What is an invitation?
For two people to connect, one must invite the other and the other must accept. You can send an invitation to anyone (SiliconIndia user or not) as long as you have that person's email address. The only difference is that non-SiliconIndia members will have to register before accepting your invitation. Each invitation accepted can add thousands of professionals to your network.
Whom should I invite to be in my network?
When you invite a friend or colleague to reconnect, be sure the person you're choosing will be a good addition to your network. Only invite those you know and trust. You may be asked to tell one of your trusted friends more about the person you invite, and they may have to do the same for you. Or you may be forwarding a request (your own, or one from a friend) through them. Be sure you trust them to represent you and to treat a potentially serious request with appropriate care.
