On 13-14 January, Mumbai will host Entreprenet 2012, a world convention organised by Dimensions and Kanara Entrepreneurs Global, two Christian organisations, to discuss human rights, finance, business development, technology and customer relations to boost India’s growth and development.
Mumbai (AsiaNews) – More than 500 business people will take part in Entreprenet 2012, a global convention for Christian entrepreneurs and professionals set for 13-14 January at the International The Lalit Hotel in Mumbai. Organised by Dimensions and Kanara Entrepreneurs Global (KE Global), the meeting will provide Indian Christian entrepreneurs an opportunity to network and interact with their international counterparts for mutual growth and development.

Created in western India, Dimensions brings together Christian entrepreneurs and professionals with a dream to create wealth for its members and the community by pooling and harnessing resources and nurturing each other’s growth in a spirit of transparency, commitment, excellence and trust.

Dimensions’ visions is shared by KE Global, a non-profit mutual benefit corporation of Christian entrepreneurs from Kanara, a predominantly Christian region in the state of Karnataka, with chapters in Bangalore and Mangalore, as well as in the Middle East and North America.

“The story of India is unfolding and is at a dramatic stage’” Dimensions president and founder Freddy Mendonca (pictured). “The conference will feature prominent speakers from India and abroad. Speakers apart, the presence of mentors and especially financers who bring diverse management skills to the table will be a highlight of this conference. [. . .] The focal areas to be addressed by an internationally esteemed panel of speakers will be HR, finance, business development, technology, as well as customer relations, customer satisfaction and success stories.”

What is more, “we will be pleasantly surprised, not too far into the future, to see how, through self-help and not charity, many enterprising members of the community will experience a quantum jump in their social and financial status. [. . .] We hope to make the convention a matchmaking exercise.”

The keynote address, Mendonca said, “sums up the spirit of the conference: Emerging India – The Growth Story. With improving domestic and entrepreneurial environment and favourable investment climate, India is expected to expand over the next five years, even as developed economies face deceleration... says a survey. India will continue to grow and we must grow with India.”

For those who attend, benefits “could range from ideas to expand businesses to other territories, to those who want to sell their business, to those looking at buying new businesses, to those seeking opportunities for managing similar businesses, to create bigger entities, to those who are looking at raising money to grow their businesses.”
