Excerpts from speech Infosys chief N R Narayana Murthyat the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.


The Infosys Way
N R NARAYANA MURTHY


Today, my mind goes back to a sultry, fateful morning in July 1981, to my meeting with the other six founders of Infosys. The seven of us had forsaken - at least as it then appeared to our friends and families - safe and promising corporate careers.


We were huddled together in a small room in Mumbai in the hope of creating a brighter future for ourselves, for Indian society and, perhaps, we dreamed, even for the world. Confidence, commitment, passion, hope, energy, enthusiasm and the capacity for hard work were available in plenty. However, money was in short supply. We struggled to put together a princely sum of $250 as our initial seed capital. We were helped in this by our ever-enthusiastic bankers - our generous wives.

Our enthusiasm can be expressed in the words of Eleanor Roosevelt who said: "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams".
