About EO Odisha
Building Odisha's most impactful community of entrepreneurs.
Our Mission
Engage Leading Entrepreneurs to Learn and Grow
EO Odisha is the Entrepreneurs’ Organization’s chapter for Bhubaneswar and the state of Odisha — and the only peer-to-peer network of its kind in the region.
Founded in 2020, our chapter brings together 45+ of Odisha’s most accomplished entrepreneurs — spanning IT, steel, pharma, manufacturing, tourism, real estate, and beyond. We exist to give them one thing they can’t get anywhere else: a trusted, confidential community of peers who truly understand what it means to be at the top of a growing business in Odisha today.
Bhubaneswar is rising. Odisha’s industrial corridor is expanding. Our entrepreneurs are competing at a global level. EO Odisha gives them peer support, world-class learning, and cross-industry connections to go further, faster.
What We Stand For
The core values that guide our chapter and every interaction within it.
Peer-to-Peer Learning
Real conversations between entrepreneurs who've faced the same challenges. No consultants, no pitches — just honest peer wisdom from fellow Odisha business owners.
Confidentiality
What's shared in EO stays in EO. Our Gestalt protocol ensures every member can be fully open without fear of judgment or disclosure.
Continuous Growth
We're committed to lifelong learning — as entrepreneurs, as leaders, and as human beings.
Global Perspective, Local Roots
Our members gain access to 20,000+ EO entrepreneurs across 62 countries — while remaining deeply rooted in Odisha’s unique business landscape and culture.
Whole Entrepreneur
We support the full person — not just the business. Because the best companies are built by people who thrive in all areas of life: family, health, relationships, and personal purpose.
Community First
We give before we get. Members invest in each other's success because rising tides lift all boats. This is not a networking club. It is a community.
