Entrepreneurship Development in Business Schools:An Analysis of Initiatives in Delhi and NCR

Promoting entrepreneurship development demands the fulfilment of three conditions: a stock of young graduates who have business sense, developed through a process of practical business education; a support system in the form of business incubators to help business ideas evolve through gestation and be realised in their birth; and finally, governmental support in the form of business friendly policies and smooth implementation thereof. While the business schools have no responsibility for and control over the government policies and their implementation, the onus of rolling out batches of enterprising students is their responsibility. The objective of the study is to make a comparative analysis (qualitative) of the efforts made by the business schools, with a focus on those who have their own entrepreneurship cells, in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR), towards entrepreneurship education. Based on the analysis and findings of the study a model has been evolved to enhance the effectiveness of delivery of entrepreneurship education.
