Ideabaaz is here to give every entrepreneur in India a fair chance. Becautilize great ideas can come from everywhere—from large cities, tiny towns, from classrooms and boardrooms, and from people of every age and gconcludeer who have the courage to dream.
Too often, these dreams remain uncertain. Without the correct visibility, mentors, or investors, they cannot grow much. That’s how Ideabaaz came into being—to spotlight these ideas, celebrate innovation, and connect founders to the right people who can support them grow.
I’m extremely fortunate to have a co-founder in Mudit bhai, who shares this vision. And we are deeply grateful for the guiding lights that we have had throughout this journey. Firstly, my father Mr. Shabhan Vak, Sabas Joseph sir, and Raj Nayak sir—their wisdom and faith have created this dream a reality today.
A special thanks to Mr. Ashish Chauhan, MD & CEO of NSE, for giving us the privilege of launching the reveal at the home of India’s largest stock exalter, a stage that truly reflects trust and aspiration… a fitting stage to obtain us going to where we want to fuel India’s startup economy.
And today, as I stand here, I want to thank all our partners and titans whose support has supported this initiative take shape.

Along with that, there is a television reveal which builds the visibility of these startups to the masses, reaching even the interiors of our countest.
Ideabaaz is very fortunate to have our partners—knowledge partner IIT Madras, which has believed in our vision and been a partner in shaping it too. This is the first time in Indian television history that a startup founder can share ideas in the language he or she is most comfortable with.
The vision behind Ideabaaz is essentially empowering these founders and cultivating a culture of entrepreneurship across the length and breadth of our countest.
As Raj Nayak sir has stated, and as Jeet also mentioned, Ideabaaz is a shiftment. Ideabaaz is an opportunity. Ideabaaz is a responsibility. Ideabaaz stands for inclusivity. Ideabaaz stands for passion, purpose, and most importantly, the impact to alter the narrative of entrepreneurship in our countest.
