<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-weight: normal;"><br />
</span><span style="color: #222222;">Aakash<span style="font-weight: normal;"> was

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">The
event saw participation from zealous entrepreneurs driven towards their
start-up dreams. The </span>keynote speaker<span style="font-weight: normal;"> for the event was </span></span><span style="color: blue;">Mr. Anshul Dave</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">, </span><span style="color: #222222;">Co-</span>founder Oceans Bridge<span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">. Mr. Dave an </span><span style="color: #222222;">angel investor</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"> himself having funded numerous startups
and being on the advisory board of 6 startups with vast experience of mentoring
more than 10,000 students </span><span style="color: #222222;">gave a deep insight about startup culture in
India and abroad</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">. He also discussed about the Tax planning and structure’s
importance from startup’s perspective, helping companies setup their
organizations abroad. The major takeaways from his profound insights were the
</span><span style="color: #222222;">importance of setting up the right goals, IPR protection, building
relations, PR skills and chasing the correct geography for
operations. </span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">It was followed by sharing of experiences and
insights from founders of various well- established startups. </span><span style="color: blue;">Mr. Malay Jain</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">, </span><span style="color: #222222;">founder
of </span>Encore Projects Pvt Ltd<span style="font-weight: normal;">, </span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">an
alumnus of IIM Raipur itself shared the prerequisites of being an entrepreneur.
Mr. Jain having a </span><span style="color: #222222;">land bank network</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"> of </span><span style="color: #222222;">more than 5000 acres</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"> gave an insight
about the </span><span style="color: #222222;">Agro based business</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">. The session also witnessed yet another
personality - </span><span style="color: blue;">Mr. Kaustubh Dharmadhikary</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"> who shared his unique experience about the hurdles
faced by an entrepreneur. He said </span><span style="background: white; color: #252525; font-weight: normal;">Entrepreneurship comes with a host of challenges. Rewarding
challenges, but harsh challenges nonetheless. Experienced entrepreneurs have to
deal with this no matter how long they’ve been in business -- trying to
establish a brand, adjust to match or exceed the competition and keep your
business profitable no matter how many years you’ve been in business.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">The
session further boosted up when students of IIM Raipur with various budding
startups shared their ideas. </span><span style="color: blue;">D Santosh</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">,
a </span><span style="color: #222222;">PGP 2<sup>nd</sup> year student</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">, presented his Business </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">model, </span><span style="color: #222222;">REVSMART</span><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"> -
a technology start-up, building customized wearable for vehicles, to help college
students, employees, and enthusiasts to connect to their vehicle and enhance
their driving experience.<br /><br />
</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">In all the meet saw a healthy discussion between the entrepreneurs and the
students from the institute, and revolved around the four key challenges faced
by a start-up – that of integrating, funding, answering the going concern and
tackling attrition. The discussion ended on a high for both the students and
the entrepreneurs with the students learning the inner mechanisms, hurdles and
subsequently bottlenecks for start-up. Also it provided a platform where the
speakers themselves gained newer perspectives from the other visiting
entrepreneurs and students.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">Lastly the meet ended with an informal yet fruitful
interaction between the entrepreneurs and the students with the former sharing
their unique business vision and their business models with the budding
entrepreneurs. </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">Entrepreneurs were evangelists for their cause and
were more than happy to share their hard-won lessons of success, failure, and
everything in between. The underlying message: </span>setting out on one's own
requires more than courage – it requires a great idea, and lots of work</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"> was
the take key take away from Aakash 9.0.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;">Social entrepreneurship is all about incorporating all three to create business plans that are both feasible and beneficial to the society. To foster this spirit in the minds of young and budding entrepreneurs, the Consulting and Entrepreneurship Club, IIM Raipur organised Samaadhan, a social B-Plan competition which saw people solving real world problems using inquisitive and innovative tools.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In the words of Jay Abraham, “You are surrounded by simple,
obvious solutions that can dramatically increase your income, power, influence
and success. The problem is, you just don’t see them.” Consultants are the
people who are entrusted to solve the above problem.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12.0pt;">The objective of the Consulting Conclave was

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12.0pt;">The guests also took part in an interactive session
with the budding entrepreneurs who came to attend the event from all over the
country. The young entrepreneurs gained useful insight about how to use
consulting as a tool in order to gain competitive advantage in the ferociously
competitive start-up landscape. The conclave also presented them a chance to
build a wider network.</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-IN;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

to be valued at $350 billion globally, the consulting industry has seen a steep
up-shoot in the past few years. The firms globally are using innovative
Go-to-Market strategies, surveying and understanding the target market and
using out-of-the box brand communication strategies. </span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12.0pt;">In this era
of growing consulting roles, the students can benefit from analysing the trends
of the consulting world, understanding the mind-set of a consultant and
developing key skills needed to excel at the role.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">On the 6 th and 7 th of August 2016, 1 st year students of IIM Raipur had their first tryst with the </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">management consulting industry. The workshop was organised by </span><span style="color: blue;">Backspace Consulting</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">, a </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">renowned consulting firm based out of Kolkata and conducted by its </span>Founder and CEO<span style="font-weight: normal;">, </span><span style="color: #351c75;">Mr. Partha Pratim</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Mr. Partha, an IIM Ahmedabad pass out, had the experience of working in several major </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">consulting firms before starting his own venture, Backspace Consulting. Backspace, which started off </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">as an education consulting firm has expanded into the communication and strategy consulting </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">space. </span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">The session was spanned across two days where on the first day, students were introduced to </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">various techniques and frameworks like </span>Guesstimation<span style="font-weight: normal;">, </span>BCG matrix<span style="font-weight: normal;">, </span>Ansoff matrix<span style="font-weight: normal;">, </span>SWOT analysis<span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">and </span>Porter 5 force model<span style="font-weight: normal;">, among others. These frameworks are prerequisites for an aspiring </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">consultant. Mr. Partha made sure that the students became well versed with these techniques by </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">taking up basic real life case lets. </span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">On the second day, some more practical case lets were taken up </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">before shifting focus to mock interviews. Students were given glimpse of how a consulting interview </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">is conducted and how they would be tested on their creativity, analytical skills and ability to think on </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">their feet. He gave tips on how to direct your thinking process in interview situations, by applying </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">the techniques taught on the first day. He closed the session by giving insights into the life of a </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">management consultant and the challenges that come along and answered any questions students </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">had about consulting as a career option. </span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">On the whole, it was a great learning experience for the </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">students and gave them a taste of rigours and requirements of the consulting world.</span></h3>

through video conferencing. Business ideas to help the physically challenged,
promote indigenous products, skill development programs, health problems and waste
management were put forth with clarity and intricate details by each of the participating
teams. A detailed business model, supply chain margins, financial statements
forecasts, the teams had them all planned out. The passion and zeal with which each
wanted to make a difference to the society was visible in the gleam of the eyes
of each participant.</span>
