If the answer to both the question is YES, then congratulations! You are not alone. Almost every school that we visit, we find the same problem. They have a number of students who have been bitten by this new bug – entrepreneurship. But, what are we really doing to keep these students engaged in things they are passionate about?
Our team deliberated with educators and understood the need to create an opt-in model of programmatic learning. ThinkStartup eClub offers a unique in-class program, designed by leading entrepreneurship experts specifically for students from class 4 to 12.
This program is offered as a School Club and provides them know-how, tools and guidance to grow their passions.

The experience at our eClub also helps them build a powerful entrepreneurship profile for college admissions. we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.”
