The fifth edition of August Fest would have two events -- Scale Up festival and the Sports Carnival. Over 60 business leaders and sports personalities are expected to speak at the events and ten workshops will be held, Adi Vemuru, one of the organisers, told reporters here today.
Seasoned shuttler Jwala Gutta said such events are needed to establish an eco-system for sports to take a major leap.
Telangana IT Secretary Jayesh Ranjan said the August Fest, into its fifth year, would provide guidance to start up enthusiasts.
There are opportunities for start ups in sports as well with competitive leagues coming up in different sports, he added.
