Entrepreneurial Development Cell (EDC) is a special interest group under Technical Board of the Students Gymkhana Council, IIT Guwahati and is responsible for activities and initiatives which would instil and promote the spirit of entrepreneurship amongst the IITG community as well as the youth of North-East India. To foster an environment which is conducive to entrepreneurship, we at EDC organize lectures, events and workshops to create a platform for them to realize their potential and showcase their bright ideas in front of public and industry.

We at EDC believe that original and innovative ideas, having the potential to change industry by creating value, are formed in young minds. Moulding these ideas into successful ventures and tapping the entrepreneurial talent of such young minds stands as the prime motive for us. We try to provide adequate resources, extensive network and all kinds of support along with the appropriate platform for aspiring young entrepreneurs to hone their ideas. Continuous efforts are made to ensure that right guidance in this direction is given to anyone who approaches EDC for assistance from the institute or the region. We are in the process of creating an elaborate network consisting of mentors, venture capitalists, incubators, corporate, industry and experts which is not only of great help to budding entrepreneurs but also brings EDC into the core network of E-Cells in India.
