Biography

Early Years

Bikram Dasgupta was born on 29th October 1951 in Delhi, India.

HCL Days

Bikram was among the core group of professionals who joined HCL in its infancy and his contributions, as one of the key Market Development Managers, have gone a long way in establishing the market presence that HCL commands today.

PCL Days

A passionate, out-of-the-box thinker, who strongly believes in ‘ordinary people can do extraordinary things…’ wetted his formative entrepreneurial zeal by helping build Pertech Computers Limited (PCL), in 1984. As the Promoter-Director, he steered the company through the initial difficult years and took a leading role in managing a diverse set of functions ranging from Sales & Marketing, to International Business Development and new strategic projects, elevating the company to the position of the No.1 PC manufacturer in India. Among his most stellar contributions, during his PCL stint, has been to single-handedly win the single largest (US$ 50 million) export contract from Dell Computer, USA, which is still rated as the largest single contract in the hardware industry.

Globsyn

With the fast changing IT landscape Bikram Dasgupta foresaw the need for a business model built around the fundamental concepts of Infrastructure and Institution to service the knowledge economy and in 1995 conceptualized Globsyn as a group of companies, which embodied that vision. On the institution building front, it has been Mr. Dasgupta’s lifelong zeal to develop young minds to enable them to face the challenges of the modern workplace and be productive from day one. It is in this mission that he conceptualized and pioneered the Globsyn Knowledge Finishing School SystemTM which bridges the growing gap between academics and industry through industry relevant programs in a world class infrastructural setting. This, early innovator approach and concept, found expression through Globsyn Software Finishing School (GSFS) programs at TECHNOCAMPUS in 1997, the then IBM Center for Excellence.

Today, under Mr. Dasgupta’s mentorship and active guidance and after 10 years of dedicated research, diverse case studies and direct, on the ground experience, of handling over 25,000 graduates, from around 300 engineering colleges, Globsyn has been able to create a ‘Talent Transformation Engine (T2E)’, under the pioneering Finishing School System, based on real life researched data, and put together a framework of processes and methodologies that assists trainers in imparting training through a framework IP, thereby achieving healthy conversion factors, on both counts – ‘employability’ and ‘industry readiness’.

Today under Mr. Dasgupta’s tutelage Globsyn has faculties teaching over 42 different management areas, in his B-School, addressing and training engineers in over 50 technology domains through the Finishing School system and addressing multiple domains in Business Process training, coupled with Human Excellence programs in Behavioral Sciences, Voice & Accent, and other critical areas through Globsyn BPO Academy. This huge repertoire of multidimensional training and teaching capability, facilitated by over 100 teaching professionals, is a unique and the first ever Campus of such integrated learning on Alternative Education in India.

Bikram Dasgupta’s foray into software got a major fillip with the acquisition of Synergy Log-in Systems Ltd, a listed company, in 2006. Globsyn Infotech, Mr. Dasgupta’s software and technology institution building expression shares a market leadership position today in the Treasury Management space.

Infrastructure

Mr. Bikram Dasgupta is also the brains behind the concept of Knowledge Parks in India. His first project, Infinity, in 1996, the first intelligent workplace in India, was heralded as a ‘cornerstone’ project, redefining ‘workplace’, from which global deliveries could be executed. Today, he is busy implementing his second project, Globsyn Crystals – a 600,000 sq ft infrastructure, billed as India’s first Work Habitat, that integrates technology and life in one single entity.

Bikram Dasgupta’s vision to integrate infrastructure and institution, to service the knowledge economy businesses, is truly reflective of the businesses that he mentors today.
