IIT Kharagpur is organizing a great event – Startup Camp, as part of its Entrepreneurship Summit 09.
The reason why the event deserves a mention is because its objectives and agenda are quite different from the regular B-Plan competitions that are organized elsewhere.
Some of the points they hope to address:
* Compensations available in start-ups
* Sustenance of start-ups
* Funding: The advantages of getting an angel fund or venture capitalists on board
* What to look for in a start-up before joining them as interns or employees?
* Avenues that open up for students employed in start-ups
* Dealing with peer pressure.
* What are start-ups looking for?
* And above all, why start off on your own.
The event will take place on Sunday – January 11, 2009 from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at IIT Kharagpur.

If you can make it, I’d definitely recommend attending the event.
