I m now in touch with ALZEA (www.alzea.org), an organisation that select for you marketing and technical students that wish to spend 3 to 6 months in India for their last year.
They came from France and Europe, and ALZEA has today a good track record of 60 students based in India.
If you would like to have a support from dynamic intern coming in your company to discover with you french and european market, bring a new cultural sense in your team... do contact me and tell me what are your needs! I ll follow to Divya, who is in charge of India for ALZEA.
See you soon, and do come and visit me in Pondicherry.
Great idea. Would love to talk to a few of them. What is their background? Market Research? Marketing? Sales? What kind of institutions do they come from? What do the students expect? Can they work for small startups are looking for mid-sized or large companies?
Would love to talk to some companies that employ them and their experience. Your answers may trigger more questions.
If you prefer, I can send you an email but would love to explore this further since it may of interest to a larger community as well.
Yes, do send an email to cyril.rollinde@arandi.org, or call me at 9791795451. Best would be to contact Divya Trivedi, in charge of India, that could give you contacts of start ups that have already worked with them. In fact, I already employed 4 of them last year. But I m french myself, my feedback may not be as neutral as I would like!
Sounds interesting and it is true that a great cultural diversity can be established thru the student exchange program. Please visit us at www.voicesnap.com to know more about us; ours is a global product and we would love to reach out to the European market.
Thanks for your answer. reaching the european market is one of the interesting use you can have with these interns. But you may consider having a senior or other consultant managing them of course. I didn t really get the exact features of your solution in your website. There are lot of opportunities and competition in the VoIP segment in Europe. But for sure interesting indian technologies may find partners in this field.
You can also call me or send mail (cyril.rollinde@arandi.org or 9791795451)
Thanks Cyril..the website is meant as a teaser and not to provide all the details although we are considering adding more pages now:) LOL
I will send out a presentation about our company and what we do to your email ID and if it sounds interesting based on your knowledge of the European market, we can take it further. Hope this is fine.
I ve never quit in fact! But pondi appears in fact far from chennai when I would like to come to your meetings!
I would be eager to keep in touch. I ve contacts with french start ups and would be happy to come during your next meetings. Or, best, welcome one of your meeting in Pondicherry!! French wine would be provided!!
