a product firm incubated by Infosys, before leaving it in 1996. The group—XITE, or Ex Infosys Technology Entrepreneurs—had lots to glean from him. It was their third quarterly meeting since the group was formed in January and Yellurkar was on a visit to Bangalore. When they aren’t meeting, members keep in touch through an online forum to exchange views and ideas, and lend each other a helping hand. Back together: Members of XITE, or Ex Infosys Technology Entrepreneurs, at their third quarterly meeting since the group was formed in January. The members also keep in touch through an online forum. Jagadeesh NV/Mint “Suddenly, I discovered that there are many people (from Infosys) starting companies. I thought why not we keep in touch and share ideas,” says Jagdish K. Vasishtha, who started XITE. “Any startup faces the same issues.”

Vasishtha and his colleague Srinivas Seshadri quit Infosys in 2006 to start Injoos Web Solutions Pvt. Ltd, which makes a pay-as-you-use social business software that allows companies to store and mine documents, even scrap notes, created by its employees, on the lines of general social networks such as Facebook. The group currently has some 50 ex-Infoscians. Most of them had quit the information technology (IT) bellwether in the past three years to follow their own dreams, following the example of N.R. Narayana Murthy, who left Patni Computer Systems Ltd and founded Infosys in 1981 together with six others. The story of Murthy founding Infosys with an investment of Rs10,000 borrowed from his wife Sudha is a legend in Indian industry. The firm, now a constituent of the Bombay Stock Exchange’s 30-stock benchmark index, the Sensex, employs at least 100,000 people and reported revenue of Rs21,693 crore in 2008-09. “Once Murthy found the right business model, there was no looking back,” says Yellurkar, who’s not a member of XITE, but is seen by the group as an inspiration. In the early Infosys days, Yellurkar used to market its services in the US from his home before the company opened its first overseas office. “His passion rubbed (off) on us. It was magic.”

Who is the BEST - Infosys, Wipro or TCS?

Hi All.. Lets decide.. Who is the BEST - Infosys, Wipro or TCS? One day, three consultants, one from Wipro, one from Infosys and one from TCS, went out for a walk. "Why don't we prove who is the best among ourselves?" Why not, said the other two. The Infosian said "Let's have a test. Whoever makes this monkey laugh, works for the best firm". Being a pure logical strategist, the person from TCS tried to make the monkey Laugh by telling jokes. The monkey stayed still. As a more practical consultant, the Wipro guy tried to make funny gestures... No good, the monkey stayed put... Now, comes the Infosian. Being the practical guy he was always trained to be, he whispered something into the monkey's ear, and it burst out laughing at him .. The other two were astonished. So the Wipro guy said "OK, let's take another test. Let's make this monkey cry!!" So there they went again, applying the same methods as before. The TCS guy narrated sad stories, the Wipro guy made sad gestures, and they failed again... Then, the Infosian again whispered something into the monkey's ear and oh! It started crying, patting the Infosian's shoulder! The other two just could not believe their eyes! So the tcs guy said "OK, you've won twice. If you can win just this one, we will bow to you. Let's make this monkey run". and he barked at the monkey and ordered him to run. Of course, it stayed where it was.. The Wipro guy, true to his type, pushed and prodded the monkey- still No go. So...here comes Infosian, again, and whispers into the monkey's ear. The Monkey just takes off! It runs and runs as fast as it can, as if it was scared to death! The other two surrendered. They Said: "OK, we give up. You're the best among us, and you work for the Best firm of the three. But

Please, please tell us your secret," they begged him. "Well", said the Infosian, "The first time I made it laugh, I told I work for Infosys. The next time, I told the monkey how much I get paid ...so it started crying.

And then I told that I was here for recruitment! !! Regards,
