Dr. Anil Pant, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Aptech Limited said, “It is so heartening to know that over 800+ alumni collectively from our brands MAAC, Arena, and Lakme Academy powered by Aptech, that we know of have embraced the entrepreneurial life and are providing jobs to other people. Not just that, an Aptech alumnus comes back to his alma mater to hire more creating a virtual cycle. In fact, one of the successful entrepreneurs who is an alumnus of Aptech employs about 1500 people which is almost 3 times the size of Aptech itself, and it is such a matter of pride for us. Seeing this potential in our students we have the confidence that e-Cell would be very valuable to our students who need a push and some guidance. I hope this entrepreneurial cell does extremely well and all the entrepreneurs who come out of Aptech flourish and grow tremendously. I wish them all the best.”

Dr. Anuj Kacker, President & Executive Director, Aptech Limited said, “In the last one decade, during our many interactions with the students and alumni at Aptech and across our various training brands- be it Arena Animation, MAAC or Lakme Academy Powered by Aptech, we realised that the student’s aspirations are steadily evolving. Gone are the days when a student only wanted to acquire skill sets to get a job or work with studios. While most still want a job, there are dreamers and a growing demand from young students who do not want a job, but instead are keen to do something of their own – have an entrepreneurial way of life. Not knowing ‘how to’, what our students looked for was proper guidance, handholding to kickstart their entrepreneurial journey. Through e-Cell, it is our humble start of an intent to fulfil their value aspirations. It is our responsibility to be able to provide sufficient inputs to our students to help them embark upon this journey.”
