Prayaas, the student-driven social impact initiative at IIM Bangalore, has launched a new youth entrepreneurship programme titled Youth Udyami 2026. The initiative aims to equip aspiring young entrepreneurs with the skills, mentorship, and exposure required to transform their ideas into sustainable ventures.

This program is led by students from the Executive Post Graduate Programme in Management (EPGP) and is actively supported by their peers from the Post Graduate Programme in Enterprise Management (PGPEM). Together, they bring a rich mix of corporate experience, academic insight, and a commitment to social change.

Youth Udyami 2026 will feature workshops, one-on-one mentorship sessions, business plan competitions, and networking opportunities with successful startup founders and industry professionals. The goal is to bridge the gap between ambition and execution for youth from diverse backgrounds, especially those with limited access to formal entrepreneurial training.

With IIM Bangalore’s ecosystem backing this mission, Youth Udyami 2026 is poised to become a significant platform for nurturing the next generation of socially responsible entrepreneurs in India.
