Dr. P. B. Sharma said I am desirous of the to start a corporate school in the field of telecommunication in the RGPV with association with Aegis School of telecommunication. Dr. P. B. Sharma expressed his thoughts that MP has deficiency on Masters Level and on corporate level that is one of the main reasons that we are not able to offer the product innovation not able to make your share in international market in the field of technology and this school will fill this void. Speaking to news man Mr. Kallol Kanungo Vice Presedent Global Telecom said that in industry there is requirement of techno-commercial people. In India we have got management institutes which creates the management graduates we have got engineering institutes which creates engineers but we don't get the feel of both these thighs together. So This School named Aegis will defiantly will do better to the industry as a whole If you ask me as a corporate I have to recruit the managers and technical people separate but when I have to depute the person for the project kind of thing I have to depute two persons separately this is the biggest limitation for any technological company .If we have single guy who can do both the things then this will be value addition to the person also that's where Aegis will fill in the gap. He added that there will be about 10,000 techno commercial persons will be required in the telecommunication and that is huge requirement.
