- Need to increase out strength
- Roshan assured that gujaratstartups portal will be improvised to allow SMS notification upon event announcement and people should be able to RSVP and also put in number of guests they are bringing
 

Decisions Taken:
- In every meetup, we should have 1 member to present a case study and take up group discussion on that. People who want to present should intimate in advance to either Roshan Shah, Ankur Patel, Chirag Patel or Rushik Shah.  One of  them will be asked to present. Others won't be intimated on who is presenting to maintain interest in group
- Workshops should continue and we will take up the second part of the business plan template
- Everyone will write up their "Company Description"  in more structured way giving more thoughts to their venture and print 10 copies and circulate it to others in the next meetup to the members. In the following meetup, members will give back the copy to concerned entrepreneur with their notes.
- People should start using the portal for ongoing regular communications and asking questions..
