Abstract: Abhishek Gupta was 10 when he got his first scholarship. Apart from learning and growing, he imbibed the values of hard work and competitiveness. A minor in business along with his engineering degree allowed him to explore his inherent interest in business. After years in consulting and private equity, he co-founded Circle.Life, the world’s first, fully-digital telecommunications company. From a startup of 10–20 people, the company now has 500 employees in six Asia-Pacific countries.
