DELHI government plans to launch an annual investment summit for its students from next year onwards which will feature some of the best ideas under its Business Blasters initiative. As part of the scheme, students in Classes XI and XII will be mentored by business coaches and are being provided ₹2,000 as seed money to help kickstart their business ideas. Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, who also holds the education portfolio, talks to The Morning Standard’s Vatsala Shrangi on his vision of Delhi government school students creating some of the world’s top-ranking companies in India, changing the approach to teaching in universities, and creating 400 seats across some of its best institutions for direct admissions to top performers. Excerpts:
The scheme aims to churn out young entrepreneurs who can become future job creators. Does the government have a plan of supporting these students/projects once they complete school?
