To infuse the youth with the spirit of entrepreneurship, a programme called, ‘Start-up’, has been launched in Haryana to realise their potential for innovation.
An official spokesman said that the programme was launched during the roadshow organised in New Delhi on December 22 in the run up to the ‘Happening Haryana Global Investors’ Summit-2016’ to be organised in Gurgaon on March 7 and 8, 2016.
The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) is the national partner for this Summit. Four more roadshows would be organised at Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Bengaluru before the Summit, he added.
He said that boot camps would be organised with the joint efforts of State Government and Startup Accelerator Chamber of Commerce in colleges and universities across the State from January, 2016 onwards. The ‘Start-up’ torch, which was lit by Haryana Chief Minister, Manohar lal Khattar, during the roadshow at Delhi, would be taken to various universities and colleges of the State, apart from units associated with the fields of technical, management and industry. The Start-up torch would finally reach the venue of ‘Happening Haryana Global Investors Summit-2016’ in Gurgaon on March 8, 2016.
Five students giving best suggestions in these boot camps would be honoured on the concluding day of the Summit in the presence of industrialists of national and international repute.
