Full CV of Soham Parekh, Indian techie accused of working at multiple US startups simultaneously
Soham Parekh, an Indian tech professional, is at the centre of a storm in Silicon Valley after being accused of moonlighting or quietly working for multiple startups at once — all without telling the companies involved. Soham Parekh was accused by Suhail Doshi, co‑founder of Mixpanel and Playground AI, of working for multiple startups at the same time.(X/@mhadifilms)
The controversy erupted after Suhail Doshi, co-founder and former CEO of analytics platform Mixpanel, took to X (formerly Twitter) to call out Soham Parekh's alleged actions.
Suhail Doshi claimed that Soham Parekh had been simultaneously involved with three to four early-stage startups, misleading founders and teams who had no idea he was dividing his time — and loyalty — elsewhere.
Doshi said 90% of his resume seems fake, and most links are gone. "I want to also say that I tried to talk sense into this guy, explain the impact, and give him a chance to turn a new leaf because sometimes that's what a person needs. But it clearly didn't work," the entrepreneur added. Here is full CV of Soham Parekh as shared by Suhail Doshi: SOHAM P. EDUCATION Georgia Institute of Technology Sept 2020 - May 2022

As part of the strategy, business to govt meetings will be held in key global cities, including New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, London, Paris, Frankfurt, Milan, Amsterdam, and Birmingham. "These events are being organised in collaboration with Indian embassies and leading industry bodies, including the USIBC, CII, and FICCI," the spokeperson said. Officials concerned pointed out that in the US, dialogues will be held with companies such as Google, Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Oracle, Equinix, Skechers, Mattel, Ralph Lauren, and Coach. In Europe and the UK, efforts will focus on attracting global giants like BMW, Bosch, BASF, Prada, Versace, Lego, Unilever, and GSK. In the context of shifting geopolitical dynamics and evolving global supply chains, Uttar Pradesh is emerging as a viable alternative to nations like Vietnam and Bangladesh.

TRAI explores licensing framework for foreign M2M/IoT SIMs/eSIMs in India
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has released a consultation paper seeking stakeholder views on the use and sale of foreign telecom service providers' SIMs and eSIMs in India, specifically for integration into machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) devices that are meant for export. The consultation paper explores whether a new service authorisation should be introduced under the Department of Telecommunications' (DoT) policy framework to allow the sale of foreign SIMs/eSIMs in India. The paper also seeks to identify any regulatory issues that may arise—such as those involving the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Customs, or other authorities—with respect to the export of Indian telecom service providers' M2M SIMs/eSIMs, especially in scenarios involving import of such devices using Indian SIMs abroad. TRAI has invited inputs on various aspects of the proposed framework, including the terms and conditions for such a service, eligibility criteria, applicable fees, and the validity period for the use of these foreign SIMs/eSIMs in M2M and IoT applications. The response of TRAI came after certain Indian manufacturers who export IoT/M2M devices to international markets have requested that foreign SIMs be made available to them in India for integration into their products prior to export. This would enable the devices to operate on foreign networks immediately upon deployment abroad. In response, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has received multiple requests seeking provisions under its No Objection Certificate (NOC) policy to permit the sale of foreign operators' SIMs/eSIMs in India for such specific use cases.

We have a good cooperation going between the energy companies of India... We have a good representation of Indian two-wheelers in Argentina... Argentina is a major agricultural country, and we have tractors present here... There is another sector which needs to be looked at very carefully, and Argentina can make use of, and that is the Indian pharmaceutical and medical devices sector... India is called the pharmacy of the world, and the medical devices made in India are of top grade. They have found markets all over Europe, in the European Union as well as in the United States... I don't see any reason why they cannot come to the Argentine market and the people of this country benefit at a cheaper cost and good quality..."
