ABSTRACT:
The government of India has been pushing enterprise as a prominent policy aim under its administration. The young polity of the nation is uniquely susceptible to enterprise- encouraging programs. This paper studies the impact of one such program, The Delhi Government’s Business blaster program, in promoting entrepreneurship amongst its high school participants. The study is based on primary data collected from the actual participants of the program and studies the impact of the program on the entrepreneurial intentions of the participants vis-a-vis the academic prowess of participants, the family background of participants (income and occupation), and gender.
