Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital

An individual who creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and enjoying most of the rewards is an entrepreneur and the process by which the business is set up known as entrepreneurship. The main characteristics of an entrepreneur lies in innovation, and bringing in new ideas, goods, services, and business/or procedures. However, there is a difference between Entrepreneurship and small business. Many consider a small business and an entrepreneurial venture as the same, but they are completely different. While a small business means an independent business with a smaller number of employees, with the intention of doing something which carries less innovation and low impact on the business environment, an entrepreneurial venture becomes successful when an organization pursues opportunities and new practices in order to have growth and profitability as its main goals. In Calcutta Business School, there has been a constant effort to create entrepreneurs through regular trainingand developmental programmes, through workshops. We also have a tie-up with NEN (National Entrepreneurship Network), Wadhwani Foundation where students are motivated to learn, create Projects and present in the presence of esteemed panellists.

Digital Marketing

The very first search engine, Archie was born in the early 90’s and soon after, the concept of search engine optimisation followed suit. But the first real web-based advertisement launched in 1994 by HotWired saw the advent of use of internet in marketing. The late 90’s saw many websites like Google and Yahoo which actually marked the way for the digital space for the consumers. The millennial period witnessed the dotcom bubble forcing the world of marketing slowly to shift from analog to digital mode in their endeavour to reach out to more number of prospects. And in the last decade, the upsurge of Internet Marketing has reached a level where most of the marketers opted for digital space to reach out to more number of customers. The internet without any doubt has become one of the most vulnerable tool for marketers to communicate with their prospects in offering goods and services. It has changed the way we communicate; we seek information and we do business. The most popular channels of Digital Marketing are social media like facebook, Instagram, pinterest, linkedin, google+, twitter etc. CBS Centre of Excellence in Digital Marketing stresses on delivering theoretical knowledge and using the platforms in the form of organising conclaves, competitions, webinars, and also encourages its faculty members and students in exploring new vistas of enriching digital platforms through their thoughts and actions.
