My receptionist comes to me and hands me this Bottle of Wine, that has come for me by courier from California!!
Everyone in the office is wondering – what is Alok upto – I mean is this what he thinks of, on a Monday morning?
I kinda get excited and check the wine first… and then also peep inside the big brown box that had packed the wine… whether it had a card inside or not?
Yes!! It sure did. Check out:
Ok!! So the wine was from Canaan Partners California.
Yeah!
And then, just then, I realized the GRAVITY of the Occasion and the Gift:
CANAAN PARTNERS WAS CELEBRATING ITS RAISE OF 600 MILLION DOLLARS as FUND IX!!
Wow!!!
Thank you Alok Mittal and Rahul Khanna for the gift and the token of appreciation!
Now, I hope your kindness to the Entrepreneur and Start Up community will be even more pronounced!!
Watch out guys – we, the Indian Entrepreneurs are COMING for your money!!
p.s – No doubt the wine I got today is exceptional – check out – https://www.kenswineguide.com/wine_review/Paul-Hobbs-2008-Napa-Valley-Cabernet
