Start-up City is about Bangalore and its booming software
sector. It looks at how ten successful first-generation
entrepreneurs got to where they are, what they learned
along the way and, ultimately, why they chose Bangalore as
their start-up city. In the process, it explores questions like:
What makes successful entrepreneurs tick? Is it in their nature, or is it a function of how
they were nurtured? What compels them to engage in unconventional, high-risk ventures?
For anyone interested in Indian entrepreneurship, the struggles and eventual successes
of these entrepreneurs will make for interesting and relevant reading. It will most benefit
young and ambitious entrepreneurs who may be looking for inspirational, yet accessible,
examples to follow on their own journeys.
