ABOUT:
ILS EDC: – Mission: To create an environment promoting entrepreneurship among students, especially in the field of law.
With such a large and growing fraction of the legal sector launching their own firms, one must ask if law schools are doing enough to prepare law students for entrepreneurship. Owning an enterprise, legal or otherwise, is not an easy task and many seem too apprehensive to take the plunge into entrepreneurship. At the ILS EDC, we believe that there is a significant lack of exposure to entrepreneurship for law students, which has made the legal sector distant from innovation and technology.
The objectives of this cell include
• To encourage the latent entrepreneurial spirit in students
• To conduct lectures and interactive sessions introducing the essence of entrepreneurship
• To conduct sessions by successful entrepreneurs to inspire and guide the students
• To educate the students about the overlap between entrepreneurship and law
• To foster the spirit of start-up culture in the campus and beyond
• To produce successful entrepreneurs
