[Chennaipy] Looking For a Python Resource Person

[Thiru Srinivasan]

Hi Prasanna,

I am a newbie to Chennai Python club. I am a CA working with a sovereign wealth fund. Currently am based at Abu Dhabi and will be relocating to Chennai by May , probably will be able to join next time. But I can put together a slide pack on where and how Python is used in Investment Banking.  Feel free to use the slides as you wish. 

Regards,
Thiru Narayanan T Srinivasan

We are inaugurating a club / community of students, professors & technicians inside the University to promote Freedom of Knowledge (Free Software, Open Access,             etc.,). We also have mobilized people from various schools of Engineering & Sciences who were interested with this.

We wanted to invite people from outside to deliver a talk / hands-on session, I can assist the speaker with technical needs during the session.
