Siliconeer<\/b> youth reporter Vansh A<\/b>. Gupta <\/b>was at #TiEcon2015 and interviewed various start-up entrepreneurs. (The interviews are available as part of the #TiEcon2015 video on the @Siliconeer mobile app. Scan the QR code above to view<\/i>). The sheer variety of subjects and ideas that were floating at @TiEcon2015 and how these young entrepreneurs were beating the odds to come out as a promising venture is an inspiration in itself for the youth who are looking to start as entrepreneurs themselves. Welcome to Silicon Valley![\/alert]<\/p>\n

The Indus Entrepreneurs (#TiE) is now an important presence in many countries, encouraging innovation, business, technology and a great deal more through annual TiEcon conventions. But it has to be noted that TiE started in Silicon Valley (#TiESV), California and that the convention held here still remains the largest annual event of its kind in the world. The TiE Silicon Valley Chapter has been called the \u201cMother Ship\u201d of South Asian entrepreneurship. It is from here that the mainly Indian (many graduates of IIT campuses) and some Pakistani technologists ventured out of the ranks of being mere employees and stepped into the world of business to found their own companies, to become a source of strength to others who followed in their footsteps. Today TiE is about all kinds\u2019 business entrepreneurship and is not restricted to technology related to computers alone, writes Ras H. Siddiqui.<\/b><\/p>\n
