Education.
Bringing entrepreneurship into classrooms, campuses and founder schools, as a discipline rather than an accident.
Entrepreneurship is taught by accident in India today: a guest lecture, an optional elective, a hackathon once a year. WOI India treats it as a discipline instead: structured learning that starts in the classroom and continues through campus programmes, bootcamps and founder schools, so that turning an idea into a company becomes a skill anyone can learn, not a lucky break reserved for a few.
