I saw a pitch for Bizmark in a blog meet sponsored my Microsoft recently. In all the gushing about the help they are providing to startups, they neglect talking too much about the strings attached. The article you quote however mentions some: > For signing up for the program, a start up needs to be engaged in the > development of software-based product or service, that is core to > their business model. It needs to be privately held, with lees than > three years in business. Also, the firm should have less than $1 > million in annual revenue. Microsoft Corp (India) will take $100 from > the startup when it (the startup) exits the program after three > years. In short, it is prisonerware. - Sandip _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
