Fearless Leadership Insights!!
His story is the American story — values from the heartland, a middle-class upbringing in a strong family, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead, and the conviction that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others. Barack Obama approaches the Presidency at a critical moment in American history, facing simultaneous crises of war, the environment, health care, but most especially in the economy. If he is able to rise to the moment, he could join the ranks of a small handful of previous presidents who have been truly transformative, succeeding in fundamentally changing our economy, society, and democracy for the better. But this will require imaginative and decisive action as Obama takes office, action bolder than he has promised during his campaign, and will be all the more difficult given the undertow of conventional wisdom in Washington and on Wall Street that resists fundamental change. Decades of regressive politics and political gridlock have left America in its most precarious situation since the onset of the Great Depression. Each president used exceptional leadership to change the national mood, and then the national policy. Solutions to our multiple challenges do exist, but they won’t be found in overly cautious or expedient quick fixes. With his exceptional skill at appealing to our better angels, Barack Obama could be the right leader at the right time to re-awaken America to the renewed promise of shared prosperity coupled with responsibility towards future generations and the international community with whom we share the Earth!!

What do we mean by a ‘Start-up’?
A typical startup is an initiative of an individual or a team to combine business management skills with innovations in technology or services. For instance an attractive technical idea to improve the security of vehicles can be elevated to the next level where the conceiver finds out the ways to implement the idea in mass, to market, to sale, to brand and to sustain the operation. On the other hand it can be a service like catering or transport or anything similar to that which is executed in an unconventional way.
Who can participate in the event?
The summit invites Engineering and Management student teams who are passionate about entrepreneurship. The team may be in different levels of their mission from a basic business idea to a fully evolved business. We welcome the teams from all the levels of maturity for the contest. This can be illustrated by the following sample cases.
1. You are a student team who have conceived an idea and believe that could make a great business opportunity. The idea appears to be unique and no specific predecessor.

A Sample Executive Summary
[This is just to illustrate the format and the flow of the expected executive summary. It may be modified appropriately based on your case]
“CLICK ONE”
Introduction
‘Click one’ is the name of our startup, where we transformed our hobby to a business. Yes, we are speaking about Photography and how our interest towards the art and the business changed our life in a span of 6 months and placed ourselves in an exciting territory. In this summary we are sharing our story where we identified our potential through our passion and we believe it would impress you a lot.
The story behind the startup
We are four mechanical engineering students Ajay, Ram, Manzoor and Thilak studying in final year. When we were celebrating the twenty first birthday of Manzoor, we had not known how that day would become an important day of our life. That day he got a presentation from his dad, which was a Digital single lens reflex camera, shortly known as DSLR.
Though we had enough experience with normal point and shoot cameras, operating an advanced DSLR camera had its own challenges. The next week end we had a walk in the evening across the nearby woods just to experiment the equipment. We managed to click randomly without worrying about all the complex settings. It was a digital one and we were able to see the output instantaneously in the small screen. But it was a great disappointment when we observed them in the computer screen.
This experience created uncontrollable curiosity in us to handle the device with more command. We spent next three months aggressively in speaking with experts, downloading tutorials from net, participating in various competitions held in web and most importantly continuously using the camera and to learn out of it.
After a period of 6 months we realized we were able to take near professional quality pictures which could appeal the viewers. Gradually our focus turned towards using our hobby in a business so that we would get more opportunities to explore in our field of interest and it appeared with prospectus to earn as well.
The initial phase
When we decided to shoot professional quality photographs for money, the question was about marketing. Our methodical analysis for a period of two weeks, made us clear about the potential marketplace to sell ourselves. That is to start from students and institutions where we could get considerable opportunities. Initially we spoke with our Head of the department to shoot for a function conducted by our association. Obviously they were reluctant and not ready to take risk with new comers.
To overcome this, we got their permission to shoot the function along with the college appointed photographer. Of course for free of cost. Everyone agreed that our snaps are not bad or unacceptable. But they felt it could be competitive if some more practice is done.
We spent another 2 months in keenly studying the photographs of our family functions and other occasions to understand the nuances of the art. We tried shooting as a secondary photographers to few more functions and finally at the end of 9 months since we started this initiative we had been accepted as photographers. Our first serious assignment was the inauguration of a student’s club where we demonstrated our skills without any disbelief from anyone. This was how our journey started.
The marketing strategy
We were able to win the opportunities for most of the functions happened in our college and every time our quality was seen improving. Our charges were very attractive compared with other professionals but there was no compromising in the quality. When we managed to shoot for most of the occasions in our college we started marketing ourselves in other colleges. The internet was extremely helpful in serving as a platform for our marketing. Our facebook page was made popular in the nearby colleges by word of mouth and mail forwards.
The photographs taken by us were displayed in the public domains like flikr and Picasso, where we use to get hundreds of views and comments which are instrumental in shaping ourselves further apart from gaining us a wonderful popularity. We were able to create a network of acquaintances across colleges, clubs and associations from whom we were able to get business. In most of the situation we proved to be the most appropriate choice for them due to our competitive pricing.
Our achievements:
The achievements in our journey happened so far is
1. The opportunity to shoot the convocation function happened in our college, where we shot the precious moment of 450 degree holders, the pride and happiness in their parents’ faces and the exhilaration of the whole environment. This gave us enormous good will across the departments and the college management.
2. The special occasion called ‘TechNic’ – the inauguration of industry-university association wing- which happened in the university campus won accolades for our work from the vice chancellor of the university and the honorable guests.
Conclusion
We have shared our story in which a hobby was transformed to business due to our continuous learning spirit and curiosity towards mastering an art. The next phase of our activities will be aiming at encouraging more student groups towards entrepreneurship and similar initiatives.

A Sample Product Abstract
[This is just to illustrate the format and the flow of the expected product abstract. It may be modified appropriately based on your case.]
“Low cost blood pressure monitor”
Introduction
In a country like India, where the population has crossed 1 billion, adequate health care services are still unfeasible. The modern lifestyle with changing food culture is a colossal threat to the healthy living of a citizen. The advancement in the science and technology is steadily addressing the problems in providing quality healthcare to everyone. Low cost blood pressure monitor is one such product developed by us four electronics and communication engineering students to support our population against the most common disease seen across the country.
The spark behind this innovation
'Blood pressure' is known as the silent killer, since it is not identified in most of the cases in a timely manner. The only place where a common man can check the blood pressure is in a hospital which cannot be done frequently. There are some devices already available for this purpose, but with two major drawbacks. The first one is the price which is not affordable for everyone and the second one is the usability. The significance of this issue was realized by us when many of the elders in our families were requiring a product of this kind every single day.
During a technical symposium in our college, we were asked to think about the areas in which we need to bring down the technology to the benefit of ordinary people. Without much delay we identified this was one of the major places where something needs to be done to solve the common problem. We proposed this idea in front of a panel of professors and requested them to recommend inventing a product of this kind to the health care ministry of the government or some private concerns. They simply diverted the question on us, "why should not you guys take this responsibility?" This made us to think in really a different pattern, whether possible or not, why should not we explore the unknown territories and put some efforts for the sake of our own people. Without second thought we drafted a plan with the help of our professors and started working on it.
The development of concept
We spent nearly two weeks in understanding the working principles of conventional analog blood pressure monitor. We had to sit with the medical officer of our college for half a day to understand clearly about the biological aspects of blood pressure and the related details. When we got a clear idea about what needs to be done we started planning about how it has to be done. Our electronics department professors and the medical instrumentation experts of our university helped us to draft down the exact plan and basically it appeared like this.
The reasons behind competitive pricing.
The components required for the entire development of the product are not manufactured specially for this purpose. Customized manufacturing of components will increase the price against the name ‘low cost BPM’. So we identified the commonly used components like ball point pen refills, printed circuit boards, relays available in automobile stores, multipurpose switches and similar items. They are not designed or manufactured specially for our instrument. So the cost to assemble a device came down a lot. Moreover for electronic components like integrated circuits we contacted the vendors who supply to our college laboratories and managed to get a good discount. All these factors really helped us to justify the name ‘low cost BPM’
Assurance about the quality
The ultimate precision could not be achieved in the first attempt. We had to rework our design and the setting nearly more than 60 times to achieve the perfect calibration of our device. We chose a set of 10 people with different age groups and physical parameters and tested our device against them along with the conventional monitors. After a strenuous testing and rework we were able to attain the present status of perfection.
Precious moments
Our product was displayed in the 20th annual medical exhibition, Bangalore and observed by many experts and doctors. It was selected as one of the best innovations of the exhibition and made us all proud.
Conclusion
A spark of idea can do wonders if it is carefully preserved with the spirit of realizing it. The technology can be applied to help us in several challenges of our everyday life, for which we cannot expect some industry or government to step in. Having basic understanding of science and technology we certainly can materialize our ideas when we have the perseverance and smart work. We believe strongly that our story will encourage young engineers to think beyond text books and to contribute to the real world.

Sample products:
1. A Liquid cooling system for processor in computers. (Electrical)
Conventionally the processors in computers are cooled by a fan attached in the circuit board. Due to recent increase in the processor capacity they tend to get hotter in a short span of time. The space constraint does not allow incorporating bigger fans inside the cabinets. So we have designed a small water cooling system which can fit inside the cabinet of a computer to provide effective cooling. Basically we have assembled a water container of 30 cc with a set of 25 micro tubes which can function as a conveyor for water around the mother board.
2. Fire detector for home.(Electronics)
Fire detectors are very common in corporate buildings or public places. But they are not very common houses due to their cost and the complexity in installation. We have designed a very simple portable system which does not require intricate wiring or very costly components. This is has been designed for houses from 750 square feet to 4000 square feet. Testing has been done in our college building and the efficiency has been proved no lesser than the professional fire detectors.
3. Coconut opener (Mechanical)
Coconut is a very common thing available in kitchens all over the world. But using it instantaneously has a difficulty in the form of opening its shell. A device has been invented to break the shell with just the power of your hands. The basic level mechanism is used in the device where the coconut is placed in between the iron rods and they crack the shell when pressure is applied in the shaft provided. The unique design of the zigzag rods boost up the force and break the shell. The device is found to be less weight and very flexible to use.
4. Mobile based personal organizer tool for student information management
Mobile phones have become an inevitable equipment of everyone and they have proved themselves as a potential tool for many areas of applications including entertainment. There are many applications available for mobiles for personal planning, but they are all very generic and may not be addressing the needs of a specific community. Being students we could understand the challenges of the student community in managing their everyday challenges including projects, academic schedules, assignments, placement activities and personal interests. So we have developed an Android based tool which can run in mobiles and solve the information management problems of students.
5. Temperature controlled Jacket. (Textile and electronics)
We use different kinds of outfits for different climatic conditions. Usually they are designed for some specific kind of weather. The change in weather does not happen abruptly, but it has gradual changes over a period of time. So we have designed a temperature controlled jacket which can provide various sensations on different temperatures. This has been achieved by collaborating modern textile developments with the temperature sensor technologies of electronics.
