KLH Global Business School (KLH GBS) has officially launched its ‘Innovation Cell’ to nurture student entrepreneurship and creativity. The initiative aims to provide mentorship, resources, and industry connections, helping students—particularly those from family-run businesses and aspiring entrepreneurs—transform their ideas into reality.
The Innovation Cell is open to all KLH GBS students with an entrepreneurial mindset and a passion for innovation. Students will gain access to mentorship from faculty and industry experts, business idea validation support, and potential incubation opportunities. Some students have already expressed excitement about the initiative, with one stating, “This platform will help us turn our ideas into real businesses with expert guidance.”
KLH GBS seeks to collaborate with leading incubators, venture capital firms, and industry experts to provide students with real-world exposure. The Innovation Cell is actively working to establish partnerships with business incubators and startup networks, with plans to sign MoUs with leading startup accelerators. This will ensure students have direct access to funding opportunities and investor networks, in addition to various training programs and expert talks.
Er. Koneru Lakshman Havish, Vice President, remarked, “We are committed to creating an ecosystem where creativity and opportunity intersect. This new hub is designed to empower aspiring entrepreneurs by providing them with the tools, resources, and mentorship needed to turn their innovative ideas into reality. By nurturing the next generation of leaders, we strive to drive transformative change and make a lasting impact on industries around the globe.”
