TiE is a global, not-for-profit network of entrepreneurs and professionals that is dedicated to fostering entrepreneurship around the world.

TiE was founded in 1992 by a group of entrepreneurs, corporate executives and professionals with roots in the Indus region of India, hence the name The Indus Entrepreneurs. They came together to network among their peers, mentor early-stage companies and create a forum for discussing trends in business, technology and investing.

Today, TiE stands for Talent, Ideas, and Enterprise.

TiE is an inclusive organization whose membership and benefits are open to anyone interested in working with and supporting the entrepreneurial community.

We empower entrepreneurs by providing them with workshops and seminars on fundraising, legal, accounting, finance, human resources and management practices.
