“Dear Anil, your speech was clearly the talk of the CSLE for the entire next day. You accomplished precisely what we had hoped for: to shift the perception of our members with regards to their strategies for BRIC regions. You also advanced pragmatic wisdom for our crowd, particularly with what I considered the quote of the speech: Cut the chains and you become free, cut the roots and you die. I believe those words will be carried by our audience in perpetuity.

Again, we thank you so much for your fantastic contribution, for delivering a perfect presentation, for educating everyone of the realities of China and India emergence, and for making our CSLE event more special. “

”Anil, your session was very well received.  The knowledge you conveyed in a short period of time was impressive. You made some very impactful observations about a US/European company pursuing the Indian market with current global products and services e.g. a solution in search of a problem without understanding the markets in India.  This lead to a very stimulating discussion after you left. Thanks for leading a stimulating session. “
