Emerging Trends in Entrepreneurship
Starting a new business is an attempt to address a demand in an economically viable manner. It is also well understood that a demand may not be satisfied by a single organization. Given the diverse demographic strata in the markets, several organizations strive to address the demand for a given good. Therefore, it can be said that a demand would have entrepreneurial ventures clustered around it.
Naturally, if the demand for a product and/or service is recent and large enough, the cluster of organizations would grow faster; displaying a trend in the type of entrepreneurial ventures. To exemplify, let us consider the emergence of social technologies. The need to interact is perhaps the most basic social need of a human being. Yet, this need earlier was confined to one to one communications (for example, through emails) or personal interactions. The so-called social media has provided platforms that allow users to communicate with the most distance audiences in an efficient manner. We today see a horde of social media platforms that look to engage users.
Unfortunately, the success of early exploiters like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn remains unrivaled The point is that it is not enough to spot an unmet demand. It is equally important to develop an economically viable way to exploit it.
Most venture capitalists are often interested in riding the success by funding start-ups that look to leverage a new demand. It is therefore important for a budding entrepreneur to anticipate such demand trends. In this panel, by allowing the audience to engage with the venture capitalists, we hope that entrepreneurs can identify emergent trends that could be potentially exploited through innovative business models
Challenges for Young Entrepreneurships
Entrepreneurship is as much a social phenomenon as economic. Thus, success of entrepreneurship depends on several contextual attributes. Broadly, these factors could be classified at four levels.
·The most granular level is perhaps the individual competencies. Commonly cited individual competencies include risk taking abilities, financial acumen, and leadership styles. For example, it is often observer that founder's personality leaves an everlasting imprint on the organization.
·The next level is organizational. As entrepreneurial ventures grow, the organizational context becomes increasingly complex. For example, an organization may venture into different geographical locations or different product/service offerings. In such changing and complex context, several factors influence its success. In fact, an entire discipline of strategic management aims to assess the firm's performance as a function of firm characteristics such as size, age, and structure.
·The third level is industrial. Every industry follows different trajectories of evolution. Some evolve radically while others evolve more incrementally. Each path, however, poses its own set of challenges that influence the survival and success of new organizations. Examples of industrial attributes include high cost of materials, talent crunch, and rate of innovation.
·The final level is political. Most organizations have to confirm to a set of rules based on their geographic locations. When such rules change due to reasons like change in the government or global economic shocks, their impact on the entrepreneurial ventures becomes evident. Recent economic meltdown and changing investment norms are clear instances of political attributes that influenced the start-up organizations
Any domain of business is lifeless without INNOVATION. And so Human Resources.
Google famously forces employees to spend 20% of their time doing whatever they want. The purpose of Google €™s employment policy is to foster an innovative corporate culture that reflects the spirit of a start-up.
"240 million working people will be added to our working population in the next 15-20 years. With time we feel as time goes we get older but here, relative to demography we will get younger with time. The demography is such that we will have more younger people to work with." - Mr. Suresh Tripathi, VP (HR), Tata Steel

Please treat internship as your learning ground. Irrespective of what project, which company and which industry you are working for, try and observe and learn the basics, such as -
1. Corporate behavior
2. Reporting relationships
3. Interpersonal relationships and team dynamics
4. Interdependence of functions and collaborative efforts - sales with marketing, HR with finance/facilities etc
5. Observe differences / uniqueness of theory vs practical/real world.
To get any personalized advice you can connect FIIB alumnis to answers to your queries. @FIIBIndia
