Inspiration

Budding Entrepreneurs A. Many aspiring entrepreneurs around who try to startup their own idea. Among them, there are many who do it to improve their financial situation. B. Many of them have tried to pitch, be it through hackathons or to organisations while many more with brilliant ideas simply do not get a platform to do so. For instance, naming 3 successful startups alone in a third world country probably something no one can do so in this hall simply due to the nature of the lack of exposure for these startups.

Aspiring Investors A. Many students who are interested in investing, have some knowledge in startups, and are interested in investing. Most of these students, who do so in hopes of improving their financial situation, have little financial power.
