Beyond Academics

Your experience at King’s College will of course, not only be limited to academics. For this, you will always find a safe and engaging space for you to pursue your interests and passions at the campus. We have established a number of “Centers” over the years that lead projects in various areas including student engagement, education innovation, knowledge creation, community & industry engagement and entrepreneurship.

King’s Incubator can help you in your journey to become an entrepreneur. The center  supports aspiring entrepreneurs through training, mentoring, networking and seed-fund. Even entrepreneurs outside King’s College can participate in the Incubator’s programs. The center has helped incubate over 43 ventures, created over 198 jobs and supported over 1000 jobs.

The studies explore local innovations and disseminate the learnings to a wide range of audience including students, policymakers, professionals, and business leaders.
