Entrepreneurship Orientation to Children

15th National Summer Camp on Entrepreneurial Stimulation for Children in the age group of 12 - 16 years (up to 10th grade)

THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR THEM....
Children can be the harbingers of change and awakening, if nurtured suitably. These young saplings can grow into innovative, persistent and creative individuals with proper grooming.
Enterprising values, which come in with this result-oriented grooming, play a significant role in shaping the personality of these children. Such holistically groomed children will always leave impressions, with their unique eye for opportunities and the ability to turn them into maximum advantage on account of their strikingly winning attributes.
Through National Summer Camps on Entrepreneurial Stimulation, Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India seeks to inculcate high enterprising values in the children in the age group of 12 to 16 years. The Institute has been organizing such Summer and Winter Camps for children across the nation for the last twelve years. The Camps at EDI, Ahmedabad alone have stimulated 639 children so far. It now announces the 15th Camp in the series, to be organised during May 04-09 ,2008.
