Way to Transform Shridhar University Rajasthan Celebrates World Entrepreneurship Day

April 22, 2010 - PRLog -- According to Management Guru C K Prahalad “We need to connect the poor through entrepreneurship, which enables wealth creation through transparent and legitimate means. Entrepreneurship, more than subsidies or philanthropy, holds the key to poverty alleviation in India."

April 16, 2010, World Entrepreneurship Day (WED) is an internationally-recognized day for the celebration, education, and inspiration of entrepreneurs and innovators. The mission of WED is to remind the world that it is entrepreneurs who have consistently and courageously led economies in recession back to prosperity and growth through innovation and job creation.

To know about new areas ripe for entrepreneurship one must take inspiration from Beth Comstock, Chief Marketing Officer and SVP of GE quote “ I would love to be a 30 year old in India or Brazil right now. There’s so much going on with the economy … there are huge opportunities in energy, transportation, health care…”
