Working for BITSAA Entrepreneurship Initiative, Mr. Sanjay Nath visited BITS-Pilani K.K.Birla Goa Campus to have an interaction with the members of Centre for Entrepreneurial Leadership (CEL) in Goa Campus on September 30th 2011. Sanjay had an interactive discussion
with Prof K.E. Raman (Director, Goa Campus), and then went straight
to meet the to-be entrepreneurs from the Goa CEL (Centre of Entrepreneurial
Leadership Team).
Amit
Raj, President – CEL, BITS Goa and members of the BITSAAD team all got together
to have a discussion around Entrepreneurship activities in and around campus.
It was an informal chat over coffee at the cafeteria in true BITSian style.
Sanjay extended great encouragement to all students who were dreaming of
starting their own companies. He offered direct advice and support via the
BITSAA network and also his venture’s extensive design – i.e. Blume Ventures to
possibly mentor and seed-fund some start-up’s from campus.
It led
to a lot of students taking notice of the ability for BITSians to come back and
provide such great confidence into ideas, vision & dreams of many a young.
We need more and more such BITSians to come back and provide a back-bone &
nurturing to support extensively student activity beyond what is done now.
