Kleiner Perkins 7 rules for software start-ups -Aniruddha Nazre

                  Kleiner Perkins 7 rules for software start-ups

Aniruddha Nazre at Kleiner Perkins has 7 rules for software start-ups they consider funding. I was on a "future of software" panel at TiECon East yesterday with Aniruddha Nazre, the partner at Kleiner Perkins.  Several interesting trends emerged from the panel discussion, but enhance the 7 rules synthesized everything for me.

KP's 7 rules for start-ups
1: Instant Value to customers - solve a problem or create value with the first use
2: Viral adoption - Pull, not push. No direct sales force required
3: Minimum IT footprint, preferably none. Hosted SaaS is best.
4: Simple, intuitive user experience - no training required.
5: Personalized user experience - customizable
6: Easy configuration based on application or usage templates
7: Context-aware - adjust to location, groups, preferences, devices, etc.
Most start-ups will not align with all 7 rules. But, if you don't follow at least 5 of them...rethink your plan and business model.

UPDATE: Ben Barren has a unique perspective on the 7 rules. Nicolas Toper also has interesting views.

InMobi gulps Silicon Valley startup Sprout -Aniruddha Nazre


Bangalore: Bangalore-based InMobi, a mobile ad network, acquired the U.S.-based Sprout, a platform provider for creating HTML5 rich media mobile advertising. With this acquisition, InMobi can leverage Sprout's technology to address the complexity of planning, creating, distributing and measuring of rich media mobile ads for brands and agencies in India and globally. Typically, enterprises spend $10k to $15k, to publish rich media ads on the network. With InMobi bundling up Sprouts services to their portfolio, the company intends to explore next-generation rich media ads to its customers spread across 165 countries. 

InMobi with its presence in five continents gets more than 36.2 billion ad impressions every month. It provides advertisers, publishers, and developers with a uniquely global solution for advertising. Its fast-growing network delivers the unprecedented ability to reach 314 million consumers. InMobi was recently included in both the 2011 AlwaysOn Global 250 and 2011. The company that has raised $16 million till now is backed by investors like Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers and Sherpalo Ventures. It has offices in San Francisco, London, Bangalore, Tokyo, Nairobi, and Singapore. 

Aniruddha Nazre Partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Buyers said, "The mobile industry is yet to fully capitalize on the engaging advertising experiences now possible through smart devices." After this acquisition, Sprout will operate as a fully independent company working with the entire mobile advertising industry to solve the HTML5 creation and delivery problem. It will also continue to expand its product in the coming months by adding workflow enhancements, analytics, and innovative new ad units. 

Carnet Williams, CEO, and Co-Founder of Sprout said, "InMobi's commitment to an open and independent Sprout made them the clear choice for us. We will continue to work with all existing partners, including ad networks, globally."

Thin-film thermoplastic-metal joining process for titanium to poly(etherketoneetherketoneketone) Aniruddha Nazre

Abstract




The processing of high-temperature thermoplastic polymers as a hot melt adhesive is one means of joining thermoplastics to metals. The present study establishes the role of processing in the thermoplastic joining of a titanium alloy (Ti-6A1-4V) using thin-film poly(etherketoneetherketoneketone) (PEKEKK). A design of experiments (DOE) was performed to determine the effects of the soak above melt temperature (Tm = 380°C), hold at the isothermal recrystallization temperature (Tiso = ∼ 340°C) and cooling rates on the joint strength, Extended soak times are required to remove the residual spherulitic crystallinity in the polymeric adhesive. Whit the elimination of the residual crystallinity, high-strength transcrystalline regions are enhanced at the polymer-metal interface during the hold time at Tiso and during cooling to ambient temperature. Average tensile strengths of 137 MPa were achieved, exceeding the bulk polymer tensile strength of 118 MPa by 16%, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shows that extended soak times above Tm led to excessive polymer squeeze-out, resulting int he creation of strength-reducing shrink voids or unwetted regions. As a result, the failure mode of the joint, which was normally cohesive for high-strength joints, became a mix of cohesive and adhesive in parts with excessive polymer squeeze out. Aniruddha  Nazre

Patents by Inventor Aniruddha Nazre

Patent number: 5591164
Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus for external fixation and stabilization of a fracture in a bone including a one-piece fixation rod, at least two fixation pins attachable to the bone, and at least two clamp assemblies. Each clamp assembly interconnects at least one fixation pin and the fixation rod, The fixation rod is compressible in an axial direction upon the occurrence of axial loads typical to those experienced at the fracture, thereby allowing an axial compression loading to be placed on the bone at the fracture when the apparatus is in use. The fixation rod consists essentially of a non-homogeneous, i.e., composite, material.
Type: Grant
Filed: December 22, 1994
Issued: January 7, 1997
Assignee: Zimmer, Inc.
Inventors: Aniruddha Nazre, Elson B. Fish
Patent number: 5573548
Abstract: A suture anchor comprises a shaft having a proximal and a distal end. A screw thread extends from the shaft and spirals from the proximal to the distal end. A cross-hole is formed through the shaft and the screw thread near the proximal end. The cross-hole receives a suture which provides a double end of the suture to facilitate attachment of soft tissue. In a preferred embodiment, the shaft is tapered from a larger diameter proximally to a smaller diameter distally while the major diameter of the screw thread remains constant over most of its length. The suture anchor contains a driven portion which preferably contains a groove to conduct the suture from the cross-hole to the free end of the driven portion. A driver for the suture anchor having an engagement portion for engaging the driven portion likewise contains a groove so that when the engagement portion engages the driven portion the two grooves align to form an enclosed passageway for conducting the suture as the suture traverses the driven portion.
Type: Grant
Filed: June 9, 1994
Issued: November 12, 1996
Assignee: Zimmer, Inc.
Inventors: Aniruddha Nazre, Steven L. Krebs, S. Kyle Hayes
Patent number: 5405347
Abstract: This invention provides for the angular and lateral adjustment of a pair of fixator rods in an infinite number of planes. The angular adjustment member may be rotated about a center axis of the connector such that the connected fixator rods may be angled relative to one another in any plane called for. Similarly, the lateral adjustment may be rotated about the center axis of the connector such that the two fixator rods may be shifted laterally relative to one another in any direction. The adjustable connector provides for the adjustment of the fixator rods after the rods have been connected to the bone pins. Therefore, after a surgeon has reduced and stabilized the fracture, minor adjustments can be carried out to fully align the bone fragments without disconnecting the fixator rods or the bone pins. After all, adjustments have been made, a series of locking bolts or pins can be engaged to hold the adjustable connector in a fixed position.
