Fantastic to have MIT alumnus entrepreneur and venture advisor
Manas Ratha ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXWPVg5pGzQXFF6oKRv8o7vT2dRkEYjROcgsqPnh04cnRR2VkjSp0wk3G3l5wq3I7r2a3SOhrfCPYe3jBo0RmDpaa6eODNq-jgSYkGWRgMi0gawifHDLzZsN0uoevcvcQk_kbcRKKukqI/s400/manas.jpg)
join me on
MaximizingProgress.tv tonight! Today he's with
Avendus Capital in Mumbai,
India doing investment banking, including M&A advisory, private equity syndication and strategic work for mid- to large-size firms. But Manas and I first got to know each other through his work with MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition (back in its pre-inflation $10K and $50K day;-) and the
System Dynamics kids education project with amazing MIT Professor Jay Forrester on
Road Maps, creating guides for K12 folks to learning the discipline, a key STEM educational element! After graduation, Manas became a dot-communist, starting a B2B ecommerce venture at the cusp of market trauma. Later working in audio systems business transforming a business from export-oriented to local-market centric, he ultimately shifted to the current role at Avendus. We're all looking forward to what entrepreneurial adventures are next!
