The builders before you
They built first. Now build yours.
With honest and straightforward business principles, close and careful attention to details, and ability to take advantage of favourable opportunities and circumstances, there is a scope for success.
If you are looking for perfect safety, you will do well to sit on a fence and watch the birds; but if you really wish to learn, you must mount a machine and become acquainted with its tricks by actual trial.
Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results! I know several thousand things that won't work.
I have built my own factory on my own ground.
The one thing needful was not so much the establishment of Technological Institutes as the initiative, the dash, the pluck, the resourcefulness in our youths…
One must forever strive for excellence, or even perfection, in any task however small, and never be satisfied with the second best.
Failure is not about not succeeding. Rather, it is about not putting in your best effort and not contributing, however modestly, to the common good.
The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything.

What happens.
Entrepreneurship in Action is a ground‑up programme for the AI era. Students build and deploy a working product with AI, step by step, rather than only studying business. They use “vibe coding”: describing what they want in plain language and shaping it into something live on the internet. The result is a new kind of literacy: the agency and working knowledge to run a one‑person business, where a single motivated person, plus AI, can do what once took a whole team.

Yes. Scholarships are awarded on merit: use "Request a scholarship" below, tick "Apply for a merit scholarship", and write one white paper on our brief. Strong papers can win 50% or the full fee. We never ask about family finances.
Will the student receive a certificate?
Yes. Every participant receives a certificate of participation, and standout work is eligible for publication through One Young India. Publication depends on review and is not guaranteed.
Does the student need to know how to code?
No. This is “vibe coding”: students direct AI in plain language to build a working product. The skill they gain is agency, not syntax.
