Entrepreneurship Hub (eHub) in Schools
Make young minds in your school future ready
“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
Peter Drucker
In the rapidly changing world of 21st century, schools have the responsibility to prepare their students to grapple with the pace of change and equip them for success.
The differentiation between great schools and good schools is the quality of focus on new age competencies like creativity, critical thinking and problem solving, communication, collaboration and technology awareness.
To address this need, ThinkStartup worked with the leading educators to design a learning intervention that works hand-in-hand with schools academic curricula. The deliberations also included study of New Education Policy 2020 to identify missing links in pathways to 21st century success.
This gave birth to a brand new program Entrepreneurship Hub (eHub) that is aimed at developing essential competencies for the future workforce and entrepreneurs of tomorrow. eHub offers a unique in-school program to nurture the innovation and entrepreneurial spirit within students from class 4 to class 12. It includes modern engaging pedagogical approaches like inquiry based learning (IBL) and project based learning (PBL) for holistic education.

“Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.”

The standard model of eHub runs over 6 months in a school.The eHub program is designed on well defined entrepreneurial competencies. Students are gradually exposed to the building blocks of entrepreneurship from beginners to intermediate to proficient levels.
ThinkStartup experts have categorised entrepreneurial competencies can be divided in three dimensions:
- Entrepreneurship Knowledge and Skills: This includes knowledge of designing and building products and services, branding, packaging, pricing, small scale operations, costs and sustainability.
- Entrepreneurial Mindset: This includes curiosity for creativity and innovation to identify opportunities, gathering resources to build a business, taking bearable risks and managing it, persistence in the face of adversity and being ethical to win consumers trust. Students also learn to embrace challenges, view setbacks as opportunities for learning, and persevere in the face of difficulties.
- Entrepreneurial Execution and Work Ethics: This includes developing a conscious bias for getting things done, goal clarity, being resourceful, work division, team building and collaboration, active communication
The program follows a two pronged approach to learning. First we give exposure to concepts of creativity, design, design thinking, innovation and entrepreneurship concepts. Thereafter, students work on individual and group action projects where they put their learning to application after each session.
