‘Chetna 2015’ seeks to encourage entrepreneurially-oriented students to develop their ideas, present them in a convincing manner, and witness their ideas come to life at the DEI Entrepreneurship Virtual Incubation Cell (EVIC). As part of this endeavour, the competition intends to provide students with a forum to create a novel idea for a new approach, product, service, or venture; to develop skills in show-casing their ideas to potential investors and partners in order to receive constructive feedback; and to possibly witness their idea come to life by utilizing the incubated facilities within the DEI EVIC. Thus, students who participate will have the opportunity to:
· Learn how to present themselves and their ideas in a concise and effective manner, conveying a sense of passion and a commitment to making a difference in the nation and the world.
· Capture and retain the attention of potential sponsors, investors, or other possible supporters.
· Nurture their ideas into successful full-scale marketable products by utilizing the state-of-the-art incubation facilities available within the DEI EVIC, together with the support from potential sponsors (AADEIs, etc.), investors, and industry experts.
