The IPM Entrepreneurship and Industry Connect Cell (IPM E-Cell) at IIM Indore functions as a dynamic hub for fostering entrepreneurial spirit and bridging the gap between academia and industry. At the core of its mission lies the cultivation of a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem within the institute. Through its flagship program, Escalon, the IPM E-Cell offers a platform for aspiring student entrepreneurs, facilitating a Seed Investment Fund that provides not only financial backing but also invaluable mentorship and guidance, enabling students to translate their innovative concepts into feasible business ventures.
Going beyond Escalon, the IPM E-Cell is deeply committed to enhancing industry connections and equipping students with the requisite skills and knowledge to thrive in today’s fiercely competitive business landscape. It acknowledges that successful entrepreneurship demands more than mere ideation; it necessitates a thorough comprehension of market dynamics, industry trends, and effective business methodologies. To achieve this objective, the IPM E-Cell orchestrates an array of activities, including workshops, guest lectures, national-level events, live projects, internships, and networking sessions. These initiatives serve as conduits for knowledge dissemination and collaboration, fostering synergy among students, faculty, alumni, and industry professionals.
