EPIC WORLD FAQs
We are a comprehensive global platform created to build and scale 50+ bluechip companies that address the needs and aspirations of Entrepreneurial Households. Entrepreneurial Households are defined by their economic resilience, innovativeness, and their generation of multiple sources of income. This resilience and economic savviness has led Entrepreneurial Households to represent $10 trillion in transaction volume in India alone. Yet Entrepreneurial Households are consistently undervalued for meaningful investment.
EPIC World aims to bridge this gap by building over 50 bluechip companies specifically designed to meet the needs and aspirations of this untapped market segment. This is generational change. We will not stop until we’ve created a paradigm shift in how the world views investment and economic growth.

Entrepreneurial Households are a significant player in driving economic growth. They are characterized by their upward socio-economic mobility, resilience, and generation of multiple sources of income. Their aspirations and actions have resulted in a multi-trillion dollar demand for large scale formal institutions capable of delivering core goods & services.
The estimated annual total Core Transaction Value (CTV) of Entrepreneurial Households in India is projected to rise to nearly $100 trillion in the next 20 years. Investing in the continued economic growth of these households is the EPIC Opportunity.
The EPIC Opportunity is why we are building 50+ blue-chip companies that meet the needs and aspirations of Entrepreneurial Households. Read more here
Traditionally, financial institutions and businesses use metrics like income to evaluate individual economic potential. But income and consumption metrics often fall short in representing the actual economic value of Entrepreneurial Households. To get a more accurate picture, we factor in the formal and informal transactions at the household level, including both inflows and outflows. This provides a more accurate picture of a household’s cash flows and therefore their economic potential and dynamism.
Transactions in CTV are chosen with discernment for their long-term impact (like spending on education, business and agricultural investments, and healthcare), while excluding discretionary and survival spends. This allows us to think more expansively about the economic power of Entrepreneurial Households, and provides a more accurate metric for market sizing and evaluating business opportunities with them.
When measured in CTV terms, we see that Entrepreneurial Households already represent a multi-trillion dollar market transacted annually. This powerful metric highlights the immense economic potential of Entrepreneurial Households as drivers of growth and innovation.
