BIKRAM

DASGUPTA

An alumnus of Harvard Business School and Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, Mr. Bikram Dasgupta is among the early pioneers of the Indian Information Technology Industry and has witnessed the emergence of the Indian IT Industry from garage start-ups to billion dollar behemoths.

The emergence of the Indian Information Technology industry saw the birth of a generation of first time entrepreneurs – entrepreneurs with no family history of business enterprise. This generation was marked by their ambition and fierce determination to change the order of things. They innovated, they disrupted, and they brought in new rules into the game. They lived by their instincts.

Mr. Dasgupta’s entrepreneurial journey is a story of this change. A story defined by its quintessential highs and lows, of dreams, of daring to think beyond the ordinary and an insatiable appetite for risk taking.

A globally traveled personality, Mr. Dasgupta has led & participated in many international delegations over the years, across industry bodies. A charismatic and articulate speaker, Mr. Dasgupta has been at the forefront of the evolution of I.T. hardware, software, training, and now, high-skilled career education.

His books “I Did It My Way – the untold story on the Birth of IT in India from a pioneer” and “Minds on Fire – an Infotech entrepreneur’s journey” are case study books in some leading B-Schools in India.
