Is age just a number or it really matters to be an entrepreneur?

As per my point of view age is just a number who can't determine your expertise and knowledge. No one ever said that you can’t be a successful entrepreneur at age 22 or 62. There are many examples of entrepreneurs who had started their start-ups late at their age. We have heard about Nykaa founder Falguni Nayar who became an entrepreneur at the age of 49 and 79-year-old Ashok Soota is all set to launch his third company. On the other hand, India also has 18 under-30 founders who are soon-to-be unicorns. 

The most essential things that matters are education, experience, opportunity, network, and funding which position a founder to have the best chance of success.

Whatever your age, stage or goals, you can be a successful entrepreneur. Don’t stress about it. Just start and always be clear about your mission and vision, educate yourself each day, use your experience to upgrade your expertise, keep your all 5-senses open to opportunities, keep networking and try to connect with your targeted customers and deliver the best. Moreover entrepreneurs generally encounter many pitfalls as the journey is full of risks and challenges. They have to gain hands-on skills that give them the confidence that they can run a business on their own.
