This year (2016) The Goa Project features a separate track on Entrepreneurship.
Any form of Entrepreneurship is not easy. But there are specific sectors that are more challenging than the others. If you are trying to build a sustainable organization in a difficult and / or unglamorous market, this is a great opportunity to show case it to the world. Please come and share your success stories, failures, learnings and experiences.
Some examples (but not limited to) are:
-
Creative entrepreneurs in design / performing arts / social impact space
-
Consumer facing business that is self-sustainable and profitable
-
Sectors like infrastructure, waste management, renewable energy, engineering, agri-food..
-
The tragedy of the commons
-
Useful technologies that require behavioural change / have poor adoption curves..
-
Developing markets outside India
-
Difficult to monetize sectors such as music or entertainment
-
Any thing else and more..
The emphasis is not really on the sector or even the problem-opportunity-solution. Tell us how you are cracking the challenges of adoption, sustainability and scalability. Even if it is Work in Progress, there is a lot we can all learn from you.
