WE Hub launches Campuspreneur

WE Hub Foundation on Friday launched its flagship student entrepreneurship initiative, called Campuspreneur, under the Grassroot Youth Innovation Programme (GYIP), a structured 12-week ideation-to-prototype journey for young innovators.

GYIP is targeted at strengthening the innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystem across Tier 2 and Tier 3 regions of Telangana by systematically enabling students with structured mentorship, industry exposure, and institutional support.

Campuspreneur is designed to help students transform innovative ideas into validated and viable business models through structured training, mentorship, prototype development, and ecosystem exposure. The programme received 112 idea registrations, of which 57 high-potential teams comprising 143 student entrepreneurs were selected for cohort one. The cohort represents 26 colleges from nine districts in Telangana, and participation extending to Pune and Navi Mumbai.

Campuspreneur will support academic institutions in establishing and managing their own incubation centres to promote sustainable campus entrepreneurship ecosystems.

CEO, WE Hub, Sita Pallacholla said: “Campuspreneur is about empowering girls, not just as job-seekers, but as job-creators. By equipping them with the right skills, we are enabling them to build confidence, formalise their ideas, and step into entrepreneurship, as a pathway to economic independence and leadership.”
