The entrepreneurship development center LIVE (Laboratory for Innovation, Venturing and Entrepreneurship) of the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Kozhikode is organising a Women Entrepreneurship Summit called UNARUKA 2.0.
The summit is organized by the institute in collaboration with CMA (Calicut Management Association). It is aimed at inspiring women in the region to take up entrepreneurship.
Debashis Chatterjee, Director of IIM Kozhikode, said that women are naturally talented to drive entrepreneurial ventures and that the socially progressive state of Kerala is more inclined to produce successful women entrepreneurs.
"IIMK LIVE is the institute's effort to impact the society and economy through contributing to the startup ecosystem. I am glad that it has, along with the CMA, decided to take up the challenge to promote women entrepreneurship", he added.
Chatterjee further stated, "Don't blame the market. Market is mechanical and adaptability is important for the founders. Adjust yourself to the market. There is no formula or shortcut for entrepreneurial success."
