Startup Saturday, on the 13th of this month, saw an overwhelming number of over 500 start-ups, listening to start-up pitches, an investor’s panel on how to raise funds, and Sumit Jain, (Co-founder and CEO, Commonfloor)’s take on the growing trends.

Sumit Jain on entrepreneurship

To begin with, Sumit said that entrepreneurship is not only about people leaving their comfortable jobs and work on an idea; it is about what drives you. “From personal experience, I can say that you can do what you want, but it all depends on how badly you want to do it,” said Sumit.  He added that while he had several options, including being part of the family business, he chose to start up.
