Indian Institute of Management – Tiruchi (IIM-T) plans to offer free consultancy through its proposed incubation centre in the areas of finance, branding, human resource management and marketing.
According to Prof Prafulla Agnihotri, Director, IIM, the initiative is intended to impart an economic thrust to the region. It will be akin to OPD (Outpatient Department) in hospitals. Prospective entrepreneurs will be provided space to operate at a very nominal cost and centralised facilities will be made available free of cost.
Even after they moved out after establishing their businesses, the centre will continue to render hand-holding support.
Entrepreneurship in manufacturing sector is the key for the growth of the regional economy. Faculties will visit the incubation centre on a daily basis and render free consultancy for small and medium enterprises.
