Deputy Chief Minister and Education Minister Manish Sisodia attended the Startup Summit 2022 at Pragati Maidan in Delhi on Saturday.
He interacted with various entrepreneurs from across the country who participated in the summit. Along with other startups, 10 Business Blasters teams of student entrepreneurs from Delhi government schools are also participating in the two-day summit.
In an interaction with entrepreneurs, the deputy chief minister said, "In a country where nearly 40 crore people are either unemployed or belong to the category who earn only half a dollar per day, I see many opportunities for development because of young entrepreneurs. The work entrepreneurs of this country are doing today is no less than building a nation."
He added that events like this Summit are providing an opportunity for them to network and flourish. This will also help in boosting the country's economic growth.
“Whatever problems governments may face, making India No.1 in the world should be their priority. The Kejriwal government firmly believes in this. My heart lies in entrepreneurship and I think that this is what I have been made to do. Interaction with entrepreneurs always inspires me to work harder for the nation to make it No. 1 in the world,” Sisodia said.
He further added that the work today’s startups and entrepreneurs are doing in the country is the solution to rising unemployment in the country and the solution to boosting the country’s economic growth. Entrepreneurs are the ones who will lead the nation towards being a superpower in the world.
Sharing an experience from his childhood, the Deputy Chief Minister said, “When I was in school, I was taught that India is a developing nation. My father and my son were also taught the same thing and this will continue for the next generations too. For over three generations, we have been taught that India is a developing country. India will never be counted among ‘developed countries’ until the mindset of the whole country is directed towards entrepreneurship.”
