Intrapreneurship involves entrepreneurial behavior within an existing organization. It allows organizations to benefit from innovation while drawing on existing resources. To foster intrapreneurship, organizations should establish an environment that encourages risk-taking, experimentation, and multidisciplinary teamwork. They should also implement reward systems for intrapreneurs and have top management support for entrepreneurial activities. Successfully establishing intrapreneurship involves securing commitments, identifying ideas, setting expectations, developing support structures, and implementing an evaluation system.

The entrepreneurial mindset does not only belong to the owners of different enterprises but this quality can be present in many people related to different fields. Focusing on the entrepreneurial mindset, it is the characteristic which motivates the person to evaluate, exploit and discover opportunities. This characteristic is common in habitual entrepreneurs who are different from ordinary business managers as they are passionate in seeking new opportunities and bypass other unfruitful options in order to keep themselves safe from exhaustion. They are keen to concentrate on adaptive executions and they motivate their team members so that the common goal can be achieved (McGrath and MacMillan, 2000).

Jim Collins researched over 1,400 companies for decades to understand what separates good companies from great ones. He found that great companies are led by Level 5 leaders who channel their ego into the larger goal. They also get the right people in place before deciding on strategies.

Finally, great companies see transformation as a result of steady pushing on a flywheel rather than one-time change events.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
