At TiE Global Summit 2022, we created an awesome space to nurture conversations & connections with founders & industry leaders at our #KalaariConnect Lounge.
Across the 3 days of the summit, we had many insightful discussions on India’s ascent as a global economic force & epicentre for entrepreneurship with the many founders, ecosystem enablers and investors dropped in to meet us . It was truly wonderful to renew bonds with old friends and create many new connections.
A highlight for us was the get together with our #KalaariFamily founders. It was an opportunity for our founders to learn from one another as well as industry leaders, while having a lot of fun along the way. Our gratitude to TiE for creating such a vibrant platform to foster entrepreneurship and give back to the community.
