India needs more “job givers” than “job seekers”. #entrepreneurship not only creates #capital, it creates jobs, drives social change, improves living standards, apart from having the potential of making millionaires out of young entrepreneurs. India is the world’s third largest eco-system for #startup with 38 unicorns, or firms valued at over $ 1 billion. 12 of them were created in 2020 alone and the latest one this year- Nykaa. In 2020 more than 40,000 start-ups were recognized by the government, which created almost 5 lakh jobs. All this in 2020, the year when the world was reeling under the pandemic. Various #incubationcentre / cells and other initiatives are searching for budding #entrepreneurs, not just in tier 1 but also in tier 2 and tier 3 cities.

As a youngster of the upcoming workforce, would you like a chance to actively participate in and grow the country’s economy?
Now, more than ever before, entrepreneurship is an option for Indian youth right out of colleges and universities. However, our education system, while giving them knowledge, falls woefully short of the know-how to navigate the corridors of entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship skills can be taught.
