1. Anand Mahindra is a funny man and it's visible on Twitter! The Mahindra CEO takes his WhatsApp forwards to Twitter and this year the one that made us laugh the most, was a video of a dancing Scorpio car.

2. 2018 can be called the year when American Congressmen tried their best to understand technology. Example? iPhones are not made by Google and that's what Sundar Pichai had to clarify to a republican congressman when asked about spammed images popping up on Apple handsets.

3. When have celebrities used what they sell. Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan was recently trolled for posting a panic tweet to complain about his Samsung S9 not functioning. Why? Because he is a OnePlus ambassador.

4. Our favourite has to be Elon Musk and his tweets ranging from a bankruptcy joke to admitting to being weird and very recently, sharing a video link from Bajirao Mastani.

Here's the "news that entrepreneurs can use". Know what's trending in the Indian business world in 60 seconds.
