Entrepreneurship in IIM Lucknow

The institute encompasses various ventures that implement the classroom theories and see the result for real. Two such businesses running inside the campus are Not Just Tea and Gossip n Bite.

Managing academics and business indeed becomes a challenge for the students but that has never stopped these budding managers. One such venture is Indofash, an online shopping website, by Pallavi A. Mohadikar from PGP 2. Indofash provides premium and exclusive Indian ethnic wears. Pallavi aims to make customers reconnect to their traditional roots and embrace the Indian culture through myriad hues and rich texture.

The students believe that these ventures are like parallel curriculum which can teach the extra bit beyond the pedagogy inside classrooms. They are driven by the fuel of passion, ignition of ideas and thrill to do something on their own.
