Ehimay Shankar, a student of Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram, and a member of The InnoPreneurs Club, participated in the prestigious Young Innovator’s Program 2025, an internship initiative organised by Hero MotoCorp, India’s leading two-wheeler manufacturer.

The final leg of the program culminated in a pitch presentation by the students, showcasing their learning and ideas, followed by a certificate distribution ceremony to honor their successful completion of the program.
Accelerate Pre-College Program – Northeastern University @ DPS RK Puram
As part of an international entrepreneurship program involving youth from over eight schools, students were introduced to fundamental business principles used by innovators around the globe on 26th and 27th June. This initiative was part of a broader International Entrepreneurship Pre‑college Program hosted by Northeastern University, with mobile bootcamps in locations like Mumbai and New Delhi. The bootcamps are part of the Accelerate Pre-College Programs portfolio (https://precollegeprograms.northeastern.edu), which includes residential programming options at the university’s US (Boston, Oakland) campuses and UK (London) campus
Their mission was to help students conceive innovative solutions by putting classroom theory directly into practice.
Bridging Theory and Product Development
At the core of their learning was the concept of a value proposition—understanding who their customers are, what they truly need, and how their solution uniquely meets that need. In class discussions, students learned that defining a compelling value proposition is critical: it lays the foundation for designing products that people genuinely want.
What was especially inspiring was how they transitioned from theory to tangible prototypes. Each team:
- Identified a real-world problem (for instance, portable tooth-cleaning kits for travel, biodegradable floss alternatives, or smart reminders to brush).
- Crafted a clear value proposition, expressing it in terms of customer benefit—e.g., “Helps busy kids brush properly, even on school mornings.”
- Developed solutions, often using recycled or eco-friendly materials, and even basic electronics for reminder alerts.
- Presented their ideas, pitching to peers and mentors, simulating the investor feedback process entrepreneurs undergo.
This exercise didn’t just teach product design fundamentals—it immersed students in the full innovation pipeline: empathize with users, ideate solutions, build, test, and pitch. The topics which were highlighted were:
- Value proposition as the keystone: Learning to define what makes a product meaningful—what it offers, to whom, and why it matters—is the essential first step in any entrepreneurial journey.
- Experiential entrepreneurship in action: Northeastern’s model, highlighted in its Accelerate Pre‑College Programs, emphasizes exactly this journey—from ideas to prototypes to pitches—within a supportive, real-world framework
- Global collaboration and impact: Bringing students together from multiple schools and even countries broadened perspectives and underscored that great ideas can come from anyone, anywhere.
Overall, the project was a wonderful example of learning by doing, showing that when students grasp business principles like the value proposition—and then immediately apply them—they can invent truly meaningful products. And with more than eight schools participating, this international initiative is helping shape the next generation of globally minded, innovation-driven entrepreneurs.
