Conversations @ JGU: Education, Innovation & Entrepreneurship

Описание: Boasting the biggest youth population in the world, India appears to be in the midst of a tremendous possibility. This “demographic window” places the country at the threshold of an exciting future, where innovation and entrepreneurship hold a special place.

Can young India become a hub for talent and innovation? How can higher education evolve beyond traditional courses to offer the diversity of skills and knowledge needed to match the entrepreneurial aspirations of our younger generations? Is an entrepreneur born, or can education play a role in igniting the spark of entrepreneurship?

In the sixth episode of Conversations @ JGU, Prof. (Dr.) Mayank Dhaundiyal, who is a Professor of Strategy, Innovation and Entrepreneurship at JGU and Vice Dean at the Jindal School of Banking & Finance (JSBF), explores entrepreneurship & innovation in contemporary India in a fascinating conversation with host, Prof. Arjya B. Majumdar, Dean of Admissions & Outreach, JGU.

They go on to discuss the newly launched B.A. (Hons.) in Finance & Entrepreneurship—a cutting-edge programme that seeks to transform high school graduates into financially-aware leaders who are equipped to launch their own successful ventures.

Prof. Dhaundiyal has more than a decade of academic and administrative experience at premier institutions in India and across the globe. He holds a Ph.D. in Strategic Management and an M.Sc. in Marketing from Technological University Dublin, Ireland. As a widely published research scholar, he brings key, contemporary insights to his teachings.
