Recently, I was invited as a judge at the Entrepreneurship Challenge hosted by Jayshree Periwal International School. The enthusiasm, creativity, and remarkable confidence showcased by the students during the pitching competition left me truly inspired. Observing young minds engaging with entrepreneurship at an early stage is heartwarming, yet it raises important questions. Are these aspiring entrepreneurs missing out on essential education before starting their own businesses? Or is it the education system that needs a blending of traditional education with real-world skills? Such events prompt us to reconsider the balance between academia and entrepreneurial spirit. Kudos to Jayshree Periwal International School for fostering an environment that nurtures forward-thinking. Also, what do you think – how early is too early when it comes to preparing our youngsters for entrepreneurship? 🤔🚀 Ayush Periwal Aakriti Periwal #EntrepreneurshipChallenge #JayshreePeriwalInternationalSchool #youngentrepreneurs #entrepreneurialeducation #academia #entrepreneurialspirit #realworldskills #youthentrepreneurship

Rural entrepreneurs encounter unique challenges, with a significant lack of information and support being among the most common obstacles to understanding crucial business operations. We also realised that many of these entrepreneurs have already solved issues that are still a challenge for someone else. Sharing the knowledge held by the rural entrepreneur community could be highly beneficial for those in the process of establishing their own businesses.
