Indian Institute of Entrepreneurship

Having an idea is one thing and making a successful business out of that idea is another thing which requires certain intangible entrepreneurial characteristics. For any start-up surviving the initial three years is the biggest challenge. Reliable statistics shows that, 95 % of the start-up’s collapse within one year; of the remaining 98 % collapse within three years; it mean only the 2 % of the start-up’s survive!
India is a plate of opportunities waiting to be served. She needs more and more entrepreneurs to capitalize on this and make India a dominating country in the World. She needs entrepreneurs who can create more opportunities and more jobs to make her an undisputable economic superpower.
Very few B-schools in India provide any sort of entrepreneurship program! Some of the B-Schools which provide entrepreneurship program just focus on some handful of management subjects instead of creating a vibrant environment for grooming the Gen-Y entrepreneurs. Besides capital and an idea; any start-up requires key management skills like, ability to take timely decisions, prioritizing activities, ordering the sequence of events, managing resources, managing accounts, having a good network etc. All this is directly proportional to the lifetime of your business. All this asks for a more realistic and customized entrepreneurial program, which unfortunately many of the b-schools don’t offer.
Entrepreneurship is all about alignment: alignment of your strengths and skills to your business. This would ask for experienced entrepreneurs, who can offer mentoring thereby, helping you to identify your key strengths and skills. Being a spectator and being a player is a world different! A budding cricketer would immensely benefit if he/she is being coached and mentored by a former player who has been there and know exactly what it takes to be there than a cricket analyst who just possess an outside knowledge! The point being focused is, very few B-Schools have entrepreneurs teaching, guiding and mentoring the budding entrepreneurs.
