Looking for a Start-Up Idea?
Business 2.0 has a list of what they consider to be the best business ideas in the world today. Check back everyday to find a new idea. Right now, they have the top 12 ideas up and running and two of them involve India.
Every single one of these ideas seems to be based in a developing country. I wonder if that is deliberate. While some of the ideas are laughable, some of them seem to be genuinely monetizable ideas.
1. Build cheap Wi-Fi networks for Brazilian resorts.
2. Become a biodiesel producer in Argentina.
3. Create an ad network for India's mobile content developers.
4. Launch an exclusive social network for Russian millionaires.
5. Open an American-style restaurant in one of China's fast-growing cities.
6. Remodel homes for China's burgeoning middle class.
7 Flip mining claims in Bolivia.
8. Export the planet's next great wines - from Greece.
9. Import fine wines to upscale restaurants - in India.
10. Export gourmet coffee from Rwanda.
Every single one of these ideas seems to be based in a developing country. I wonder if that is deliberate. While some of the ideas are laughable, some of them seem to be genuinely monetizable ideas.
