    TV9 Network and SAP India have joined hands to help homegrown businesses in being self-reliant. They have announced the launch of Mentors of Global Bharat series and Dare2Dream Awards 2021. These two programmes were announced at the ‘Enabling Atmanirbhar Bharat’ forum.

     

    Said Raktim Das, Chief Growth Officer (Television & Digital), TV9 Network: “SME Sector is indeed the growth locomotive of Indian business & economy. They provide the critical depth to the manufacturing and service sectors, foster entrepreneurship and generate substantial employment. Enabling and empowering them to build an Atmanirbhar Bharat is an imperative.”

     

    Commenting on the programme, Paul Marriott, President, SAP, Asia Pacific Japan, added: “We have seen unprecedented adverse impact of the pandemic on business and economy – with supply chains being disrupted and demand drying up. There is no playbook or prescription that can guide businesses to emerge from such impact and resurrect themselves rapidly. In the many interactions that we have had with our SME customers we realised that many entrepreneurs felt the need to interact with mentors who have successfully traversed the same path before. Peer to peer learning and recognition of digital led innovation are both very important in these times and any platform that facilitates these, is a step in the right direction.”

    TV9 Network in association with technology major SAP India has launced a series titled Leaders of Global Bharat to turn the spotlight on business mentors of home-grown firms. Airing every Sunday at 11:30m am on news channel TV9 Bharatvarsh, the series will showcase success stories of over 150 entrepreneurs who have the potential to galvanise and inspire the youth and budding entrepreneurs of this country.

     

    Explaining the rationale behind the series, Raktim Das, COO, TV9 Studio, said: “There’s never been a more apt time to look at robust leadership lessons that have steered businesses through these extraordinary times. The Covid-19 induced New Normal has sharpened the focus on business leaders who continue to inspire us, mentor us. The series is also an attempt to showcase that an Atmanirbhar Bharat is in the realms of possibilities. I thank SAP India for making this possible.”

     

    Added Krishnan Chatterjee, CCO and Head of Marketing, SAP India Subcontinent: “Recently, SAP India launched Global Bharat programme to provide MSME access to global marketplace, digital skilling their workforce and transform business processes. We are happy to partner with TV9 Network to highlight these stories of grit and determination for emerging and existing entrepreneurs, share our narrative of Hope, Resilience, Innovation and most importantly inspiration to digitally transform their businesses.”
