In front of 1,200 community leaders across Canada, at the gala event, the Tuli brothers were recognized for their record of innovation, strong leadership skills and for enhancing the profile of Indo-Canadians with the global business community.  The Technology Achievement Award was presented by Canadian Minister of Natural Resources, Honourable Joseph Oliver and ICCC President Satish Thakkar.  “Our goal was to bring out the role models and celebrate their achievements in order to inspire, motivate and acknowledge their contribution to the fabric of Canadian society,” said Mr. Thakkar.
Serial entrepreneurs, Raja and Suneet have launched a number successful technology ventures over the last twenty years that resulted in successful initial public offerings on the Nasdaq stock market and products that even received recognition by the Guinness book of records.
