Key Takeaways from the Bootcamp
Aligning with the innovation competition’s spirit, the top 10 teams underwent a bootcamp organized at IIT Delhi where they got an opportunity to gain mentorship and training from experienced professors. Emphasizing on business-related learnings during the bootcamp and their importance, the team said, “We learned how to sell our idea and turn it into an actual business solution. The sessions conducted by FITT were very informative and guided us in the right direction at every step.”
Implementing Learnings: From Idea to a Working Business Model
The learnings from the bootcamp and constructive feedback from their mentors helped team Milaan shape their idea into a potential business model. Sharing their excitement over the same, the team said, “We didn’t have a business strategy at first. But the sessions during the bootcamp gave us the insights and knowledge we needed. And our idea refined so much that even we couldn’t believe it.”
