About Udhyam:

Udhyam Learning Foundation (Udhyam) is on a mission towards Making Bharat Entrepreneurial. We believe that entrepreneurship is a powerful way to channelize an individual’s potential. Entrepreneurship enables agency and allows an individual to work on their strengths while creating value for the world.

Our programs:

• Udhyam Shiksha works on developing entrepreneurial mindsets among the youth and enabling them to achieve their potential, having impacted 40,00,000 learners across 12 Indian states.

• Udhyam Vyapaar focuses on nano businesses in India, and solving large problems faced by them, at scale; having already enabled up to a 27% income uplift for 5000+ entrepreneurs.

The goal for Udhyam is to build a thriving and supportive ecosystem, where every individual feels empowered to define their own path.

Program Overview: (Two programs are running : Entrepreneurial - Sarvo Udhyam and

Non-Entrepreneurial - Maadhyam)

Over the years, as an increasing number of students have opted for entrepreneurship as a

career and enhanced their business ideas, they have continued their journey of establishing

themselves as youth entrepreneurs. Sarvo Udhyam is an Udhyam alumni community and a

program that aims to bring the youth entrepreneurs together, from marginalised and

under-privileged sections of the society, with lesser or no access to resources and

opportunities, and eventually build a strong network of learning, sustaining and growing. For

setting up this community, Udhyam aims to work on the principles of Build-Support-Transfer

along with supporters of Sarvo Udhyam from the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Currently the

community has established two state chapters, Delhi and Punjab. The program aims at

providing mentoring support as per the maturity of the venture, in order to bolster their

growth and strengthen their presence as youth entrepreneurs.

Maadhyam is Udhyam’s novel initiative that aims to bridge the gap between government

school students in Grades 9 to 12 and opportunities beyond the classroom. The program

envisions building awareness among students from Tier 2&3 cities about different types of

opportunities and how they can support a student’s future. On the supply side, the program

undertakes the groundwork of vetting and onboarding partner organisations, and curating

and listing relevant opportunities on a student accessible platform, actively matching students

with those best suited to their interests and needs.
