Insightful Talk On Challenges Of Entrepreneurship

-
Mr. Ramarao Kalapure, the Founder of Eco Village, Lavasa, was present on CIML campus yesterday, 14th October 2019 to address students of PGDM batch on the challenges of entrepreneurship. Mr. Ramarao is an embodiment of courage and perseverance and his real life story is a living example of the same. He has been an ardent admirer of nature and left his plush job in the corporate sector to start Eco Village, which offers a getaway for those who are enchanted by nature.

 Elucidating his individual narratives, Mr. Kalapure spoke about the challenges he faced initially when he decided to set up the Eco Village. He had no resources, his friends had no faith in his idea of a nature resort and they did not comply with his wishes. He was wary of going for a bank loan as he was unsure about repaying the monthly loan instalments. He was however relentless and with an indomitable will he decided to ahead with his dream project. His innate confidence and conviction that the sprawling natural beauty would attract city dwellers, spurred him on. His resolute self-belief helped him through the initial days of struggle. His trials and tribulations bear a testimony to his grit and determination and in reality. He is living his dream today, amidst the hills that he loves and which also provide him with a source of livelihood.

 It was a great learning experience for the students and they showed keen interest in listening to Mr. Ramarao Kalapure’s personal anecdotes. The students asked practical and pertinent questions and which proved their interest in the subject.
