Globally, an entrepreneur is one who is willing to bear the risk of a new venture, an innovator who markets the innovations, develops new goods or processes according to market demands. Indian Entrepreneurs (IE) is the wave to spread the spirit of entrepreneurship amongst Indian youth. IE is a brave initiative to inculcate the importance of entrepreneurship amongst the likeminded entrepreneurs. The Indian IT/ITES industry has been one of the great success stories of modern India. An industry that did not exist barely 2 decades ago is now the toast of the nation and the envy of the world. It is arguably the most global of any Indian industry and has created international benchmarks for quality, proving to the world and to ourselves that Indian companies can compete globally and win on quality. It has also demonstrated what can be achieved by unleashing the power of middle class, first generation entrepreneurship in India. The overwhelming majority of companies in this sector were started by entrepreneurs with modest backgrounds and very limited access to capital. In many ways, this industry has helped create the brand of "New India" and served as an inspiration for everyone else.
