Non-stop 60 hour entrepreneurship summit aims to help businesses bounce back from COVID-19 – News


A 3-day, 60-hour marathon summit, the “TiE Entrepreneurship Summit” scheduled to be held from Dec 8, 2020 is a mega virtual platform where budding entrepreneurs will get a chance to restructure their way to overcoming the COVID-19 crisis.

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the entrepreneurship scene hard across the world, & destabilized the entire ecosystem. Funding opportunities, too, dried up.

Nevertheless, one thing that stands out about the entrepreneurial community is the never-say-die attitude. Successful entrepreneurs have a history of overcoming harshest of crises & resurrecting their companies from the edge of doom. Be it the dotcom bubble crash of 2000 or the financial recession of 2008, the entrepreneurs that lived through were the ones who successfully rebuilt their foundations.

Now in 2020 amid the COVID-19 induced economic slump, the entrepreneurial community is again coming together to help each other bounce back.

One such event to re-arm tomorrow’s leaders is the TiE (The Indus Entrepreneurs) Global Summit 2020 – a 3-Day Marathon Virtual Event aimed to empower business leaders virtually when the tradition ‘physical’ approaches are falling apart.

Attending entrepreneurs will get the opportunity to enhance their revenues by meeting prospective customers, attract funding, onboard mentors & board members besides learning from the top business minds of the world. Businesses facing a cash crunch will be pitching their ideas to 200+ investors, including the world’s top-100 VCs, & angel investment firms.

An interesting concept of speed dating will be unveiled where entrepreneurs will have 3 minutes each to pitch an idea to a group of investors. These industry behemoths have investment portfolios of US$10 million to $50 million.

The summit has introduced a pioneering business-matchmaking technology through the power of artificial intelligence, which will identify & select entrepreneurs & fix their meetings with other businessmen in the same domain.
