There are only very few entrepreneurs who think alike and stay focused to conquer the success. Success in the cut throat world of business usually comes as a result of several factors such as the ability to understand a market's needs, treating challenges as stepping stones and by having an in depth understanding of the industry you are in. In this issue we have identified few such entrepreneurs who have mastered these skills. The cover story narrates the tale of Sonny Gupta, President and CEO, Maintec Technologies a technology driven organization that is an expert in the domain of data center management, IT staffing and mainframe outsourcing. Gupta steered the focus of his company to different directions based on the needs of the industry. He only had two things to fall back upon, his in depth industry knowledge and rock solid work ethics. Building a strong foundation upon these two factors Maintec is today moving forward to cover new technologies and geographies alike. Rao Tallapragada, Co- Founder and President of Infoyogi is another such entrepreneur with similar traits that I had mentioned earlier. After his strong stints in software services market in U.S. he saw a huge opportunity during the bubble. Being bold and fighting against all the odds, today Infoyogi is well-poised in the market and has been growing rapidly. Moreover, we have Razient, a solutions provider for compliance and physical risk management featured in the 'Company of the Month' Column. Today Razient's revolutionary technology is helping the company carve a niche for itself in the risk mitigation industry. At the helm of this dynamic company is Bahadur's prior experiences in the field of security that laid the ground work for building Razient. This issue is a compendium of such smart entrepreneurs who don't take their eyes off from the grand goal and as you get to know them better, you will find varying passion, vision, ideas and energy.
