While in Delhi last week, I managed to pop in to mingle at the Nasscom Emergeout Conclave 2010. Alok Mittal and Harish Gandhi from Canaan Partners and Suvir Sujan from Nexus Venture Partners were among venture capitalist attendees. And there were plenty of startups, of course, which made lunch-time and the post-lunch period great for networking.
It is good to see Nasscom, the ‘big boys club’ for many years, batting for the little people. Here’s the list of companies that were judged the League of Ten for 2010 out of a total of 50 select emerging companies:
8K Miles Web Services On-demand talent pool and computing infrastructure solution for small businesses.
CoCubes SMS-enabled online platform for connecting colleges, companies and students.
EKO India Financial Services Financial transactions via mobile for rural populations.
Voicetap Online and mobile-based platform to connect knowledge seekers with experts.
Gridbots Technologies Robots for day-to-day domestic activities, industrial activities and education.
iXiGO Online and mobile travel search engine.
Medsynaptic Tele-radiology solutions that allow transfer of images on very low bandwidth.
Srishti Software Software products for web content management and healthcare.
TeleDNA Communications Mobile VAS infrastructure solutions for mobile telecom services providers.
Webaroo Mobile-enabled social messaging platform.
