I really like this article. Although i am still at a stage where i m contemplating on what business idea out of the 366 ideas i have will work, this is surely better understanding of what will sell and what the VC’s will buy to put in their money.

Thanks, Look forwards for more information.

I am myself in exactly that situation. I have a BRIGHT idea with a huge ROI, great potential, and I know that it is going to be BIG, when properly implemented. I just dont know how to get in touch with VCs or Angel Investors or some of the millionnaires or billionaires in India.

Excellent Post!

I particularly agree with raising more capital in the early stages. A recession hit US might have repercussions in the Indian markets as well, and VCs might not be as generous an year or two from now, as they are at present. Moreover, most of the VCs fund startups which are are operating on already proven ideas, and this too happens after the company has grown a bit. A good early stage investment for a brand new idea would certainly be a better choice in the present economic scenario.
