 Guys,

Fabulous work on the Barcamp organizations so far. I got this email from someone I know in NASSCOM. it seems that there is a workshop happening for those interested in setting up their own company. Can you forward it to those on the mailing list, and perhaps they might find it interesting? It might be even worthwhile to make a short post on the blog.

               NASSCOM   presents a workshop  for Product Startups "Escaping Early Stage Traps" 
    
   Early-stage companies are often short of   money and need to get traction with early-adopter customers and venture investors.   This is a particularly challenging period for the startup. There are three   traps that they commonly fall into. These relate to product architecture,   go-to-market strategy and building out of the core team. This workshop   explains these traps and shows startups how to navigate them. 
    
   Target   audience: Early-stage product   companies. 
    
   This workshop is part of NASSCOM's   Product Initiatives for Early-stage Product Companies, Entrepreneurs, Product   teams and Incubating companies.
    
   We look forward to see you.
    
   Best Regards,
