mdi start-up bootcamp
Management Development Institute (MDI) co-organised a unique boot camp, with SACC (Start-up Accelerator Chamber of Commerce) that provided a bouncing ground for several path-breaking business ideas.
The activity was a business idea formation exercise where the participating students from MDI formed 6 teams comprising five-members in each team. These teams were given a theme on which they had to build a scalable idea on the spot.
Post the brainstorming session students pitched their business propositions to the jury and the jury quizzed the team. The jury included SACC members along with Prof Nakul Gupta from MDI, Gurgaon. Teams were evaluated on various parameters. The finalists from this activity will now be given a chance to pitch and scale their idea at the upcoming Startup Weekend.
