Insights Into Entrepreneurship- Workshop II

A lot of people dream about being entrepreneurs. For some, this journey starts very young- either when they are in school or pursuing their higher education. It all starts with an idea. However, it’s not always a cakewalk because that idea needs research as well as execution.

If we do a little study, we can see that jobs that existed decades ago are no longer available in the current situation. New technologies are advancing every day in the turbulent and dynamic market, and the current generation is heading towards an uncertain future. It may take years to learn a particular trade or expertise, but it may vanish from the market over time, wreaking havoc on students' careers. Learning about entrepreneurship will always leave one door open for venturing into if things do not go as planned.

Entrepreneurship education fosters creativity, problem-solving skills and instills communication and sales skills, enhances leadership skills and provides basic life skills to students. It also prepares them for an uncertain future. With a lot of young people who wish to be entrepreneurs, the process stops at idea generation as the journey ahead seems difficult and confusing.

This workshop is the first one in the series of two episodes that aims to educate young students who wish to be thriving entrepreneurs. It will be a great learning session for everyone who wishes to know more about starting the journey of entrepreneurship and understand the nitty gritty of starting from an idea and going upto execution.

These workshops will also unravel a huge opportunity for students to participate in Eureka! Junior 2021, an entrepreneurship competition for school students organized by Ecell IIT- Bombay to give a platform for all young students who wish to be entrepreneurs and even have a great idea.
