The inauguration ceremony saw a welcome address by Prof Damodar Acharya, former director of IIT Kharagpur, in which he extolled the young minds to make the most of their time here and spend it cultivating their urge to do something novel. This was followed by the dedication of the Rajendra Mishra School of Entrepreneurship to the nation by Dr. Devendra Mishra and Dr.Amarendra Mishra, who referred to the KGP ambience of group gatherings at places like Chhedis in their elucidation of the importance of the spartan university setting towards nurturing the entrepreneurial streak. In his keynote lecture about his entrepreneurial journey from being a consultant with BCG and a professor, Prof Paul Lillrank of Aalto University, Helsinki, elaborated on his failures and successes. The address by Dr. Hande saw a rapturous round of applause as he, in his discourse about the entrepreneurial ability, elevated the audience to the level of the everyday successes of the ordinary street vendor, from the mundane teachings of the conventional B-schools. The ceremony this evening, with all the wisdom about going the extra mile, into the realm of risk and probability, has very much set the tone for the 3-day summit that is going to see numerous workshops, guest lectures and events aimed at igniting the passion for entrepreneurship and job-creation.",
