After going through a complete shakeup of relocating back and forth from India, I had decided to try something on my own, but didnt know where to start. So after coming back to US, I went around and explored any opportunity I had to pursue this dream. Following were some of the trials:
- With S & A to start up and build up old "As" in full swing
- With S &A on a software app to be developed by hiring people in India
- With S &A on Cube
- A then completely dropped off
- S and I had a call with Cube person with no progress
- Me with D on H. Dragged S also into this. Didnt go anywhere. We asked for a share in H which didnt happen.
- Talked to V on joining hands. Started the first one by printing cards and paying visit to Rig manufacturers. Negotiated for a deal for weeks and got a great price point, but no luck from B in India.
- With V on Oil Rig Part project. No advancement there as well.
- With V on starting a Hyundai dealership.
- With V using P bhai to start a tie up with Kochachan in India.
- With V on starting up an Indian grocery store. This deal became close to cut, but the building owner backed out on the agreed rent. I went and negotiated directly with the guys in Arlington, TX.
- V and S on another store.
- Mutliple discussions with S from India - very lucrative, God knows where it will lead. Only project ongoing...
- With A from Metro to start their US Operations.
- With V again to work with B bhai - Meeting with him mid Feb
- With V and H chet on something with an investment to get GC
- With Lan for new startup
- With Jeff on "Korean Chicken"
- With Vij and B bhai at "On The Border" - a Big Positive meeting
- From B on the GPS stuff
- With B and V on being together.
- Lan called again to restart the plans
- With Vij Uncle and P chitt for a thermal paint project - Didn't go anywhere, seems to be a fake one
- With B again, still hanging in the air - I lost interest due to their pathetic response time
- With H chet on with V uncle
- With Kish and his team on a telecom venture. Multiple discussions and ppts submitted.
- With U on something together
