Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani on Saturday said the first edition of Vande Bharatam highlighted India's vast entrepreneurial potential, particularly the talent emerging from smaller cities, towns and grassroots communities across the country.
In a post on X, Adani said the inaugural edition of Vande Bharatam concluded with more than 26,000 applications from across India.
"The first edition of Vande Bharatam is over. For me, on this Independence Day there is no better reminder of what India is capable of. 26,000+ applications. Every state represented. Young founders, women entrepreneurs, rural innovators and remarkable problem-solvers from Tier 2 and 3 Bharat," Adani said.
"All of them are winners and their journey has just begun. What stays with me is the extraordinary depth of talent across this country. India's next generation of builders is already here. We just need to find them, back them and give them a platform. Happy Independence Day. Jai Hind," he added.
