Entrepreneurship for Engineers

What is Entrepreneurship for Engineers?

Ever feel like you've got a killer technical idea, but you're not sure how to turn it into a real business? That's where this course comes in. Think of it as the ultimate cheat sheet for engineers who want to build their own company. We'll take you beyond the formulas and circuit diagrams and teach you how to actually make a business out of your brilliant idea.

Why is This Course for You?

You're a problem-solver by nature. You're great at building things, fixing things, and making things work. But starting a company is a whole different ballgame. It's about finding a problem that people will pay you to solve. It’s about building a team, raising money, and learning to tell a story that makes people want to invest in you.

This course is designed to teach you all of that, in plain English/Urdu/Punjabi. We’ll walk you through topics like:

Idea: Is the idea worth for entrepreneurship?

Finding your people: Who actually has this problem, and how do you find them?

The business part: How do you turn a great idea into a profitable business model?

Getting funded: The secrets to talking to investors and getting the money you need.

Telling your story: How to pitch your idea in a way that gets people excited and makes them believe in you.

By the time you've completed the course, you won't just be an engineer; you'll be a founder. You'll have a clear plan, a compelling pitch, and the confidence to take your idea from your notebook to the real world.
