Speaking to presspersons on the sidelines of Youth to Business Forum 2010 organised by the AIESEC Manipal University here on Saturday, he said the passion within us should be ignited and allowed to grow. “Don’t do something which you do not understand.”

Stating that entrepreneurs are born, he said “for me, business is like a game. If you lose, you can become better players in future.”
Later, addressing the students, he said that focusing on core competencies will add more value.

He said multiple mentors add more dimensions and solutions to the problems in business.

Adding value to a customer should be the priority of an entrepreneur.
Ramesh said no business plans are perfect. One need to evolve as one goes. Gut feel will impact most decision one makes as an entrepreneur.
Another speaker, SREI Sahaj e-village CEO Sanjay Panigrahi said innovations can be in terms of new service or products, new delivery methods, new markets and new forms of organisation.

The innovations create demand which in turn results in the creation of wealth. Sahaj is operating 30,000 common service centres in six states.
