AHMEDABAD: Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, on Thursday touched upon the role of young entrepreneurs in shaping what he called India's "second freedom struggle"— a fight not for independence from foreign rule but for independence in technology and social innovation that uplifts every community, bridges divides and strengthens the fabric of democracy.
In his address at the fourth edition of Adani Green Talks hosted here, Gautam Adani said we join our nation’s "second freedom struggle" — freedom from inequality, freedom from inertia, and freedom from indifference.
"And that freedom to dream boldly, my friends, is what Green Talks is all about. Built on the belief that every fresh idea contains the blueprint for transformation. It reminds us that growth is not linear — it is unpredictable and often invisible, " the billionaire industrialist said.
“That is, until suddenly, a green shoot breaks through the surface, announcing a new chapter of freedom and hope. And within that tender green shoot is embedded the essence of every great dream that has gone on to create history, ” the Adani Group Chairman noted.
In just three editions of Green Talks, hundreds of dreams have been evaluated, and 15 remarkable companies have shared their visions on the stage.
"In a world where nine out of ten startups fade, it has been fascinating to see how many of our dreamers have already beaten the odds, " said Gautam Adani.
