DEBM - Diploma in Enterpreneurship & Business Management
The post liberalization industrial & economic scenario in India makes it imperative that a more dynamic and pragmatic approach
is needed to create entrepreneurs on a large scale. This would help not only in tackling the problem of unemployment but also
in the growth of new entrepreneurs. Using technology and quality as their strategic tools, those who can take on the
increased competition in the domestic as well as the global markets are innovators and entrepreneurs in true sense of the term.
This can be achieved only if more and more people are motivated and convinced to choose entrepreneurship as a
career and put their energies and resources to a productive use.
Various state level entrepreneurship development institutes, as well as EDI, the pioneer in entrepreneurship development,
have, for decades, been conducting localized entrepreneurship development programs (EDP’s) for a limited number of people.
These EDP’s have limitations in terms of number and reach and cannot fulfill the needs of a large number of potential
entrepreneurs scattered in the vast geographical areas of the country. This calls for a novel approach.
To address in this need of developing new, committed entrepreneurs on a large scale, the EDI, Ahmadabad has
conceptualized and launched an innovative entrepreneurship development programme through distance learning
and personal counseling titled “Diploma in Entrepreneurship and Business Management”.
