Entrepreneurship Development Council of India (EDCI)

About

Empowering Entrepreneurs. Enabling Growth. Building India’s Business Future.

Entrepreneurship Development Council of India, EDCI, is a growing entrepreneurship development platform created to support entrepreneurs, startups, MSMEs, mentors, students, institutions, consultants, and ecosystem partners across India.

EDCI aims to bring the entrepreneurship ecosystem a one-to-one structured platform where business owners can showcase their work, access practical guidance, connect with mentors, participate in training programs, explore growth opportunities, and build stronger business networks.

We believe that every entrepreneur deserves the right platform, the right knowledge, and the right support to transform an idea into a sustainable enterprise.

Our Purpose

EDCI has been created with a clear purpose — to make entrepreneurship support more accessible, practical, and connected.

From early-stage entrepreneurs to growing MSMEs, the platform is designed to help individuals and businesses move forward with better clarity, stronger visibility, and meaningful ecosystem support.

Our Vision
To build an inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystem that enables individuals and enterprises across India to grow from idea stage to sustainable business success.
Our Mission
To provide entrepreneurs with access to practical knowledge, mentorship, training, business visibility, funding guidance, and community support through a digital-first platform.

Why EDCI Matters

Many entrepreneurs have strong ideas, products, or services but lack visibility, structured guidance, documentation support, mentoring, and access to the right network. EDCI aims to bridge this gap by creating a common platform where entrepreneurs can learn, connect, present, and grow.

Whether someone is starting a business, scaling an MSME, preparing for funding, building market visibility, or looking for expert guidance, EDCI is designed to support that journey.
