Kashmir Youth Entrepreneurship Programme, 2022



E-Hub Kashmir is organising the Kashmir Youth Entrepreneurship Programme under the aegis of DataLEADS Foundation in collaboration with TiE, Bangalore.

The objective is to teach aspiring and upcoming entrepreneurs business design thinking and entrepreneurship fundamentals. We aim to create a space for exchanging ideas and building relationships between the people who want to start and run their businesses successfully.

Business mentors and speakers will be leaders from the industry who will share business strategies with the participants and help them develop, plan and put their ideas into practice.

Sessions are customized to suit the students' needs, such as training them to develop business ideas, creating a prototype, identifying key skills required to run a start-up, establishing liaisons with the industry experts, managing stakeholders and learning business communication strategy.
