Welcome to Amritians Entrepreneurs, the special interest group working towards nurturing Entrepreneurship among the alumni of AMRITA, where we strongly believe that Entrepreneurs are made and not born. For us
"Entrepreneurship is not merely conceiving an idea or being able to take it ahead as a product; Neither it is just about managing a group of men nor just the ability to take business decisions; It is also not merely analysis or the possession of sharp acumen to get elegant solutions for business problems;
Entrepreneurship is all about practicing the art of the organized forcing of a positive change targeting sustainable development...
Entrepreneurs operate at the interface between business and society..."
We feel that there is no corner on creativity, but just the desire to express it. Once the desire appears, you are sure that you have awakened the entrepreneur within you. We invite aspirants with an entrepreneurial drive to be the "change elements" who want to initiate commercial enterprises and social businesses which would act as catalysts accelerating the society towards economic prosperity and social justice.
We aspire to set up a platform which aims at transforming enterprising volunteers into professional entrepreneurs by offering hand holding support and showing them the road ahead towards a sustainable development of their ventures. We at Amritians Entrepreneurs SIG focus on equipping the individual with the knowledge that is required to
- identify a product idea
- refine the idea into a business concept
- understand the different areas involved in starting a business
- create a preliminary business plan that can help present the idea
- build network with others who can refine the business plan to a potentially flourishing business
Further to this, through Amritians Entrepreneurs SIG, you get to enjoy
- access to resources and vast expertise from the institute and industry
- introduction to potential incubators and venture capitalists.
- unparalleled mentorship from subject matter experts, talior made for every proposal
- opportunity to work in an energetic and vibrant environment with experienced entrepreneurs
So if you feel you have what it takes to be an Entrepreneur, we would be glad to help you realise it. Click here to join the Entrepreneurship team.
Wishing you all the very best and looking forward for the pleasure of supporting you in your entrepreneurial venture.
