Bring world-class entrepreneurship to your campus without building it yourself
Most students graduate without ever trying to build
Entrepreneurship is often taught as theory, if at all. Very few students get the chance to explore ideas, test them, and learn what it actually takes to build something of their own.
Wadhwani Ignite changes that.
