Global Entrepreneurship Summit India 2017
The eighth edition of the Global Entrepreneurship Summit 2017 is all set to take place on 28 November 2017 in Hyderabad. This three day summit will also see Ivanka Trump leading the United States delegation.
Hosted by the United States of America along with the Republic of India, the summit has been flooded with applications. Around 44,000 Indian entrepreneurs applied to participate in the summit that currently has only 400 available slots. 800 slots have been allotted for entrepreneurs from USA and around the world. Close to 74 entrepreneurs from Telangana have been selected for the summit.
Highlighting the theme Women First, Prosperity for All, this year’s summit will focus on supporting women entrepreneurs and fostering economic growth globally. First conceived by former US President Barack Obama, GES aims at creating an environment that empowers innovators, particularly women, to take their ideas to the next level.
The summit will also hold sessions, master classes and workshops by global experts along with networking events and keynote speeches from prominent entrepreneurs. According to the official website, GES 2017 will present a unique opportunity to connect and establish meaningful partnerships amongst entrepreneurs, investors and ecosystem supporters. In an attempt to inspire the culture of entrepreneurship, the summit also launched the ‘Road to GES’ initiative which aims to build and engage entrepreneurs through events from September to November and beyond.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a meeting in the Philippines said the GES would help in “showcasing innovation and collaboration between India and the United States.” With a bilateral trade of about $ 115 billion, India is already a major market for the United States. The summit aims at strengthening this relationship while encouraging innovation and collaboration, with a special focus on emerging nations from Africa and Asia.
With just ten days to go for the Summit, police officials in Hyderabad are on high alert. Special security measures and arrangements have been made in anticipation of Ivanka Trump’s visit to the city. According to media reports, Federal Bureau of Investigation and Special Protection Group high officials also visited Hyderabad to observe the security arrangements.
Bhavish Aggarwal has sold Ola Electric shares worth about ₹325 crore over three consecutive trading sessions, primarily to fully repay a promoter-level loan of ₹260 crore and release all pledged promoter shares. Despite the stake sale, he continues to hold a significant shareholding of over 34 percent in Ola Electric, and the company has clearly stated that there is no change in promoter control or his long-term commitment to the business. This one-time, limited monetisation at the promoter’s personal level is positioned as a structural clean-up rather than a signal of reduced confidence in the company.
The transactions, executed through open-market bulk deals, included an initial sale of about 2.6 crore shares worth roughly ₹92 crore at an average price of ₹34.99 per share, followed by additional trades of around ₹142 crore and ₹90 crore, taking the total sale value to approximately ₹324–325 crore. As a result, Aggarwal’s stake has fallen by a little over 2 percent, while all previously pledged promoter shares about 3.93 percent of Ola Electric’s equity are being released, removing the overhang and risk typically associated with pledged stock. The company has also clarified that these deals do not involve any capital raise or dilution by Ola Electric itself, which is important for investors tracking promoter stake and governance.
The share sale came at a time when Ola Electric’s stock had been under pressure, even hitting an all-time closing low amid concerns around growth, competition and heavy promoter selling. However, once the company confirmed that the stake sale was complete and all promoter-level pledges would be cleared, the stock rebounded sharply, gaining around 9–10 percent as markets welcomed the removal of this technical overhang. For investors, the focus is now expected to shift back to Ola Electric’s core fundamentals EV sales growth, margins, and market-share performance in India’s two-wheeler EV segment while the reduced promoter debt risk and continued high promoter holding offer some comfort on long-term alignment.
Kuku FM’s parent company, Mebigo Labs, has hired leading investment banks to prepare for a 200 million dollar IPO in India, marking a major milestone for the country’s digital audio ecosystem. The Mumbai-based company has reportedly appointed Kotak Mahindra Capital, Axis Bank and Morgan Stanley’s India unit to manage the proposed share sale, which is likely to be launched on Indian stock exchanges once key regulatory steps are completed. This move signals strong intent to tap public markets and test investor appetite for subscription-led regional audio platforms in India.
The planned IPO proceeds are expected to help Kuku FM expand its content library, strengthen its regional language offerings and invest in technology to enhance user experience. With a focus on Hindi, Marathi, Tamil and other Indian languages, Kuku FM aims to capture the fast-growing audience in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities seeking affordable audiobooks, courses and storytelling content. The funds could also provide additional firepower for marketing, partnerships and product innovation, helping the platform compete more aggressively in India’s crowded digital entertainment and creator economy landscape.
Founded in 2018, Kuku FM has built a subscription-driven business model and has reportedly scaled to millions of paying users, backed by multiple funding rounds from prominent investors. Its decision to pursue a 200 million dollar IPO positions it as one of the first major Indian audio platforms to attempt a public listing, potentially paving the way for other podcast and niche content startups to follow. As the IPO process moves forward, Kuku FM’s performance in the public markets will be closely watched as a key indicator of how investors value regional, knowledge-first audio platforms in India’s booming digital economy.
Zerodha experienced a challenging FY25, as its revenue fell 11.5% to ₹8,847 crore and net profit dropped 22.9% to ₹4,237 crore. This decline reflects tougher regulatory conditions, lower trading volumes, and increased operational costs in the brokerage market, all of which impacted core earning segments for the company.
Despite these headwinds, Zerodha improved its operating margin to 63.78% and built up significant cash reserves, reporting ₹22,679 crore in bank balances. Salary expenses and director remuneration increased, but disciplined cost controls helped the company maintain profitability and a debt-free balance sheet. The drop in active clients and increased compliance costs further contributed to the profit contraction.
Looking ahead, Zerodha’s resilience is supported by its robust cash position and operational efficiency. Maintaining steady margins, diversifying product offerings, and investing in technology positions the company to withstand future regulatory fluctuations and changing market sentiment reinforcing its status as one of India’s leading brokerage firms.

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
