Just a couple of days back, I was invited at BITS Pilani (One of India’s premier) Institutes for learning, at their fest which promoted the theme Energizing Entrepreneurship!
Entrepreneurship has always fascinated me, it defines passion for me. Its like taking a deep breath and venturing out feeling fresh air at your face and looking at opportunities all around you 
Delivering a session, well, I was attending one yesterday at a management school in New Delhi. So there was this old man almost in his 70′s (a retired Air Force wing commander) who was there to teach Entrepreneurship. A class of almost 20 participants and well he started. The session was scheduled for a period of 1.5 hours and yes it stretched almost a couple of minutes beyond the stipulated time.
Why? It’s all because of the TATA NANO!
To all the examples, which the teacher took in the class there was just one answer: TATA NANO!
Before I write further, I must confess that I have personally alwasy respected Mr. Ratan Tata for whatever he is! The man kept his word, its NOT ABOUT the NANO, its about a man keeping his word, a man seeing a dream and empowering millions around him to see one!
These are dreams which take shape. These are dreams of change.
THIS IS THE CHANGE!
Coming back to the lecture now, I was pretty amazed when every example shared in the room about all the topics which are covered in the text book of entrepreneurship, well, NANO fits them all!
- Innovation
- Competition
- Dreams
- Passion … and the list goes on
Size does matter huh?!
I congratulate Mr. Ratan Tata and urge every Indian to go and see dreams with Open Eyes!
I personally extend my heartfelt wishes to a man who saw a dream with a car manufacturing company just a decade old. A man who is not getting much margins on the NANO he is selling. A man who fought all odds and well, at the end of the day, he has proven to the world, INDIA HAS ARRIVED! with a Bang!
