Entrepreneurship Development Cell
Turning ideas into ventures — SVPP's ED Cell, established in August 2013, nurtures the entrepreneurial spirit and helps student innovators move from concept to real business.
Entrepreneurship is increasingly recognised as an important driver of economic growth. The Government of India has recognised its importance through programmes like 'Make in India' and 'Start-up India'. The Entrepreneurship Development Cell (ED Cell) at SVPP was established in August 2013 to develop and strengthen entrepreneurial qualities in budding professionals interested in starting their own ventures.
The college provides infrastructure and technical support to students with innovative ideas to transform them into new products and services for the betterment of society. The ED Cell assists aspirants with mentoring, planning and execution of start-up ideas into real businesses, and has maintained a pool of sponsors including banks, national entrepreneurship training agencies and suppliers willing to aid budding entrepreneurs.
Aspiring engineer-entrepreneurs are groomed with the necessary inputs on how to be a successful entrepreneur through workshops and seminars by eminent people from industry. SVPP encourages students to consider self-employment as a career option, providing necessary training in entrepreneurship skills through standardised courses and time-to-time events and activities.
