SP Jain Dubai observed Jaguars excel at the Entrepreneurship Weekend Challenge called ‘Entrepreneurship - Tech Startup Weekend 2018’ in its Smart Cities edition that took place from 25th to 27th January 2018. The 54-hour event focuses on students showcasing their capabilities covering the aspects of action, innovation, and education. The students while competing can take the assistance of their industrial mentors, who guide them based on their years of professional experience. This year’s event allowed Jaguars to elevate learning into application and get a clear understanding on how products transform into full-fledged businesses.


 
The Entrepreneurship Weekend Challenge marked some remarkable victories of Jaguars, who won the best student team award, thereby giving them a direct entry to StartAD beyond the pitch program. It also gave them a direct entry for the RAK seaside Startup summit, which is taking place from 8th February to 12th February 2018. Presented by INFINITI Lab, the event took place in innovation hubs: Dubai Futures Foundation and 2071 space, which is located in Emirates Towers. The students were ecstatic and actively participated in the event that is designed to offer superior experiential education for technical and non-technical entrepreneurs.

“The start up techstars event was an amazing experience. We got to learn a lot from the mentors. They had really good advice and helped shape our start up idea. The other teams all had great ideas. The structure of the event is unique and really challenged us to work hard.” Said
