Inauguration of iCreate

Recently, me and my friend attended an Entrepreneurial event held by Gov of Gujarat at Gandhinagar.

Launch of iCreate - International Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology by CM Narendra Modi.
Many people belonging to Entrepreneurship motivation were present at event.

Such as,
Narayan Murthy - Infosys founder
Rashmi Bansal - Author of Stay hungry stay foolish

Along with that more than 3,000 students and budding entrepreneurs were present.
It was a wonderful experience being in event.
