The Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES), scheduled to be held from November 28 to 30, will showcase over 100 innovative start-ups, products, services and processes that are transforming the Indian and global landscape.
These will be exhibited through a multi-touch interactive wall, sensor-enabled touch screens, rotoscope mural technology, and physical displays, said the organisers.
Among the innovations to be on display is the technology from Hyperloop India. It will provide an answer to how India can leapfrog the transportation revolution.
Hyperloop technology, brainchild of SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk, is a system of magnetically levitating capsules (pods) that are sent at high speeds through low-pressure tubes. It is still in trial stages in different countries.
Under India Edge, the Indian start-ups will display their innovations and these include GreenSole, which refurbishes old shoes and create new pairs for needy, SocialCops, a data intelligence company, and BabyChakra, a social-discovery, and commerce platform for maternity and childcare.
NITI Aayog is hosting the GES in partnership with the US government.
