From Ideas to Ventures — Building the Entrepreneurial Edge

Designed as a hands-on, outcome-driven journey, this course immerses students in the complete entrepreneurial process — from identifying real-world problems to pitching investor-ready business plans. Through structured mentoring, workshops, and milestone-based learning, students develop the mindset and capabilities to think like entrepreneurs, act like innovators, and lead like founders.
