Meerut, July 5 – In a significant move aimed at nurturing future business leaders and global entrepreneurs, Shri Venkateshwara University, Meerut, has entered into an academic collaboration with Pune-based Entrology Business School, a premier institution in entrepreneurship education and an academic affiliate of the London School of Business and Finance, UK.
The two institutions signed a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) during a special ceremony held at the university’s Dr. C.V. Raman Auditorium. The agreement marks a crucial step toward providing Indian graduates with international exposure and entrepreneurial training.
As part of the program, graduates from any stream — Arts, Science, or Commerce — will undergo an 11-month intensive training, including 8 months in Pune and 3 months in London. The course aims to transform young graduates into global entrepreneurs, capable of generating employment rather than merely seeking it.
Speaking on the occasion, Shri Sudhir Giri, Founder Chairman of the Venkateshwara Group, emphasized the need to shift the national focus from job seekers to job creators.
> “If we are truly committed to realizing the Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a Developed India by 2047, we must empower youth to become entrepreneurs who can create sustainable livelihoods for others,” Giri said.
Prof. Bhupesh Gupta, CEO of Entrology Business School, underlined the importance of global training and real-world exposure:
> “We aim to deliver a world-class entrepreneurial education that blends innovation, leadership, and international business strategies, making students future-ready for a globalized economy.”
Dr. Rajeev Tyagi, Pro-Vice Chancellor of Shri Venkateshwara University, stated that the collaboration will produce a robust cohort of empowered youth leaders.
> “With a curriculum grounded in innovation and global business dynamics, this partnership will unlock thousands of employment opportunities across India and abroad,” he said.
Prof. Krishna Kant Dave, Vice Chancellor of the university, hailed the MoU as a landmark development.
> “This academic partnership is a milestone that will shape the future of entrepreneurial education in the country,” he noted.
The ceremony commenced with the traditional lamp-lighting before the idol of Goddess Saraswati. Several dignitaries including Chief Advisor Prof. V.P.S. Arora, Registrar Shri Piyush Pandey, Group Advisor Prof. R.S. Sharma, Legal Director Dev Pratap Singh, CFO Vikas Bhatia, and senior officials Dr. Mohit Sharma, Vishal Sharma, Maroof Chaudhary, Tanuj Kamboj, Arun Goswami, Shubham Chaudhary, and others were present.
From the Meerut campus, Dr. Pratap Singh and Media In-charge Shri Vishwas Rana also attended the ceremony.
The agreement is expected to serve as a launchpad for ambitious graduates, equipping them with the skills, mindset, and international experience needed to succeed in the global business landscape.
