Young Entrepreneurs in Gujarat: Turning Dreams into Reality
Newzdaddy Business Updates
In a country with a lot of young people, like India, it’s essential to help them learn useful skills. India has millions of young people who can help the country grow and improve, but they need the right skills and opportunities to do that.
UNDP India, with support from the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, is working hard to give young people the skills they need. They are doing this in both rural and urban areas through things like career guidance, modern training, and programs to help young people start their own businesses.
Some projects like Excel, Code Unnati, and Youth Co-Lab have already made a big difference in the lives of 500,000 young people. They have helped make the job market in India stronger.
Recently, under Project Excel, UNDP held the Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge. This challenge gave young people a chance to show their business ideas and get support to start their companies.
