Subendhu,

Would be great if you could circulate this email to the graduating students from the B Tech and M Tech programs of computer science. Also would be great if you could forward it to students to circulate in other departments as well.

Thanks

Hi,

We are living in the most exciting times for technology the world has ever seen. As young graduates about to enter the professional world we would like to offer you a chance to acquire a perspective of what startups are all about. You've seen and heard of world changing firms, like Apple, Cisco, Google, Yahoo etc. We'd like to show you how it was like with them when they started. Our hope is that this information will help you make a considered choice on how to best spend these valuable formative years right out of college.

We are Sequoia Capital, a global venture capital firm, best known for being early investors and partners of companies like Google, Yahoo, Apple, Cisco, Oracle, Electronic Arts, Nvidia, PayPal, YouTube, Linkedin, Airbnb, Dropbox, Whatsapp and several others. We have been investing in companies in India for the last 7 years and are privileged to be partners with companies like Naukri.com, Café Coffee Day, Druva, Justdial, Micromax, MuSigma, Vasan eye care, Zomato and others.

We are organising an event for top programmers and computer science students to interact with CTO's drawn from a cross-section of our portfolio. Companies such as Freecharge, Cardekho, Bank bazaar, Justdial, Healthkart, Druva, Via, Capillary, Knowlarity, and others. We hope that by attending this event, you will gain a first hand feel for the exciting journey of a startup, what it is like to start/ work for one and the kind of engineering challenges top startups in India are trying to solve. If you find this exciting, apply here - Start@Startup.
