general manager, digital enterprise group, Intel Corp.

“The WiMAX initiative will cover a radius of 20 km from the center of
the city. This is an enormous challenge and we are expecting this to be
in place by early next year,” he added.
Incidentally, a couple of years ago, there was a plan to wi-fi the entire city but the whole plan did not take off.
“But this time, we have got five requests for proposals (RFPs) and we
hope by January 2007, the whole project should be live,” Vidyashankar
added.
Vidyashankar is credited with having made an entire government
department ( Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board) paperless -
mammoth task, especially when comes to government offices.
