The University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) has opened a change-making competition among students in which they would come up with tangible business plans based on innovative ideas, keeping the needs of society in view.
Senior Tutor Office's Young Development Corps UAF, in collaboration with the YES Network Pakistan, arranged a two-week change-making competition in which 40 students have been enrolled and are given seed money to initiate a business plan. YES Network CEO Ali Raza Khan, Senior Tutor Dr Shaukat Ali, Dr Umair Gull and Research Associate Nehal Ahmad Khan addressed the inaugural session.
YES Network CEO Ali Raza Khan said that everyone was born with the unique talent which must be identified to excel in life and unlock the change-making power.
He said that they facilitated several hundred young people every year to begin their first-ever, change-making journey.
Senior Tutor Dr Shoukat Ali urged the students to identify their hidden abilities and to refurbish them in order to find a path to progress and prosperity in life.
He said that in the changing era, due to the shrinking job market, the avenue of entrepreneurship was opened for the enthusiastic people.
The art of entrepreneurship enabled oneself to become a job provider rather than a job seeker.
Dr Umair Gull said that the university was taking all possible measures to provide a platform for students so that they could exhibit their God-given abilities.
