E Week is going to be one of the things that back me up in my life, like a filing cabinet with 10 to 15 of my life's most brilliant experiences stacked there. And on top of that I have written the belief: "I can do whatever I want."
My message for all the guys out there - people like us - is to take action. That's going to be the key for India right now. We know exactly how much India needs us right now. I think it's just about going out there and making it happen. Boom! |

| I feel E Week is all about awareness and enthusiasm. In this one week the entire country is celebrating this concept. That itself is great feeling. Last year, as soon as E Week got over, for one or two weeks after E Week there was ambitious planning for this year's E Week. So that way enthusiasm got generated. |

| E Week is like a movement around entrepreneurship; it's like a week of awakening. I would like to see it becoming a one-on-one networking platform for aspiring entrepreneurs, as well as for students from across the country. That |
