India is a land of opportunity and the conference attendees will have a vital stake in it.   The venture capitalists, corporate executives, entrepreneurs, academicians and other innovators who will gather at TiECON from around the world are very interested in hearing your vision on how they can invest, partner or discover talent in India and link together for an even better future.    TiE members and its affiliates worldwide have been involved for decades in advancing technical, functional and managerial skills in India. Their collaborations now extend to university curriculums and students. However, questions like the future of governance or infrastructure and other challenges have never been answered with clarity and with diversity of opinion. You can provide such insights directly.

Though the name TiE, originally "The Indus Entrepreneurs," signified the ethnic South Asian or Indus roots of the founders, TiE now stands for Talent, Ideas and Enterprise . TiE is the largest non profit organization of its kind.


TiE innovators and entrepreneurs raise over 5% of the US venture capital and have created over 250 billion dollars in wealth for investors and community
