Kasparov shared his life experiences with top business magnets across the globe on how life imitates chess.
His session was titled 'Checkmate: Reading an Opponent's Mind and how life imitates chess'.
The former World Chess Champion, writer, and political activist was in the national capital to motivate and inspire around 600 top entrepreneurs from all across the globe at the Regional Integration Event RIE - ZindaDilli 2016, organised by Delhi chapter of Entrepreneurs Organisation (EO).
