A Fresh Perspective


Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” - Henry Ford

The benefit of being a start-up is that you keep learning all the time. The learning itself becomes the joy and the achievement. The knowledge can come from any direction and from anyone. The important thing is to embrace the new knowledge and the new perspectives.

April brought with itself an opportunity for the iKure team to gain new perspectives from four students of management from XIMB (Xavier Institute of Management Bhubaneswar). Arnab Neogi, Vidhi Sharma, Abhiroop Saha and Abhishek Jobanputra joined us for an 8 week summer internship to help us solve a few business puzzles. Since it’s the first time such a batch of management students has joined iKure, and we intend to follow this practice in the near future as well, so we have called their gang as ‘Cohort One’.

After having spent a good fortnight with them, all we can say is that this bunch is fun-loving, ambitious, hard working, intelligent, curious and eager to learn. We have been gaining a very fresh view on how we operate as a team and as an enterprise and we are sure together we will be able to meet their project objectives.

As we progress through the remaining days of their internship, we will have more stories to share about their successes and key inputs. So keep checking this space!
