Cohort 2 of build3’s Impact Startup Academy (ISA) was revealed. The second cohort of the ISA, which starts on Monday, November 25, closely adheres to the criteria established by the first cohort, with the intention of exceeding them. In order to help the next generation of entrepreneurs address important issues pertaining to the mind, body, and environment (building towards UN SDGs, leveraging ESG), the five-week ISA was created to help close the gap between purpose and profit.
build3 and Gaurav Singh, the nation’s first Teach for India fellow with a wealth of training and educational expertise, collaborated to construct the ISA. To assist them make a difference by putting purpose and profit first at the same time, 100 aspiring impact entrepreneurs will be hosted by the second cohort.
The next generation of entrepreneurs will also benefit from the course by learning how to include sustainability into the core of their solutions and create fresh approaches and creative business models that have a long-lasting effect.
Registrations for the ISA are currently open and can be done from the academy’s website (https://www.impactstartupacademy.com/) till the 24th of November for the upcoming cohort..
“Essentials” and “Build Together,” two unique disciplines, will be part of the ISA’s Cohort 2. Ten core sessions with videos and slides, async content, live chat with the cohort, and carefully selected supplementary resources including articles, movies, and podcasts will be available in the first track, “Essentials” (INR 1,990 only).
Everything from the Essentials track will be included in the second “Build Together” track (INR 6,990), along with live sessions, creations and assignments, weekly Q&A sessions and feedback, squads or peer groups, and a certificate from Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design, and Technology.
Three different groups of people have been targeted by the course’s design and curation: early-stage founders with an impactful concept, aspiring founders searching for an idea, and people seeking the right direction to make a difference.
Additionally, the ISA is ideally situated to help young entrepreneurs and college students by providing comprehensive coverage of market analysis, finance, entrepreneurship, the impact startup ecosystem, and other topics. But the main goal of the course is to make a lasting impression, which goes beyond learning to include constructing, guaranteeing a long-term impact on the world and society.
Key Comments
Gaurav Singh, impact entrepreneur and co-creator of the Impact Startup Academy, shared his insights ahead of ISA’s Cohort 2 by saying, “The inaugural cohort of the Impact Startup Academy was a lasting success. We were surprised by the extraordinary response, which led us to commence the second Cohort within a short time. At this cohort, our objective remains the same, to create a course that offers 360-degree knowledge for individuals to transform into impact entrepreneurs. We will try to integrate motivational examples to fuel their aspirations, introduced to a like-minded community to partner with and learn from. Our goal is to create a sustainable ecosystem where purpose and profit are seen in a singular way, building towards UN-defined SDGs and leveraging ESG norms.”
