Mr. Anshul Khurana, Co-founder, Entitled Solutions said  “In my professional journey (India Infrastructure, Grand Resource Factory which was the first company where I went in as a Co-founder and here at Entitled), I have had different mentors who have all played a significant role in my entrepreneurial development.They all allowed me the freedom that I needed to chart out a path, make my own mistakes and learn from them. The amount of confidence they gave me in my own abilities and the freedom that was allowed to me is very rare when dealing with organisations with a lot at stake.The greatest life lesson I have been taught is to just continue to turn up everyday, and trust your abilities”
