4 reasons why startups should attend the Vodafone ‘Think Big, Scale Right’ meet-up

This story is sponsored by Vodafone.

In the world of startups, networking ranks right up there. Ask any successful entrepreneur, and he or she is sure to tell you how important it was for them in their early days to get inspiration, support and mentorship from those in the industry.

A chance to learn tricks of the trade from the ones who’ve made it big, or to interact with people like you braving the same kind of challenges, is exciting.

Vodafone is bringing one such opportunity to you with its ‘Think Big, Scale Right’ meet-up. The event, being held in Bengaluru and Mumbai, is Vodafone’s next big step to drive growth in India’s startup ecosystem. In the last year alone, they’ve partnered with several incubators and conducted e-commerce summits along with ICICI.

The telecommunications giant has been working with startup unicorns for five years now. Vodafone maintains that engaging and partnering with startups in the early stage will give them the opportunity to scale right, as their growth story moves forward sequentially. In fact, the meet-up will focus on how startups that are currently in the early stage or the growth stage can move ahead with their operations.

The event is being held in Bengaluru on March 1, 2017. Register now!
