India is seeing a surge towards Entrepreneurship, many of these wannabe entrepreneurs being students. Juggling the pressures of academic life and the desire to start a company is challenging, and we hope that our speaker will give our audience some tips on how to manage both.

“Preparing to be an Entrepreneur While You Study” showed that there are a number of opportunities that can be put in place to encourage entrepreneurship within educational institutes in India. It also delved into the cultural and economic barriers in the system, the limited interest of companies to encourage entrepreneurs, and the short-term mindsets of both faculty and students; some key reasons that stifle the mood to take on entrepreneurship. Nevertheless, there is a growing set of entrepreneurs that defy these odds and go on to build companies. As always, it is passion that fuels such Startups.
