Knowledge is an asset that a student can acquire by learning and enhancing their skills

I was inspired by the model developed by Carnegie-Mellon University, where the success of Education, Incubation, and Technology Park is under one roof. So, we envisioned and created Rathinam Techzone, a campus with various institutions, encompassing the spectrum of Pre-KG to Ph.D. Education, Technology Parks, including a Special Economic Zone (SEZ), and Atal Incubation Centre. There are 5000 students enrolled under the institutions and more than 20+ companies located inside the IT Park and SEZ, backing more than 2500 employees. Therefore, knowledge is an asset that a student can acquire by learning and enhancing their skillsets.


Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other

Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other. Leaders need to provide leadership opportunities for others to foster growth and share responsibility for attaining goals. Effective leaders communicate promptly and listen to the concerns and ideas of the group. Rathinam always believes in 360-degree feedback and encourages employees through positivity, training, and motivating them to attain the success of the employees and the institution.

To educate and aware students of entrepreneurship as a future aspect. 

Students were not much aware of the practical learning methodologies especially during Internships at industries. Also, to make them curious about different ways of approach. To generate their interest in innovation, creativity and especially in research.
