New Delhi [India], April 29 (ANI/PNN): From innovative startups to game-changing enterprises, these 8 emerging entrepreneurs have carved their own paths to success. Their journeys as leaders offer valuable insights and inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs looking to make their mark in the business world.
Throughout my 20+ year corporate career and entrepreneurial journey, I've gained a deep understanding of e -commerce and digital marketing. Successfully leading teams and projects has enabled me to identify opportunities and develop effective strategies for growth and profitability.
As a co-founder of several digital startups, including Dealsnprice.com, Finkred.com, Giftsonair.com, and Zvesta.com, I have invaluable experience in building and scaling businesses in the digital space.
My executive program from Harvard Business School-Naspers Academy for E-commerce Eco-Systems and Strategies, coupled with my academic background in management and PR, equipped me with the skills necessary to navigate the complexities of e-commerce. I create marketing campaigns that engage and convert customers, driving sales and revenue growth.
My passion for brand creation and marketing led me to venture into the grooming industry and found a strong gap in the market for men's and women's grooming products. With our new brands, American Grey in men's grooming and Lissy Moco in women's grooming, we aim to provide high-quality, affordable grooming products to consumers across India. Our focus on effectiveness and affordability positions us well to capture a significant share of the Indian grooming market.

Adirag aims to connect artisans with their world of age-old, culture-driven handicrafts to meet the polished and fashion-forward demand for bespoke wedding favors.
In little over six years, we have bootstrapped our way and currently cater to customers throughout India, as well as the South Asian diaspora in the US, UK, Singapore, and the Middle East. This includes Bollywood celebrities and renowned Indian influencers. I am known by many identities, such as that of a spiritualist, humanist, entrepreneur, and an aficionado of culture and arts. However, I am more prominently a believer that hard work and an optimistic attitude towards your business is the key to success.

Jatin Ahluwalia, Founder and Managing Director - Seven3Sports Private Limited, Gurgaon
My journey with Seven3Sports has been incredible as we have pursued uncharted territory. Our story began with obtaining the IPL Global Mobile rights, bringing cricket closer to fans. Our association with the legendary Sachin Tendulkar to launch his digital assets was particularly memorable, as was our sub-licensed broadcast deal that brought IPL to TV homes for the first time in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.
We made history by broadcasting the FIFA World Cup matches across South Asian countries, reaching over half a billion people. Later, we launched Bundesliga on the digital platform in India, another first-ever accomplishment. We also dreamed of Nepal's first-ever T20 official cricket league, and despite challenges, controversies, and biased campaigns from the local media, we successfully launched NepalT20, entertaining millions of cricket fans worldwide.
As an entrepreneur, I learned to remain strong in the face of negative publicity and racism, standing firm and pursuing my dreams. We must be brave, fearless, and resolute to create innovative business models that cause creative disruption and pursue our goals despite any obstacles that may arise.
