2. MISSION
The Startup Weeks consist of lectures and workshops on entrepreneurship given to students during their summer break from their core training at the university. Its aim is to provide students with entrepreneurship skills that would apply the technical training that they have had thus far and to give students new ideas illustrating the power of
starting something with just a computer and internet.

Students taking part in this training are those who have just finished their first academic year in the university. At this point, they would have basic knowledge of computers, algorithms, networking, database, and programming in Java. In this mission, the students should get awareness of the possibilities of them starting their own business
using their future technological know-how.
The mission of the trainer include enlightening the students on the difficulties, opportunities, risks, and rewards of venturing a startup; leading and assisting the students in creating their own (mock) startup idea and development plan; and organizing a general presentation at the end of the two weeks where students have to pitch their
idea to a jury panel, including business plan, market studies, marketing strategies, wireframe, etc.
