The boring stuff:
Indian male, IT work experience - 8 years
GMAT: 750
GPA: 3.1
Maybe interesting stuff:
Diplomatic background, grew up in 7 countries
Canadian education since high school
Worked in Silicon valley at 2 of the big name tech firms.
Good extra curriculars in university and post work.
The (I think) interesting stuff:
Co-founded an application development startup
Managed, hired, led employees and directed company strategy/product develpment
Had over 400K customers - in every imaginable country.
Sold the company to another tech firm!
Avid public speaker and exec of a toastmasters club
Motivation:
As I have a international background and I have successfully started and sold a company, I want to go to business school to develop the business knowhow to succeed further in the technology world. While running my previous company I sometimes felt my business skills were simply not there, although I had plenty technical skills. A lot of the business skills and knowhow I developed on the fly. But I want to fine tune them.
So want to go for entrepreneurship MBA.
School interested in:
INSEAD, LBS, MIT, Columbia, Rotman

You have great work experience that should really carry you here. Now your GPA is low for your target schools but your GMAT should really help out here. I think you have a solid chance at the schools listed.
