Inspiring Agribusiness Start-ups - A Seminar by ICRISAT

Oct. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Hyderabad, The Agri-Business Incubation (ABI) Program of ICRISAT as part of the NIABI Best Practices Seminar Series on Entrepreneurship & Innovation is organizing a seminar for entrepreneurs, “Inspiring Agribusiness start-ups” at ICRISAT, Patancheru on October 12, 2011 at 0930hrs. The seminar will be broadcast live through video conferencing to 10 other agribusiness incubators under the Network of Indian Agri-Business Incubators (NIABI). At the interactive seminar, ABI-ICRISAT will host three successful entrepreneurs who followed their own definition of success and proved it to the world, “if you can dream it.... you can do it.”

The three speakers are Dr Dinabandhu Sahoo of Project Chilika who was a marine biologist and who trained villagers in Orissa to ‘farm the ocean’, Mr Satyajit Singh of Shakti Sudha Industries who took on the challenge of commercializing makhana and by doing so brought benefits to thousands of marginalized farmers and Mr Samar Gupta of Trikaya Agriculture which started off as a hobby but now is a flourishing business that is ever expanding the frontiers of ‘what can be grown’ in India.
It will indeed be a thought-provoking day for every participant who is driven by a passion for entrepreneurship and wants to start a venture on their own in agriculture.
