Back from Entrepneurship Summmit 2010 at IITB
So I am back from Mumbai after attending eSummit 2010 at IIT Bombay. Normally I tends to avoid such summits due to high noise ratio as well as because of time wastage in traveling but still this time I felt, lets go and see and it turned out to be great decision, I spent the full day at vulture’s nest where 12 “startups” were looking to raise some funding from group of angel investors.
The event though was supposed to be started at 10:30 started at 11:10 because few guys came late which also meant less time for people like me to spend on other sessions, anyway
Things which I loved about the eSummit 2010
1. It was fairly well organized, though many (including me) failed to find the rooms where the seminars were taking place initially
2. Lunch was great.
3. I think such events are really good for college students as they see fellow students and people of their age launching their own companies and Entrepneurship is Infectious ![]()
4. They provided networking option too using which any attendee could talk to anyone, I am not sure if other such summits are following this but if they are not, they should.
There is similar eSummit which is taking place at IIT Delhi on 17th of Feb (it is 3 day even I think), you can check it and see if it works for you. There is another startup event being organized in Bangalore unplugged, which I will be attending as it looks promising.
