Fireside chats and keynote addresses at TechSparks Mumbai unlock successes of long-term and serial entrepreneurs, leadership lessons during times of turbulence, and resilience strategies during the ‘funding winter’.
Case studies, product showcases, and deep dive sessions unpack hard-earned lessons from first-time entrepreneurs, while workshops provide valuable insights on fundraising and harnessing AI.
Special thematic sessions address gaming, employee fitness, sextech, and Web 3. Future-oriented sessions dig into talent strategies for tomorrow, financial inclusion at scale, and strategies of policymakers in different states of India.
Another highlight is The Pitch Fest, a large-scale platform for startup founders to present their business ideas to a live audience, investors, and a jury. Storytelling as an effective means of communication is a theme cutting across the conference.
Now, what have you done today to not just dream big but do big and scale big?
