Entrepreneurship awareness must permeate into folds of every section of society; and one way of achieving this is by disseminating its advantages through the medium of training and education. EDII understands this well its success stories are the testimonies of this phenomenon.

EDII is headed by Dr. Sunil Shukla who has been closely associated, for more than three decades now, with entrepreneurship education, research, training and institution building. Dr. Shukla has envisioned and designed innovative, outcome based programmes and developmental interventions in ‘entrepreneurship’ and ‘intrapreneurship’, that have ensured sustainable results in terms of increased efficiency and performance, for varied target groups including students, faculty, business executives, bankers, managers, disadvantaged sections, family business successors, administrators and business counsellors.
Entrepreneurship as a discipline is experiencing a strong upsurge, more so; with Government, industry and institutions working in close cooperation. We also see innovative initiatives and result-oriented measures in place, to create a congenial ecosystem for entrepreneurship. EDII reaches out to diverse sections and sectors of people, across the country, seeing them realise their entrepreneurial dreams. My advice to all wannabe entrepreneurs is that they must equip themselves with knowledge, skills and attitude and let their dreams soar.
