This is indeed a great opportunity for corporate entrepreneurs to experiment with their skills and abilities. "The concept of Corporate Entrepreneurs is a new concept and offers entrepreneurial professionals to work with the Knowledge Conglomerate to set-up entirely new knowledge- based businesses, sharing both the risks and rewards that come with it" said the Knowledge Conglomerate Venture Promoter Hilmy Cader.

Over a period of three years, starting April 2010, the Knowledge Conglomerate plans to evaluate the feasibility and launch knowledge-based ventures in some of the following domains, including joint ventures and strategic alliances.

The key areas the company plans to focus on are Business Magazines, KPO/BPO's, Socio Economic Research, Technology, Education-Degrees/Masters, Event Management, Legal and Tax Advisory, Energy and Environment, Company Secretarial, Investment Research, Market Research, Head Hunting/Executive Search/Marketing Communications, Training and Executive Education, Corparate Finance/Fund Management, Webcom Design etc.

The Knowledge Conglomerate Venture Promoter Hilmy Cader is also the CEO of MTI Consulting and the Knowledge Conglomerate operates as an associate of MTI Consulting. However MTI will continue to be a highly focused, pure play strategy consultancy and will be managed independently, and not involved with operations of the venture

The search for corporate entrepreneurs will focus on those with experience that can be converted to a profitable competence and have the desire that can be converted to a solid commitment to start-up a new venture and go through the trying challenges of such a process.

"They should be able to operate in a no-frills, hands-on and young organization which means you roll up your sleeves and do what it takes to make the business a success, minus the unproductive cubicles, secretaries and assistants!".

Hilmy Cader said that "These are all dedicated positions that offers flexible work times, durations and place of work. It is not a part-time option while engaging in another job or a directly competing job / industry".
