520 _aThis note seeks to examine why thousands of Indian professionals in the US go on to start their own business and why the same phenomenon does not occur in India, at least not on a similar scale. The key factor behind the success in the US is the easier access to capital through the public equity markets. So policies that promote similar access in India will enable more professionals to become first generation entrepreneurs. State governments that implement such policies will find the financial burden to be small. While driven by their desire for wealth and growth, many of the new capitalists are likely to back positive changes in areas like education. - Reproduced.
