WHY ENTREPRENEURS ARE THE ONLY HOPE OF INDIA

India as a nation does have its share of socio-economic problems, but at the same time, it is rapidly emerging as the leading powerhouse of ideas and talent. To this, I strongly believe that the talent pool the country possesses is the real resource and the engine of growth as we move forward in the next 20 years. 

“It's important to note that each year, India's millionaire club grows by 11% and a key contributing factor to this incidence is the rise of entrepreneurs.”

MAKE MONEY BY MAKING A DIFFERENCE.

When I say, entrepreneur, I am just not talking about the rich and famous people who have established themselves as brands which are larger than life but even the ones who are less-known to the world but who had the courage and heart to rise to the occasion and identify a problem that people were willing to pay money to solve. In many a case, their product or service has made a real difference to a lot of lives.

“Let me tell you this that it’s the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) which accounts for over 95% of establishments in India.”

What we need to always remember is that it’s the ordinary people who complain about problems, but it’s the entrepreneur who sees a solution in every problem.

Therefore, the nation sees entrepreneurs as an epitome of hope, and so do I. If you see India as a nation with a lot of problems, I agree and believe that entrepreneurs are our only hope for resolving them. If you want to make the country a better place, there is only one thing you can do to change it – find a problem you have a solution to. And no one can do it better than an entrepreneur.

I am saying this because if you look closely, there are many issues in the country which are waiting for entrepreneurs like you and me to rise with an idea and make a change. But remember, if you want to make a difference in people’s lives, you have to make a valuable difference to yours first.

A BREEDING GROUND FOR BUSINESS ENTHUSIASTS

Slowly and gradually, India has become a nation of mounting opportunities for entrepreneurs with Government policies becoming more supportive and investors becoming more aware and open-minded.

I as an entrepreneur love to see that someone started from ground zero and is today doing something amazing and has no plans to stop.

India as a nation is flowing with intellectual capital and people whom we have pinned our hopes on and people who have millions of ideas which hold the power to change this nation faster than ever before.

Are you one of them?

Signing off till the next one.
