Young Turks Master Class: How to trust your gut and focus on the end game
CNBC-TV18’s Young Turks is India’s longest show on startups and since 2002, week over week we have been putting the spotlight on young entrepreneurs who have been pushing the boundaries to build innovative & sustainable businesses. Most of you who have taken the plunge know that an entrepreneur needs more than just a good idea, timing or even money. Sometimes to turn an innovative business idea into reality one needs guidance. So, over the years we have put together multiple tutorials with the who’s who of the startup world and corporate India via our Young Turks Mentor platform. And now through our brand new TV series – the Young Turks Masterclass – we are taking this a step further and expanding the range of mentorship.
In this episode of YT Master Class we have joined hands with Matrix Partners India. Part of the Boston based venture capital firm that manages $4 billion in assets across US, China and India – Matrix Partners India was founded in 2006 by founder of Bazee.com, Avnish Bajaj.
