ENTREPRENEURSHIP
Promoting entrepreneurship in
bioinformatics and biotechnology is one of IBAB's mandates.
IBAB's first activity in this area was theincubation of an immunologist
entrepreneur. As a founder member of the National Entrepreneurship
Network (NEN), the institute is now expanding its efforts in this
realm. We have extended company-starting assistance to include
mentoring. In addition there will be several programs for and by
students. The students have formed an entrepreneurship club, Pracint,
which held its maiden programme during Bangalore Bio2004. The institute
organizes courses, lecture series and other events, workshops and
networking events either on our premises or elsewhere, for various
audiences.
