can be a way of doing business – whether it be starting one, sustaining one, or
making one grow.

The Holy Grail of Entrepreneurship is building businesses and

getting businesses to grow and develop. The fabric of the
conference is accordingly woven around 7 I’s which we feel are
critical to the lifecycle of Entrepreneurship right from a Startup
to becoming a World–Class Organization. Inspire Ideate
Entrepreneur India Summit is aimed at helping entrepreneurs and owner managers
and Professionals in India to harness and develop their entrepreneurial ambitions.
