IISWBM Innovation Council (IIC) (Formerly known as E-Cell)
The IISWBM Innovation Council (IIC): Where Visionaries Turn Dreams into Reality.
The IISWBM Innovation Council (IIC) is the driving force behind fostering an entrepreneurial culture within the institute. With a mission to nurture innovation and business acumen, IIC provides students with the necessary support, mentorship, and resources to transform their ideas into successful ventures.
IIC operates as an incubator for aspiring entrepreneurs, offering seed funding from the college to eliminate financial constraints and accelerate promising start-ups. The council also connects students with industry experts, providing valuable mentorship, networking opportunities, and real-world business insights to help them navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship.
At IIC, we believe in empowering the youth to break through traditional barriers and create their own entrepreneurial journeys. We provide a structured platform for individuals to turn innovative ideas into scalable businesses, ensuring that creativity and ambition translate into tangible success.
ENTREPRERNA, the Annual Corporate and Social Entrepreneurship Summit of IISWBM, is a flagship event under IIC that focuses on funding and mentoring future visionaries. This summit connects aspiring entrepreneurs with investors, offering a platform to present groundbreaking ideas and secure financial backing. In addition to investment opportunities, ENTREPRERNA facilitates interactive sessions where accomplished entrepreneurs share their experiences, challenges, and strategies for success.
