The state-of-the-art facilities of Ignite, creates an exciting ecosystem for students to collaborate using prototyping labs and a collaborative workspace. Ignite, staying true to its name is the birthplace of many start-ups. The first few years in the life of a start-up is crucial. At Sri Eshwar we give students the experience of how to convert an idea to a finished product by mentoring them through structured processes, conducting bootcamps and providing the infrastructure required to build the product. We also provide financial support if required, to support the launch of the product. Once the startup is stable and mature,, the young entrepreneurs fly off into their own offices and grow the business further. Sri Eshwar has been the birthplace of many such young entrepreneurs.
