UDYAMI 2017: The Much Needed Spark for Your Fiery Entrepreneurial Dream

You remember the movie ‘Banti aur Babli’?  Apart from the novel ways to dupe the world, it did teach us one good thing and that is my personal favorite too.

There was a dialogue Yeh world hai na world; ismein do tarah ke log hote hain. Ek jo bataye raaste par chalte hain aur doosre jo khud apna raasta banate hai.‘ 

The kind of fun movie it was, you might not have appreciated the kick it can give you but UDYAMI has turned the whole idea into an event, celebrating those ‘jo apna raasta khud banate hain’. 

Panjab University is organising its first ever National Entrepreneurship Summit UDYAMI, which is going to inspire, encourage, motivate you to shun your fears and doubts, fill you with confidence to tread on the path less traveled. It is not only going to recognise the creative, innovative and entrepreneurial skills in you, but also give you the limitless sky to unfurl your wings. With a singular aim to foster the startup ecosystem in the country, the grand event, spanning across 3 days, is going to be the plethora of events encompassing students, entrepreneurs, researchers, investors and established businessmen.
