Colleagues describe them as "I have known Prof Venugopal since I took a BSI course on Lead Auditor for BS25999-2. Since then, as a keen BCM practitioner, I have been in continual touch with him to clear my understanding and obtain guidance in this regard. Prof Venugopal has a tremendous capacity in explaining the nuances of Business Continuity Management (BCM) in a very simple and methodical way, which can only come from a person who has a deep knowledge in the field. From my experience in this area over the last several years, I feel that the field of BCM is constantly evolving worldwide and, in India, it is still in a nascent stage where awareness is not widespread. Companies and governments (at all levels) are not yet fully conscious of the immense benefits that BCM can bring in mitigating the consequences of disastrous/disruptive events. In this scenario, Prof Venugopal has made tremendous efforts in spreading the knowledge and championing the cause of BCM in various forums and also influencing people who matter." and "I had the opportunity of attending the BS25999 LA program under guidance from Prof. Venugopal Iyengar. Prof. Iyengar is an unparalleled educator, and a storehouse of knowledge with an in depth knowledge of the subject. He is an excellent entrepreneur & a visionary of future technologies. It certainly is a privilege being educated by him. My sincere thanks to him for his guidance and all my best wishes to him for his future ventures."
