Hyderabad, Telangana Oct 24, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE) Hyderabad is set to host the Hyderabad Entrepreneurship Summit (HES 2025) on October 31 and November 1, bringing together innovators, investors, and industry leaders to shape the city’s entrepreneurial future.
The summit comes at a time when Hyderabad’s tech ecosystem has witnessed remarkable growth. In 2024, the city’s startups reported a 160% increase in funding, raising $571 million across 81 funding rounds, signalling a strong resurgence in the post-funding-winter period. Hyderabad is emerging as a hub for AI, deep tech, fintech, health tech, and enterprise software, with global capability centres increasingly anchoring research, development, and innovation operations in the city.
“With its blend of technology, talent, and tenacity, Hyderabad is poised to lead India’s entrepreneurial wave toward 2035. HES 2025 will be a defining platform for founders, investors, and ecosystem enablers to connect, learn, and grow,” said Rajesh Pagadala, President, TiE Hyderabad.

Over 1,500 attendees, including startup founders, investors, and industry leaders.
