Umang Gupta On Entrepreneurship, Part I

19:54 | Kamla Bhatt | Aug 28th, 2007 1:02pm |

Umang Gupta is CEO of Keynote Systems. I caught up with Umang at the Pan IIT Global Conference in July and talked to him about entrepreneurship and what it takes to do startups and run your business.

Umang wrote Oracle’s first business plan and went on to co-found Gupta Technologies and take it through a successful IPO. Gupta Technologies was the first client-server SQL relational database for PCs. But, after Gupta Technologies went IPO the company took a different route, and Umang stepped down from the board in 1997.

Umang is an active investor and advisor to a number of Silicon Valley start-up companies. He served on the Board of Trustees of Mosaix, a publicly held call-center systems company from 1997 to 1999 until its sale to Lucent Technologies.
