This is what the formal Press Release says:
‘The Internet has transformed business and society. Today to very many of us, life without the web is unimaginable. In business a new breed of entrepreneurs have sprung up whose whole life is the web, creating new business models, reaching new markets and becoming the new normal. These stories are inspiring examples of such successes!’

The Mouse Charmers
Digital Pioneers of India
Anuradha Goyal
Published by Random House India, Rs 299 trade paperback
‘Are Indian companies and start-ups missing something important by ignoring local language viewers and users of digital content? Are women entrepreneurs too shy of boasting about their achievements? What kind of eco-system will make the life of start-ups in digital age smoother and more meaningful are some of the questions this books addresses, rather well. Those who wish to enter and shake up the inertia in digital markets may find this book useful. But those who wish to support them may find it even more useful.’
Prof Anil K. Gupta Professor at IIM Ahmedabad and founder of Honey Bee Network
‘Anuradha Goyal’s The Mouse Charmers is a fascinating account of India’s trailblazing digital entrepreneurs… Well researched and with deep insights into how these businesses work, The Mouse Charmers will inspire others to both study Indian entrepreneurs like Goyal has done or take up the challenge of entrepreneurship like those she writes about have done. Either way this is an important, timely and inspiring book that showcases the opportunities that India offers and the challenges that have to be overcome along the way.’
Jaideep Prabhu Professor at Judge Business School, University of Cambridge and co-author of the bestselling Jugaad Innovation
The advent of Internet has been a significant game-changer for our generation. Mouse Charmers are a new breed of entrepreneurs in emerging India powered by the Internet and the opportunities that it offers to create new markets and to cater to old markets in new ways. Some of them have already achieved success where they can be called iconic and inspiring while others have powerful ideas that put them on the same path.

Hello Ms. Goyal, I came across your book while on vacation in 2014 and purchased 3 copies, 2 of which I have given away. Thank You for writing this wonderful book. I would like to suggest that maybe you could look into a new book on the same lines but focusing purely on software products which were entirely developed in India and which have a global presence.
Thank You,
Joe.
Thank you Joe for reading, gifting and appreciating the book. I will pass on your suggestions to the publishers 🙂
Regards
Anu
