"and don't forget uh startups have a hard time uh when it comes to hiring great people and they're always short of great people they're not short of people they're always short of great people"

"and we feel that the startup ecosystem is going to face that problem and it's going to face that problem in a plenty at the same time uh we see that there are a lot of talented individuals out there uh who are wanting a business education to break into the startup ecosystem system but are not able to go to traditional Business Schools"

"we have worked backwards from what the industry needs are uh not by researching or or by just talking to these uh people uh the way we are kind of working backwards is by getting the industry involved in the teaching learning process"

"the kind of jobs that we are going to be targeting are the ones that at least we felt that was the most palpable uh need for in the ecosystem right now when we had conversations with 50 plus startup CEOs these these were roles that that at least we like to call as organization building roles"

"these are roles where young graduates get to work directly with uh CEOs with svps these are roles like Founders office roles product manager roles p&l leader roles marketing and growth roles and so on and so forth"

"we are working backwards from creating an entrepreneur mindset okay so graduating class at Mesa should all have an entreprene mindset now that is basically a collection of competencies and skills that one should have if they want to succeed and thrive in a fast moving fast changing environment"

"for a Traditional School most of the classes will be taught by an academician and for from a networking point of view they will have these events maybe a few times a year where for a few hours a lot of Industry folks will come and interact with maybe 300 400 500 students at one time for us that's not the case there's only a group of 60 students uh and most of the workshops and most of the content is actually taught by industry practitioners or startup leaders"

"we'll just get students to do sales uh so you learn Concepts first you understand what you need to be careful about right then you start doing sales you pick this cup and show me how to sell 100 of these cups you have Bangalore you have this budget I don't care how you sell it"

"business education in India needs to be changed and this is the way to do it"

"our team is actually going the entire learning and experience team is going to be situated or collocated in the same campus as the students so we are actually going to get daily feedback from students on what's happening what's not working and we can actually make changes if not on a day we can make changes in 10 days to what's working and what's not working"

"our first batch is starting September 2023"
