We aim to help them engage with educational institutions, including colleges and schools, to promote their products and services effectively and affordably through edutainment. While we mainly focus on education-based startups, we are also looking for corporate sponsorship.

Book our Mentors and speakers for all EDC Events

By The Startups (BTS) Community Forum works closely with several higher education institutions, including colleges and universities in Tamilnadu, South India, in the domains of mentoring and training student/institution/campus startups. We have a range of experienced and expert mentors in different areas of startup entrepreneurship and business who can mentor the students right from the ideation (idea/concept) phase, and lead them to the next phase –designing and prototyping, testing, and refining the product idea.  The best part is that we are well-equipped with technical mentors, including academicians, in emerging high-tech and innovative research areas. All our mentors are business owners, passionate enough to mentor startups in their expert domains for accelerated growth from a practical perspective. This is also our USP, as technical institutions handle only the theoretical aspects of entrepreneurship. Read more.


The Institute Industry Connect platform is part of By The Startups, one of the biggest startups and business networking and referral lead communities in South India. We have been actively serving the startup and business ecosystems since 2017, with over 4500+ basic community members fuelling their passion for entrepreneurial drive and the desire to succeed. Our endeavors to link the institutions with the wider entrepreneurial ecosystem through mentoring, training, and consulting have been widely appreciated by government organizations such as Startup India, Startup TN, Kerala Startup Mission, IIC, EDII, MSME, DIC, AICTE, DSTE, and various incubators, accelerators, EDC, Innovation, Tech Development, Skill Development, Placement, and Training Cells in institutions across Tamilnadu. We can strategically function as coordinators, mentors, trainers, members, etc., to suit the various activities of different academic and industry cells of a college or an institution, as per the commercial terms and agreements.


How can we help Institution EDCs and NEWGEN IEDC?

The mentor pool of By The Startups Community forums helps student startups in mentoring, thereby effectively closing the gap between startup ideation and development. We can help induce and enhance the culture of entrepreneurship in institutions through planned events, including entrepreneurial talks, awareness camps, mentor chats, hackathons, ideathons, conferences, webinars, and tailored events that would bring out the entrepreneurial spirit in startups. Furthermore, we can help students interact with startup founders either in their college or at startup networking events we host regularly. Suppose any institution is planning to start an EDC cell and is looking to hire an expert team of mentors to operate the cell on a consultative basis. In that case, we can help establish the framework for the smooth functioning of the institution’s EDC cell.


New Generation Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Centre (NEWGEN IEDC)

New Generation Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Centre (NewGen IEDC) is a new program launched by the National Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Development Board (NSTEDB), Department of Science & Technology (DST), Government of India. Our mentor and subject matter expert pool is trained and well-equipped to handle the various requirements of NewGen IEDC through professional guidance, mentorship, and support. We can associate with any University/Deemed University or premier Institute/College offering Engineering, Technology, and Science courses at the degree level. Get in touch with us for resource persons for all NewGen IEDC programs.

Note: Neither our founder nor BTS Mentors would work for free in any of the EDC activities under any circumstances. Institutions need to ensure they allocate the required budget, discuss the remuneration/honorarium before the start of any EDC/Skill development event and clear the commmercials post completion of the event without fail. We are ready to help institutions providing our mentors are suitably paid as agreed upon by the parties. Also note all services below require consultation charges which will be dealt with in person by the parties.


How can we help Startup Incubators & Pre-Incubators in Institutions & Colleges?

The TBIs in our country play an important role in fostering the entrepreneurial passion of startups. Our team can help establish TBI in institutions by arranging seed funds, developing the startup ecosystem, and linking the community resources to them. Our consultative services for setting up institutional TBIs include understanding the market challenges, recommending and building the appropriate service suite and networking community, writing the business plan (including the required documentation process for establishing and running the TBI), and developing its value proposition model and monetization model.

We help increase the capability of existing incubators by offering networking, mentoring, and investment opportunities through startup boot camps, investor meets, mentor guidance, and corporate connects.  The Ideation boot camps we organized, over the years, in various TBIs are much appreciated and have generated positive results, contributing to startup growth, especially in the pre-seed, seed, and early startup stages.  Are you looking for a proven pre-incubator program? Yes, we have one, before you start your TBI.  We’re ready to help startup incubators with our pool of mentors for accelerated growth. We aim to promote startup entrepreneurship and build a conducive climate for startups to grow, succeed, and excel through a powerful startup ecosystem that enables results and fuels growth.
