Vishy Poosala

I run Bell Labs India, at Alcatel-Lucent. We spend a lot of fun time at work creating disruptive innovations for emerging markets and beyond.

I was the founder and CTO of a venture called Geopepper - Location-based Geofencing Service. It was 2 yrs ahead of its time and hence not the best idea for a startup but a great idea for research. Lots of fun!

I hack for Alertpedia, the world's most comprehensive source of free online alerts on everything from craigslit to earthquakes, hollywood to cricket.

We run a Just Books library in Bangalore.

I read books and then write recipes on things I found helpful (innovation, ideal job, meditation, marketing).

I enjoy mentoring start-ups in Bangalore. I play a mentor-partner role at Headstart Ventures.
