1. Farrhad Acidwalla
16 years old Farrhad Acidwalla from Mumbai started his entrepreneurial journey with an investment of just $10. When he was in the eighth grade, he borrowed $10 from his parents and bought his first domain name. Farrhad began building a web community devoted to aviation and aero-modeling. Within a short period of time, his website took off and Farrhad decided to sell the site for far more than his initial $10 investment. Today Farrhad is the CEO and founder of Rockstah Media, a cutting-edge company devoted to web development, marketing, advertisement, and branding. Although the company is just over a year old, it has own developers, designers and market strategists spread across the globe. Being the CEO, Farrhad takes care of the clients and guids the creative team. Currently, Farrhad is studying finance at H.R. College of Commerce & Economics.
4. King Sidharth
Belonged to a backward sector in Northern India, 18 years old King Sidharth and a few friends began organizing events and competitions for other children. They used to make tickets and charge an entry fee, then award little prizes to the winners. Today, Sidharth is organizing a conference for teenagers called Createens that will give young people an opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship, blogging, and more from world-wide experts. King Sidharth has just graduated from high school and he has already made a name for himself as one of India's top young entrepreneurs. Apart from that King is a speaker, author and a magazine publisher. He speaks on topics of entrepreneurship and spirituality and is currently writing an e-magazine for teens (Friendz) and a book about the intersection of spirituality and science (Bhagvad Gita & the Law of Attraction).
3. Arjun Rai
It was at the age of seven when Arjun Rai showed his entrepreneurial spirit, selling knickknacks that he found around the house. He also set up shop to sell leftover wildflower necklaces after a wedding. This youngster became the COO of a quickly growing online advertising company, but his entrepreneurial mind drove him to form a brand-new venture called odysseyAds, an online advertising network with a focus on catering to 21st century marketer needs. 18 years old Arjun, who has just completed his junior year of high school, was inspired by TV shows like "The Oprah Show" and "The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch".

Now a sophomore at the Wharton School, Ankur along with some of the ingenious students there, have conspired to establish a society of collegiate entrepreneurs, called the Kairos Society and, in less than a year, the group has gone from nationwide to global. The purpose of Kairos is to bring together the brightest college students from different economic backgrounds from all over the country, which have passion for entrepreneurship. With a motto of inspiration, experience and innovation, the Kairos Society aims to foster the entrepreneurial spirit among students by connecting them with one another, forging relationships with emerging start-up companies around the word
