The launch party of the World Zoroastrian Chamber of Commerce, Pune Chapter, was held at the Corinthian Club. With Pune boasting of the second largest congregation of Zoroastrians in the world next to Mumbai, It’s not surprising that the think-tanks of the community decided to zero in on Pune as the ideal destination. After being conceived and flagged off in Houston, USA, three years ago, it was launched in Mumbai at the turn of this year. Delhi was the next launch-pad after which, the two torch bearers, Adi Engineer, a technocrat of forty years and Kerman Kasad, who is into corporate communications, worked on bringing it to Pune. The moving spirit behind this project Minoo Shroff, who is also President of the Bombay Parsi Panchayat, emphasised how the success of Zoroastrian entrepreneurs in the city should serve as a beacon of light for the young aspirants. Meher Pudumjee, Vice Chairperson, Thermax Group and Farhad Forbes, director, Forbes Marshall Group, represented the corporate czars in Pune on stage. While movers and shakers of the community like Dr.K.B.Grant, Arnawaz Damania, Pesi Ankleseria, Eruch Chindhy and Nawaz Kamdin graced the audience The evening ended on a note of great zeal as everyone seemed charged to work towards economic resurgence and face the new age challenges.
