Dr. BVR Mohan Reddy School of Innovation and Entrepreneurship (BVR SCIENT), in collaboration with the Department of Entrepreneurship and Management, IIT Hyderabad, launched SCIENT SPARK, a structured and immersive two-month entrepreneurship program designed for students and early-stage entrepreneurs.
SCIENT SPARK offers a holistic and hands-on approach to entrepreneurship, guiding participants through key methodologies such as design thinking, opportunity recognition, market analysis, and prototyping. The program is structured to culminate in creating a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and a compelling pitch deck, equipping participants with the tools needed to transform innovative ideas into viable ventures.
Combining faculty-led sessions with insights from start-up founders and industry mentors, SCIENT SPARK ensures a perfect balance of academic rigor and real-world exposure. Dedicated working sessions led by seasoned entrepreneurs provide participants with focused mentorship to refine their ideas into actionable business opportunities. The program also offers continuous offline resources and guidance, creating an ecosystem that nurtures entrepreneurial potential at every step.

Programs like this are critical for creating a strong entrepreneurial ecosystem that bridges academic knowledge with real-world application.
