Speaking on the occasion, NASSCOM President Som Mittal said a large number of entrepreneurs are participating in the two-day conference and NASSCOM will guide them in a proper way.

"In today's conference we had very large number of entrepreneurs, their fund managers and others so it is clear that an eco system has been established. And as NASSCOM we will play our role, our focus is far more now on products as well as on supporting start ups," said Som Mittal.

"We have to provide them the right channels, their visibility, our emerged forum is very active at this and in fact in the last several years we have now started taking only taking small and medium sized enterprises in our delegations and also we have participation from delegation coming from overseas," he added.
