The Indian School of Business (ISB) in Hyderabad has launched the 'PGP Class of 2015 Startup Fellowship' to provide early-stage financial support to aspiring student entrepreneurs.
This fellowship will provide support through ISROUTE, the school's structured pre-incubation program, which is designed to support aspiring entrepreneurs.
The initiative will be funded through the PGP Class of 2015 (Hyderabad cohort) Startup Endowment Fund, with ISB topping up the corpus to ensure sustained annual support.
It will provide an annual grant to an eligible student or student-led team from the ongoing Post Graduate Programme in Management (PGP) class to pursue their entrepreneurial ventures.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the fellowship was exchanged between Madan Pillutla, Dean, ISB, and representatives of the Hyderabad cohort of the PGP Class of 2015.
This program offers a significant opportunity for young entrepreneurs in Telangana, particularly ISB students, to transform their innovative ideas into businesses, thereby contributing to the state's economy.
