The College organized a Business Ideation to Implementation workshop on March 31, 2023, in the Society Hall. The workshop was conducted by Dr. Sudipto Bhattacharya, a Certified Entrepreneurship Educator from STVP, Stanford University, and a Professor of Innovation, Entrepreneurship, Marketing Management, and Strategy. The workshop commenced with a welcome speech by the Dean of Student Affairs, Prof. Dilip Shah who thereafter felicitated Dr. Sudipto Bhattacharya with a memento.
Dr. Bhattacharya began the workshop with an interesting activity where he distributed Threads of equal lengths among the students and asked them to tie them around their hands, find a partner and tangle their threads in a way that seemed impossible to get out of it. Then he asked the students to find a solution to this problem by freeing themselves. Through this activity, Dr. Bhattacharya taught the students that there is always a way to solve a problem if we think creatively.
The speaker then engaged the students in several fun activities that taught them the importance of having a balance between the head and heart while executing an idea. Dr. Bhattacharya emphasized the importance of teamwork and how an entrepreneur must have a team where the strength of each member complements to cover the other member’s weaknesses. He also highlighted the fact that the idea for a business lies within an individual, but the demand for that idea is in the market around us.
Dr. Bhattacharya further explained that understanding the target audience’s needs is critical before working on a product. He also highlighted that every individual thinks differently when it comes to solving a problem, and that is why diversity in a team is essential. The speaker introduced the students to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and how entrepreneurs can build a product to solve one or more of these SDGs. Dr. Bhattacharya cautioned the students not to share their business idea with anyone without signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
The workshop was informative and engaging, and the students found it to be a great learning experience. Dr. Bhattacharya’s insights and expertise in the field of entrepreneurship and business ideation were invaluable, and the students appreciated the opportunity to learn from him. The event was a huge success, and it was an excellent initiative by the college to educate the students about entrepreneurship and what goes into it from the stage of ideation to Implementation.
