Mostly everyone will have a dream to start a business
which will be now or in the near future. So who is an Entrepreneur? Traditionally
a person who starts and runs an enterprise or business is called as
entrepreneur. Yes it is, but not exactly that a person just wishes to start a
business, so he started a business. An Entrepreneur is a person who solves a
problem. But to start a company for that need some money and time. So we cannot
go and work in a company for full time and earn some money then start a company
which will take more time.
For many years in our economy there are two mainly two
types Full-Time workers and Part-Time workers. But recently a new type jobs
comes in to the people lifestyle which GIG
ECONOMY.
What is GIG Economy? A Gig economy is a free market
system which has temporary positions where organization has contract with independent
workers for short term. These independent workers would get the money for that
work. In short work for that money and money for that work. Like Freelancing,
Temp-jobs and Jobs in the sharing economy and more…
Let’s take our startups as example Uber which is
largest taxi company, owns no vehicles. OYO an accommodation provider which does
not own real estate, Swiggy which is India’s largest food ordering app but does
not own any restaurants. The workers in these companies are independent workers
who come inside the Gig Economy.
This Gig economy is considered to be growing faster
and larger in the future because it offers freedom of employment, flexible
hours, higher compensation, concentrated workforce, lower cost to the company
and many more features.
India is also has tremendous growth for the gig
economy. It is estimated that India has 15 Million Freelancers mainly in the urban
areas. Some experts believe that number of freelancers in India would double
every five years.
As I mentioned earlier about traditional entrepreneur who starts a business on his own risk and rewards of the venture. The freelancer and independent workers are going to be the next new age entrepreneurs. For starting a company we need platform, capital and targeted workforce which are all available for the new age entrepreneurs.
