For the adventurous few who are not afraid to venture into the unknown, FMS MBA (MS) presents ConneXion ’09, an initiative by the Entrepreneurship Cell at FMS, South Campus in association with NEN. ConneXion ‘09 is an event aimed to provide a platform to the budding entrepreneurs to gain an insight into the exciting and challenging journey of a startup. It gives students an opportunity to gain a real-life experience of working in a startup, understand the potential risks as well as potential benefits of entrepreneurship as a career path.
The pre-event structure involves companies sharing the projects that they would like to offer to the students, followed by students applying for them by sending in their resumes. The projects may be related to client work, problem areas in company’s sales or operations, or market feedback on company’s products/services. During the event, the companies will visit the Campus, give presentations about their core area of business and the projects on offer for the students, and select interested students through interviews. These students will then work closely with the company for a specified duration.
We hope that Connexion ’09 will bring out the best abilities of potential entrepreneurs, nurture them, and aid them in their growth. As a country, entrepreneurs and people who can carve out their own niche are a huge asset to bank upon. Connexion ‘09 is one small step towards that shining goal.
