CEO, Let Me Know
If at first, the idea is not absurd, then
           there is no hope for it

                             - Albert Einstein
Technology is Supreme

The Beginning – We have come a long way

Advancements – Internet has changed lives
Web Technology
Time is the new metric for everything

You can do things you never imagined before on
web

Information overload will continue to happen,
effective solutions will set new dimensions
Start-ups are evolving
Innovative and low cost solutions in different
sector

Customer satisfaction is the prime factor for
success

Competitive but with tremendous potential,
some sectors have very few players

                     Sachin and Binny Bansal, Flipkart
How is Technology helping?
Software solutions exist for every process in
SCM

Helps in focusing on driving sales and operations

Mobile technology is revolutionizing things
Social Media - The new ‘F’ word
Social Media
Redefined networking, connectivity and
entertainment

Community building is the key

Giving rise to other start-up ideas
D,G,L,O,Q…would also change!
Why should I care? I just love FB 

Is there a scope for more?

It’s a viral and addictive innovation, will not stop
unless web dies
How are start-ups eyeing it?
Economical and budgeted marketing

Low maintenance cost, huge returns

Platform may change, users would return
What’s Next?
Growing internet penetration

Social Media Marketing has tremendous scope

Analytics to be made stronger

Web happenings are unpredictable
How easy it is to START – UP?
Idea is NOT the key factor, Execution is

Easy to start, difficult to sustain

You have to sell what consumers want, not what
you want to

Use your passion for the masses
How easy it is to START – UP?

Blend of technology and social media

Market Cognition, Strategy Building and most
important – “A Smart Team”
