I was feverish on Wednesday, so I happened to miss out on the amazing opportunity of being a part of this meet. From what I gathered talking to Sumit and his blog - this is how it went:
Cafe Coffee Day @ RDB Boulevard Salt Lake Sector V was buzzing with people, many of whom even we've never met. About 7 laptops, wifi, coffee, music and more.
There were about 15+ people poured in and went back with an experience which will bring them back many more times. Sounds unbelievable? Well ask them.
Here are the names who walked in:
҂ Sumit Datta (Pixlie)
҂ Saikat Singha (Pixlie)
҂ Prashant Verma (Salt Lake Software)
҂ Pallav Nadhani (InfoSoft Global)
҂ Sumana Chakroborty (pixlie)
҂ Sougata Pal (KonectIt)
҂ Bibhash (Consultant/Freelancer)
҂ Samiran Ghosh (Cognizant)
҂ Mitesh Ashar (Freelancer)
҂ Nitesh Ambuj (E Force)
҂ Pankaj (E Force)
҂ Abishek Rungta (Indus Net Technologies)
҂ Ashmita Brahma (Freelancer)
҂ Nikita Poddar (Cognizant)
҂ Debashish Mohanty (Cognizant)
What came out of this? Well..
» Sumana got freelance creative writing work..
» Sumit came out with the name for a venture that Pallav and Abishek are coming up with.
» Sumit and Mitesh discussed a new project he will be working on with Sumit.
There was some serious work done, awesome fun and as Sumit puts it, he only managed to have his lunch (a chicken burger) at 5 PM!
