Subject: Request for technical help in starting a product based technical venture.

Respected Sir, 
       I am Manuj Keshari, a 2009 passout from BITS PILANI Goa Campus. I have previously worked with Tejas Networks & ST Microelectronics and am now starting my own technical venture in Image Processing and its applications on embedded hardware. The application targeted is Biometrics Identification. I got to know about you from one of your ex-students: Rahul Kumar, a 2009 MTech, (Embedded Systems) passout from DAVV Indore, currently working in ST. 
       I have developed the code for my application in MATLAB (using concepts of Statistical Image Processing and Artificial Intellgence) and am currently trying to integrate it with an open source code (licensed under BSD) in OpenCV / MATLAB to make it more effective and useful. I am presently looking to expand technical team by including electronics and Computer Science enthusiasts to work with me in improving the code and finally developing an embedded application around it. 
      Sir, I am currently stuck with a lack of team and a general guidance, both technically and on entrepreneurial front. I have a target application and am looking for some technical guidance about developing a hardware for the same. It would be great of you, Sir, if you could take some time out from your busy schedule to please mentor and guide me about the technical aspects of it. I have contacted TiE (The Indus Entrepreneur) to understand the business side of my application and am in continuous discussions with them to improve my B-Plan and marketability of this product. 
     Sir, I am attaching a draft of my B-Plan for your kind reference. Please note this is not final (and not complete, fields marked TBD have to be discussed and filled) and might be modified based on feedbacks received from TiE mentoring sessions. This is just for a quick & first hand information about the product and the market I am targeting. 
      Waiting for your reply,

Thanks & Regards,
Manuj Keshari
