I'm concerned that this articles replies so heavily on press releases and company websites (effectively self published sources). Can we please have more third-party published sources (e.g. like the Forbes one). --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 22:05, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Romesh Wadhwani's current position edit

  • What I think should be changed (include citations):

CURRENT - Romesh T. Wadhwani (born 1947/48) is an Indian-American billionaire businessman, the founder, chairman and CEO of Symphony Technology Group (STG), a private equity firm for software, Internet and technology services companies. He established the Wadhwani Foundation for economic development in emerging economies, with an initial focus on India. Initiatives in India include the National Entrepreneurship Network.

PROPOSED - Romesh T. Wadhwani (born 1947/48) is an Indian-American billionaire,[1] businessman and head of investment firm SAIGroup[2]. He is the former chairman and CEO of Symphony Technology Group, a private equity firm for software, Internet and technology services companies. He established the Wadhwani Foundation for economic development in emerging economies, with an initial focus on India. Initiatives in India include the National Entrepreneurship Network.

  • Why it should be changed:

He is no longer the head of Symphony Technology Group, and now leads a firm focused on AI investments. News articles on this are as follows - CNBC: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/12/08/75-year-old-tech-mogul-betting-1-billion-of-his-fortune-on-ai-future.html Time: https://time.com/collection/time100-ai/6308290/romesh-and-sunil-wadhwani/

Hi,@TheChrisGale are you being paid to make edits or not? I just want to know so I can make sure I add the right {{Connected contributor}} template to the talk page. Shadow311 (talk) 15:23, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! Our marketing and PR firm works for SAIGroup and we offered to try to ask the question on behalf of Romesh. We really don't want to twist the system and are trying to make sure we don't go against Wikipedia policies. If we make any mistakes please do let us know. TheChrisGale (talk) 16:25, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
So we're not exactly contracted to do this one particular thing or for work related to Wikipedia specifically. But we are definitely paid agents of SAIGroup. TheChrisGale (talk) 16:27, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
