Entry to this year's Business Plan Showcase is now closed.
Entrepreneurship as a way of doing business, not just for startups - Although the Idea and Business Plan Presentations will be focused on start ups and early stage businesses, an important objective is to educate the entire community, including established businesses and individuals who currently work or will work in traditional corporate positions. This educational process will emphasize the critical importance of the entrepreneurial mindset and approach to business as a way of developing and launching high growth businesses within traditional business environments.
The objective of TiE-ISB Connect is to bring together all the elements necessary for real venture creation. Our mission is to:
- Provide a platform, together with important tools, resources and networking opportunities, to assist all aspiring entrepreneurs, in taking their first steps on their entrepreneurial journey
- Facilitate the creation of new ventures with potential for high growth and a global mindset
- Engage the venture-support community to rally around entrepreneurial innovation and provide the necessary eco-system for its development
- Generate a positive economic impact by encouraging and nurturing high potential entrepreneurship together with a vibrant private equity market.
The Tie-ISB Connect 2008 is organized by the Indian School of Business in partnership with TiE Hyderabad Chapter. Each year, entrant teams from around the country present their plans, while gaining valuable professional feedback on their ventures.
