The interview began with Prof. Abraham talking about entrepreneurship from an academic perspective. When asked about what it takes to be an entrepreneur, he said that one needs vision, passion and ideas but what he emphasised is that the current environment is extremely ‘exciting’ for entrepreneurship.

According to him, the reason for the growth of entrepreneurship in recent times is due to the technological disruptions taking place which are leading to abundant opportunities for everyone.
