  "account": "R Madhavan, the multi-talented actor, screenwriter, filmmaker, and entrepreneur, is set to launch a new venture called Game Changers Middle East. The actor announced the news on his Instagram account, stating that the series will focus on entrepreneurship and investment, but more importantly, it will discover individuals with the courage to change themselves and society.\n\nMadhavan believes that the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where he relocated during the pandemic, is the best place for budding entrepreneurs to experiment. He added that if Game Changers succeeds in the UAE, it will work everywhere. The actor hopes that the investors will find a younger version of themselves and see another dream they wish to pursue. He also mentioned that the search for the next generation of game-changing entrepreneurs will not be limited to the Middle East but will extend globally.\n\nThe Gamechangers Middle East is a UAE-born startup platform that received an overwhelming response of 2,000 founder applications. The series aims to spotlight and support 70 high-potential startups through a televised pitch format, broadcast across TV and streaming platforms for a chance to secure backing and accelerate their growth in a dynamic business environment.",
