The momentous growth and continued expansion of the startup ecosystem in India has ushered in a whole new era of breakthrough innovations and unprecedented achievements. This promises a brilliant future for the community as a robust growth engine for the nation. The team at FTEM is proud to be associated as Digital Media Partner with Uttishtha ’21.

About Uttishtha ’21 – Annual Entrepreneurship Summit

After the roaring success of its one-of a-kind Startup fest, Uttishtha’ 2019, IIM Kashipur is back with Uttishtha’ 21. The Annual Entrepreneurship Summit aims to provide aspiring entrepreneurs an unparalleled platform buzzing with out-of-the-box solutions. It also provides brilliant opportunities for collaboration, brainstorming, networking and much more.

Events planned as part of Uttishtha ’21

The 3-day Summit, Uttishtha ’21 will witness a series of exciting events, each curated with a specific purpose. The events include:

• Focused group discussions bringing together investors, entrepreneurs and students
• Investors’ meet that will provide an excellent opportunity for startups to pitch their business plans before an esteemed panel of investors
• Entrepreneurship meet for those who have been there and done that to share their insights
• School reach-out program crafted to impart fundamentals of entrepreneurship to young and curious minds
• A plethora of workshops and competitions, and
• Last but not the least, team-building and internship fairs

School Students and Entrepreneurial Immersion

We are particularly excited about the inclusion of school students in the start-up ecosystem. Children need to be immersed in entrepreneurial values and spirit at an early age. As we have seen on our platform, GenZ has repeatedly surprised the world by immaculately articulating their mature and wise thoughts. They have written on deep topics such as Perception and Vanity or made learning child’s play using the Feynman Technique. They are not afraid to question deep seated cultural beliefs, and are found dealing with global social issues that are discussed at MUNs. Not only that, they know how to be creative to deal with uncertainty or simply have fun solving challenges and enjoying the reality on virtual platforms.

It is about time that we start engaging with the young ones on entrepreneurship. And, needless to mention, the annual event should only be a starting point and not the ending point for such engagement! In case the above inspires you to share your thoughts, we are currently accepting insights and experiences from people across all walks of life at ‘Get Featured‘.

Internship Opportunity at Start-ups

Uttishtha ’21 also provides internship opportunities through the team-building fair. This acts as a gateway for the brightest minds across varied disciplines for their internship journey. This is one start-up event where all students have some opportunities to look forward to. There are internship opportunities whether the students are in school or at graduate / engineering college or doing post-graduation / MBA.

Start-up Stories:

Uttishtha ’21 allows several opportunities for engaging in discussions with experts and peers. Entrepreneurs and those wanting to be one, can pitch their business plans to potential investors. And, as the Digital Media Partner of this annual Entrepreneurship Summit, we will be on the lookout. Be ready to narrate those interesting start-up stories and we will feature the top ones on this platform! Check out stories such as Pramit Bhargava’s who inspite of visual impairment created Louie Voice Control for the visually impaired. Or, how two sisters converted an instagram blog into a web-based business.

This will provide immense learning opportunity to other entrepreneurs who can relate to your journey. We truly believe that narrating the essence of your journey can be an inflection point in your trajectory. As Aswath Damodaran famously remarked, valuation of start-ups is based on the story and the narrative.

So, be on the lookout for interacting with our team and impressing us with your story. In case you need a head-start, you can head over to this link to Share your Journey right now.
