Book Description
About the Book

Stay Hungry Stay Foolish is the story of 25 such IIM Ahmedabad graduates who chose the rough road of entrepreneurship. They are diverse in age, in outlook and the industries they made a mark in. but they have one thing in common: they believed in the power of their dreams. This book seeks to inspire young Bschool graduates to look beyond placements and salaries. To believe in their dreams.

Forward

It is indeed very satisfying to write the foreword for a very different kind of book, one on the entrepreneurship of the alumni of IlM Ahmedabad. The Institute is already well known globally for the quality of the post-graduate programmes in management it offers. It is now increasingly getting recognized for the innovativeness and the entrepreneurship of its alumni. In this book, Rashmi Bansal, herself an alumnus of IIMA, describes how twenty-five alumni of the Institute chose the path less trodden and successfully built new businesses and organizations. Written in a conversational style, the book lucidly captures how these individuals, with fire in their bellies and stars in their eyes, overcame the odds to realize their dreams of being their own masters as they ventured into uncharted territories, some with little else than a belief in themselves. The book should be a 'must read' not just for students of management but for all youngsters as it would inspire them to dream the forbidden and achieve the impossible.

The book was commissioned by the Centre for Innovation, Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CUE), IIMA. The funding for the project was provided by the Wadhwani Foundation. On behalf of the Institute I thank the Foundation for providing the funding support.

Even as I pen the foreword, I realize that many more alumni of IIMA have become entrepreneurs. This is the first attempt to document the insights and experiences of IIMA entrepreneurs. The Institute will continue such endeavours through books, cases, documentaries and other modes of communication to inspire and instill the 'can do' spirit of entrepreneurship in the younger generations.
