Executive Summary

About TiECON 2021
TiE Hubli hosted it's first YUVA TiECON on Jan 30th, 6th Women Conclave on Feb 27th and 13th
TiECON on Feb 28th of 2021. While YUVA TiECON was focussed on the Youth or the future
Entrepreneurs in making, the Women Conclave was focussed on Women Entrepreneurs and
TiECON's focus was on all kinds and stages of entrepreneurs. Interestingly, all 3 have emergred
as the biggest business conferences in their respective categories in North Karnataka.
       The Pandemic posed biggest challenge to host these conferences physically. The virtual
conference was the only option left. While people were getting bored of virtual meetings, TiE
Hubli took a completely different approach in making these conferences and successfully
delivered, perhaps, world's first business conference in the cinematic style.
