REECODE Institute of Social Entrepreneurship (RISE) - REECODE gets rolling
REECODE seems to be rolling now, with the first major event of REECODE Institute of Social Entrepreneurship (RISE) now being scheduled for September 30 to October 2, 2007 in Solapur town of Maharashtra state of the country.
Taking a step further towards development of rural economies, the first project of RISE is to create/facilitiate/help/promote local youth into starting their own business - making themselves better off and at the same time provide employment opportunities to several more locally.
Partnering with local NGO Jai Jui, we will be holding a 3-day contest. All aspiring youth who wish to start their business will need to submit their business ideas/plans on September 30 (Sunday) and October 1 (Monday), during which we will evaluate the best team/individual from each college and take them to the final round to be held on October 2 (Gandhi birth anniversary day). Eminent panels of judges will judge the best ideas/plans and announce the winner who will get a prize money of Rs 25,000 to kick start his/her/their business.
Jai Jui has already received two sponsorships and plans have already started coming in.
Get this feel that this will snowball into something really big.
Need people - not money - to join our effort.
