Details at http://elagaan.com/startupcamp eLagaan Startup Camp is an event to gather insights and interact with industry experts & leaders. This is not meant for showcasing ideas and products but rather brainstorm & learn from experts to benefit from their experience to help build/run a successful startup.

Many startups fail, not because they didn't have the right product or service, but because either they raised fund at the wrong time from the wrong investor in wrong terms, OR they didn't have an exit strategy, OR even worse they didn't have a proper legal structure to make the company fundable or saleable.

The Camp will touch base on these aspects from people who have made it happen, and then followed by strong panel to see both sides of the coin. The event is targeted towards entrepreneurs & wannabe entrepreneurs.

Registration is completely FREE, so Register Now at http://elagaan.com/startupcamp

Thanks to Our partners (Microsoft India, Yourstory.in, Intuit SIPA USA, OCC Bangalore, eLagaan) for support.

The sad reality is that most of us have no clue of the cutting edge technology development that happens in our own city!

You will find several of these 'cool startups' at the siliconindia Startup City. You can meet star engineers from these companies and see how they built cutting edge products.

• Watch live product demonstrations
• Get a peek into cutting edge technologies
• Lay hands on the best-of-breed solutions
• Meet young, energetic, passionate geeks
• Experience the culture of innovation
