“Massive Potential for Online Training Technologies; The Critical Point is Going To Be The Measurement” – Andy Smith

August 31, 2017 by thebengali

Aviation Training is estimated to be a 6 Billion USD industry, which is growing very rapidly. While a healthy 12% of this market-size belongs to Training Hardware products (Simulator, Training Devices sub-segment), the industry portfolio includes a very diverse range of Services, Products and Emerging solutions. We had a chance to catch up at length with Andy Smith, Founder of Halldale Media at the Asia Pacific Aviation Training Symposium (APATS 2017) in Singapore (held on August 28-30, 2017). Halldale publishes […]

Knock, Knock, Who’s There? Nature.

August 29, 2017 by thebengali

Hurricane, heavy rains, floods in Texas; Typhoon, heavy rains in Hong Kong, Macau; Heavy rains, water-logging in Mumbai; heavy rains, cloud bursts, landslides in Himachal Pradesh and other Himalayan states in India; Floods in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bihar, Uttar Pradesh in India; floods in Beijing … all within a 2-3 month interval … isn’t it odd, that all these natural excesses are occurring simultanoeusly? What dots are we missing, dots that nature has connected, maybe other lines that have been […]

An extra-ordinary Ordinary Person: Pratik Ghosh

August 27, 2017 by thebengali

Last week (Monday to be precise), I got a call from Pratik Ghosh. It was late morning, I was in the middle of a meeting in an office, but I picked up on second ring the moment I saw who was calling. The call lasted less than 3 minutes, and by the end of it, I had decided to push everything off my plate, and go across town from Baner to Bund Garden to meet Pratik around 6 in the […]

I Used To Be A River…

August 22, 2017 by thebengali

  I used to be a river Now there’s only dirt My gurgling course was life then Now I die of thirst     I hurtled across desert lands Painting a blooming landscape Barren lies my bed now Not a thorn forth to spring     I bred a billion children Feeding them the milk of life Wounded they leave my womb now Not a saviour among     I cried with every concrete block They built upon my fertile […]

What Are You Willing To Risk …

August 20, 2017 by thebengali

If you are willing to risk your money for a cause, you can make more money. If you are willing to risk your reputation for the cause, you can become an intellectual. If you are willing to risk your relationships for the cause, you can gain power. If you are willing to risk people and their lives for a cause, you can become a leader. If you are willing to risk your own life for the cause, you can become […]

Money, Ideas, Risk, & Wealth

August 20, 2017 by thebengali

If you don’t have money, you have very slim prospects of creating wealth. If you don’t have money but have a good idea, you can increase your slim prospects of creating wealth. If you don’t have money but have a good idea but are unwilling to invest your time to make the idea work, it is unlikely that you will create wealth. If you have money but are not willing to risk it, it is unlikely that you will create […]

The Purpose of Art

August 18, 2017 by thebengali

I woke up this morning and wrote 12000 words in prose and verse, about many different things. It had been a couple of weeks since I had written at length and it felt good, giving me perspective and focus. Meanwhile, I received several messages, emails, social media comments and pings on a verse I published yesterday, Farewell and Fare Thee Well. My blog stats hit the roof. I also missed several calls, and managed to have a few meaningful conversations […]

Farewell and Fare Thee Well

August 17, 2017 by thebengali

My life is winding itself down  And I know my time is coming soon I have been blessed to have lived such a meaningful life  I have been blessed to know so many people But I won’t be here any more  I have done all I wanted and more I have no regret or desires But I won’t be here to see you grow  I look at the spirit in your eyes  I feel the strength of your hands  In […]
