Mita: I started my startup journey in 2008. Back then when I joined, my first job was with Honeywell. But now the startup ecosystem is so big in India and probably the fourth biggest in the world where I come from Bangalore. So many of the great technology companies here in the United States are now being led by Indian CEOs and management. It's really amazing to see the entrepreneurial spirit to be blossoming and growing there.
