Mayank Dhingra’s Summary

Started my career with Fidelity International as a campus recruit from Delhi College of Engineering. After working their as a programmer for a year and a half I joined the Startup Bandwagon and started experimenting with Social Media.

Worked for slideshare.net at their Delhi office for a year in the capacity of a software developer and contributed to various aspects from analytics to marketing new features.

After moving from slideshare I joined another startup "Mpower Mobile" which works with mobile payments. Spent a year working on their payment backend. Alongside I also started my own venture kwippy.com with two colleagues from slideshare. Kwippy is India's premier conversational/microblogging platform.
