Students of Times School of Media gain entrepreneurial insights with Alumni Nandini Nandal on day two of the Future Forward Alumni-Student Conference on Thursday. In the workshop, the guest speaker highlighted the importance of the right business mindset and skills that makes a good entrepreneur.
The workshop was designed to educate budding media professionals and entrepreneurs about real-life situations and requirements in the industry. While discussing about business investments, she shared, “I want to tell you that when you are starting your own business, you need to plan out everything. How much investment do you have, how much are you putting into logistics, if you need to have employees? I own a boutique digital marketing agency and initially, I didn’t have to invest myself and that is why it’s important to have investors and seed money,” she added.
