Namaskaram,Insight Online 2021 will focus on empowering the entrepreneur to take advantage of emerging possibilities in this decade.

Every sector of the economy is going through fundamental changes. These changes are going to be as significant as the industrial revolution. This decade will see the transition of transportation from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles, migration from the centralized power grids to microgrids powered by solar, wind and batteries, acceptance and adoption of plant-based meats, the adoption of digital printing, virtual and augmented reality in manufacturing and the creation of new self-healing materials.

This is the right time for entrepreneurs to upgrade their skills to ride a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity — understand the components of accelerated change, learn from entrepreneurs who have harnessed rapid market transformation to build new business models, seek the help of a business leader to discuss how best to navigate your organization in a dynamic industry environment and more importantly build the network to capture these possibilities and bring them to life.
