Shantanu,
Am sure young Punekars must have been hugely benefited by your rich experience.
With the shrinking job opprtunities, I think the educated youth should seriously think about developing entrepreneurship skills…The events like this will surely motivate them.
Re: Could anything have been more exciting?!
On a lighter note, I hope the event was not an attempt to keep young love-birds away from celebrating the v-day :-).
Btw, I read quite a few news items from Pune about this.
Thanks,
@ PS: You are absolutely right…Entrepreneurship is the key to solving a lot of our problems…
I hope more and more amongst us take to this route.
Shantanu,
Thanks for the response despite your hectic schedule here in India.
Interestingly, I came across this initiative by Economic Times (http://ideas.economictimes.com) called The Power of Ideas. I thought it is on similar lines of what you did in Pune. They are inviting raw ideas from people and financial experts, investors, entrepreneurs will review, mentor, counsel and help people polish and refine their ideas so that they make a good business proposition.
There is a group of investors who will eventually fund the selected ideas.
I found the initiative really good.
