SHUBHAM LAKRA

"I started at EDHEC in 2014 and, before graduating, my business was up and running thanks to the EDHEC incubator. This was made possible by a programme grounded in experiential learning, an accessible alumni network, and supportive professors. Indeed, the alumni network proved invaluable, as I formed a very successful business partnership with a fellow EDHEC alumnus. My entrepreneurial education began even before my specialisation, with a gap year for internships, and continued with projects that built on the curriculum throughout the year. To top it off, we concluded our studies in Silicon Valley, getting up close with the world's most successful start-ups. This programme helped to give me confidence in both my professional and personal lives."
