NEW DELHI, SEPTEMBER 14: In a major leap towards encouraging the entrepreneurship among its students, Shri Vaishnav Vidyapeeth Vishwavidyalaya, Indore (SVVV, Indore) has launched the Entrepreneurship Development Cell (EDC) to support and facilitate the development of the next generation of business leaders. The EDC is aimed at enabling SVVV to become the hub of entrepreneurship in the region. EDC is managed by the students of SVVV for manifesting the entrepreneurial spirit of young students.
SVVV has always been a hotbed for innovative thinkers, and EDC offers a new channel to transform breakthrough ideas into viable business ventures. EDC aims to create a structured platform that strengthens the entrepreneurial ecosystem in technology business incubation by providing support to the larger SVVV fraternity. The Cell focuses on inviting on board experienced industry leaders, successful entrepreneurs, investors and policy makers, who can guide the registered students in terms of mentoring, advice, pitching proposals and more.
SVVV has designed and developed mechanisms and bodies to help create new enterprises that employ technologies developed by its faculty and students. It, thus, offers a conducive environment in which new ideas can be generated, researched, and nurtured before they become industry ready.
The activities of the Cell cover entrepreneurship value chain to include micro-grants and networking with established entrepreneurs and industry leaders. It is managed by an Advisory Board comprising faculty members, industry professionals, renowned international experts on entrepreneurship and student representatives. Having round the year events, such as expert lectures, Startup Weekend powered by Google for entrepreneurial activities, events, competitions, and Jugaad conducted to inculcate a startup mindset among students, EDC aims at an all round development of all its members so that they are fully prepared for their future endeavors. It also supports and incubates many startups.
