The Entrepreneurship Cell of IIT Madras aims to unlock students’ latent inventive potential. We are a non-profit student-run organisation, with the mission to make the entrepreneurial world more accessible to all the young minds and startups out there and simultaneously mould our country towards attaining a self-sustainable status.
Over the years, Entrepreneurship Cell is known to have nurtured some of the best startups in the entrepreneurship arena like Detect Technologies (Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia), Clueso (YC23), Galaxeye and many more, and had the privilege to work under leaders like Mr Tarun Mehta, founder of the recently turned unicorn Ather Energy, who headed the organisation during his Institute Days.
