[Hemant Joshi]

Please note the change in timings. It will start at 6:00 PM instead of 5:00 PM.

Footprint Venture will be visiting Pune in next week, 3rd July. They are an early stage venture capital fund, based out of India. (http://footprintventures.com/index.htm ). I am trying to arrange their meeting with POCC members where they can informally interact with POCC member and talk for a few minutes on their prospective, what they look for, etc. The tentative plan is to have this meeting from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The venue is TBD. I will confirm the venue and meeting in a few days. If anyone can arrange for place, it will be great.

Update on Venue:

The venue will be Seed Infotech's office in Erandawana.

The complete address is

Seed Infotech
Nalanda building, Opposite Gandhi Lawns,
Erandwane, Pune

I also uploading the map and directions.

Many thanks to Naredra Barhate, CEO of SeedInfotech for arrnaging a place for the meeting.

Update: We will also have Neeraj Arora, Manager, Corporate Development & M&A for Google (South Asia and Australia) join us in the meeting on Thursday. He wanted to interact with the startup community in Pune. Neeraj is based out of Delhi.

TastyKhana can arrange venues for such meets, let me know if you need
a) only a place to meet
b) place + some food (snacks etc)

Also are people willing to pay (share) whatever is the cost of place & food(if any)

Thanks Shachin, since the group size could vary, how do you suggest we should go about this?

Attendees will be paying for their snacks purchased (self). If we can locate a good place to meet for about 2 hours in the evening.
