A Tribute To The Potent Drivers Of Economy

Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) form the backbone of our industrial sector. Apart from facilitating the growth of the economy and generating massive job opportunities, the segment also functions as a crucial indicator of the entrepreneurial spirit of the population and ease of doing business. These enterprises, which could be operationalised with minimum investment and working capital, have often outshined their capital-intensive counterparts, deploying ingenuity and smart business planning. Many of them have even successfully tapped huge export markets. In the third edition of Destination Kerala SME Excellence Awards, we honour a select group of such SME entrepreneurs who serve as beacons guiding us in our journey towards a developed economy

THE ICONIC ENABLERS OF DISRUPTION

The spirit of entrepreneurship sweeping the country is spurring the youth of Kerala as well to jump on the bandwagon, unleashing their true potential for providing smart solutions. Their unorthodox attitude towards everything in life, moulded and cemented by their firm belief in the unlimited potential of techno-driven capitalism, makes them master enablers of transformation. Be it individual-based or teamdriven, the startups are characterized by their unmatched imaginative prowess and visionary leadership. In the second edition of Destination Kerala Startup Awards, we have honoured some of the brightest minds amongst us who are going to profoundly influence our life through their offbeat ideas. Here are the awardees and their pathbreaking solutions.
