CII Emerging Entrepreneur Award 2013 – Nithin Kamath<\/p><\/div>\n

The nomination for this award came as a surprise to Nithin, as we had applied on his behalf without his knowledge. After the first round of screening, there was a complete process of due diligence by GT and BCG which required us sharing our financial statements with them. This was followed by an interview of Nithin with the imminent jury. The award was presented by Kris Gopalkrishnan (former Co-Chairman of Infosys) and M.Narendra (Chairman & MD, Indian Overseas Bank) on the March 10, 2014 in Chennai. \u00a0Find the link below for the <\/iframe><\/a> of Nithin’s short acceptance speech.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
