Description

Entrepreneurship in the Global Economy

Technology has made it possible for all the 6 billion people in the world to be a part of the Global economy. In the new economy, Value creation has the same value irrespective of where it is created. This phenomenon is creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs everywhere in the world. The exponential innovation in Technologies and business processes will change the way we live in next ten years as much as it has in the last few decades. Every change is led by an entrepreneur. Therefore, Entrepreneurship will play a central role in the Global Economy.

Dr. Deshpande will discuss his own entrepreneurial experiences and talk about how Entrepreneurship is now a career choice as opposed to a one time heroic act. The speaker will discuss how MIT has nurtured an echo system that encourages, supports, trains and inspires the entrepreneurs.
