ECONOMIST & BUSINESS MENTOR.
KOLKATA, 2 JULY 2024:
Entrepreneurship Factory:
Entrepreneurship Factory Sounds a little odd. Can we really manufacture entrepreneurs?
Well, there are two schools of thought. Some believe entrepreneurs are born while others feel entrepreneurs can be created or manufactured.
The Concept:
The concept of the business and operational framework of business has gone and is going through a revolutionary change. Twenty years back, the success parameters of business was highly dependent on the talent, intelligence, vision and belief system of the entrepreneur. A kind of embedded quality of skill and knowledge. But now, much of this skill and intelligence is available in the marketplace because of the astounding development of technology and systems.
Changing Dynamics Of Business:
Business in essence is the generation of values or value addition. Be it a product or service, customers pay for the value you offer. In exchange, you get the asking price and you make profits.
Previously, the science of value addition has been greatly dependent on the creative and logical talent of the entrepreneur. But it is not so now. This superpower and intelligence is now taken over by strides in technology like AI, ML, and Robotics.
Compared to earlier times, Entrepreneurs can now be trained and molded once training and transfer of proper skill set is done.
It is on this belief and experience of entrepreneurship building over thirty years, that the idea of setting up of Santiniketan School of Family Business was born.
